تعرف الخرسانة التي يتم تحضيرها في منشأة مركزية ثم يتم تسليمها إلى موقع العمل في شاحنات جاهزة للوضع باسم الخرسانة الجاهزة أو المخلوطة مسبقا. تأتي في ثلاثة أنواع: الخرسانة المختلطة المركزية ، والشاحنات أو الخرسانة المختلطة ، والخرسانة المختلطة.
تخضع الخرسانة المختلطة المركزية للخلط والخلط الكامل للمكونات في المصنع. ثم يتم نقلها إلى الموقع في شاحنة محرض تدور بين 2 إلى 6 دورة في الدقيقة.
في الخرسانة المختلطة بالشاحنات أو الخرسانة المختلطة ، يتم تجميع المكونات في المصنع وخلطها في الشاحنة ، وتدور بين 4 إلى 16 دورة في الدقيقة ، إما أثناء النقل أو قبل تفريغ الخرسانة في الموقع مباشرة.
يتم خلط الخرسانة المتقلصة جزئيا في المصنع وخلطها بالكامل في الشاحنة ، وتدور بين 4 إلى 16 دورة في الدقيقة في طريقها إلى الموقع.
تضمن الخرسانة الجاهزة جودة موحدة من خلال الخلط المتحكم فيه ، وتستخدم شاحنات المحرض لتجنب الفصل ، وهي قابلة للتكيف للاستخدام في المواقع المزدحمة أو عند الحاجة إلى الخرسانة بشكل متقطع.
وفقا لإرشادات ASTM ، يجب ألا يتجاوز خلاط الشاحنة 300 دورة لتجنب الفصل ، ويجب وضع الخرسانة في غضون 90 دقيقة من بدء الخلط.

الخرسانة الجاهزة

Ready Mixed Concrete

<div dir='rtl'>
الخرسانة الجاهزة، والمعروفة أيضًا باسم الخرسانة المختلطة مسبقًا، يتم تحضيرها في مصنع مركزي ثم نقلها في شاحنات إلى مواقع البناء حيث تكون جاهزة للصب. يتم تصنيف هذا النوع من الخرسانة إلى مختلطة مركزيًا ومختلطة بشاحنة (أو مختلطة عبر النقل) ومختلطة بالانكماش. يتم تحضير الخرسانة المختلطة مركزيًا بالكامل في مصنع ونقلها إلى الموقع في شاحنات تحريك تدور بسرعة تتراوح من 2 إلى 6 دورة في الدقيقة. من ناحية أخرى، يتم تجميع المكونات في الخرسانة المختلطة بالشاحنات في المصنع ولكن يتم خلطها داخل الشاحنة بسرعة تتراوح من 4 إلى 16 دورة في الدقيقة، إما أثناء النقل أو قبل تفريغ الخرسانة مباشرةً. يتم تحضير الخرسانة المختلطة بالانكماش عن طريق تجميع المكونات وخلطها جزئيًا في المصنع، ثم خلطها بالكامل في الشاحنة التي تدور بسرعة تتراوح من 4 إلى 16 دورة في الدقيقة أثناء النقل إلى الموقع.
تُستخدم الخرسانة الجاهزة على نطاق واسع بدلاً من الخلط في الموقع نظرًا لمزاياها، مثل التوحيد المعزز بسبب الدفعات المتحكم فيها، والقدرة على تجنب الفصل أثناء النقل في شاحنات التحريك، والملاءمة للمواقع المزدحمة، والمشاريع التي تتطلب صب الخرسانة علي فترات صغيرة ومتقطعة تنص إرشادات ASTM C 94-05 على أنه يجب تفريغ الخرسانة قبل أن تكمل شاحنة الخلط 300 دورة أو في غضون 90 دقيقة من بدء الخلط لضمان جودة الخرسانة.

how ready-mixed concrete is delivered

Ready-mixed concrete is prepared at a centralized plant and then delivered by truck to a construction site. It arrives ready for placement, which makes it different from concrete mixed entirely on site.

Ready-mixed concrete includes three main forms: central-mixed, truck-mixed, and shrink-mixed. Central-mixed concrete is fully mixed at the plant and carried to the site in agitator trucks. These trucks rotate at 2 to 6 rpm, which helps keep the concrete in motion during transport.

Truck-mixed concrete is batched at the plant but mixed inside the truck. The mixing can happen during transit or just before the concrete is discharged. In this type, the truck rotates at 4 to 16 rpm.

Shrink-mixed concrete is also batched at the plant, but it is only partly mixed there. The truck finishes the mixing while traveling to the site, and it also rotates at 4 to 16 rpm. Ready-mixed concrete is often chosen instead of on-site mixing because controlled batching improves uniformity, agitator trucks help prevent segregation during transport, and it works well for congested sites and for small, intermittent pours.

ASTM C 94-05 gives a time limit for handling this material. The concrete must be discharged before the truck mixer completes 300 revolutions or within 90 minutes from the start of mixing. These limits help protect concrete quality.

mixing concrete

Concrete Mixer Types and Capacity

Concrete mixing creates a uniform blend of cement, aggregates, and paste. The goal is to coat the aggregates evenly with cement paste. Mixers used for this job are usually grouped into two main types: batch mixers and continuous mixers. Batch mixers handle one load at a time. They mix the materials thoroughly, discharge the batch, and then receive the next one. Continuous mixers work differently. They take in a steady flow of ingredients, mix them at a constant rate, and discharge the concrete...

mixing time

Concrete Mixer Charging and Timing

Concrete mixer charging and timing are key to making a uniform concrete mix with the needed strength. Mixing begins only after all ingredients are inside the mixer. The usual charging order starts with 10% of the water, then the solid materials are added steadily, followed by 80% of the water. The last portion of water is added later, within the first quarter of the total mixing period. The minimum mixing time depends on mixer capacity. Mixers with up to 1 cubic yard of capacity need at least...

pumped concrete

Concrete Pumping for Hard-to-Reach Sites

Concrete pumping moves large amounts of concrete through pipes to places that are hard to reach. It is used for sites such as deep foundation pits and other inaccessible locations. The system includes a hopper, a pump, and pipelines that carry the concrete to the placement point. Direct-acting pumps use a piston to move the concrete. Concrete enters the pump through the inlet valve by gravity and by suction created as the piston moves. The forward movement of the piston then pushes the...

placing concrete

Concrete Placement Methods and Compaction

Concrete placement methods focus on keeping the mix in a uniform shape and position. The concrete is placed as close as possible to its final location to reduce segregation, which is the separation of ingredients. It is then fully compacted to remove trapped air. The next layer is added while the layer below is still plastic, or soft enough to shape. The rate of placing and compacting concrete is kept equal. Concrete is laid in uniform layers, and hand shoveling is avoided. Moving concrete...

vibrating concrete

Concrete Compaction with Vibrators

Concrete compaction with vibrators helps newly poured concrete settle inside formwork and around reinforcement bars. The goal is to remove trapped air pockets and create a dense concrete mass. Mechanical vibration is a key part of that process. One common method uses an internal vibrator, also called a poker vibrator or immersion vibrator. It is quickly inserted through the full depth of the fresh concrete and slightly into the layer below, which is still in a plastic state. The vibrator is...

shotcrete

Shotcrete for Vertical and Overhead Surfaces

Shotcrete is a concrete spraying method used on vertical and overhead surfaces. It uses mortar or small aggregate concrete with a high cement content. The material is sprayed at high velocity, and the impact helps compact it so it can cling without sagging. Builders place shotcrete in layers until it reaches about 4 inches thick. The quality depends strongly on the operator’s skill in managing the nozzle. Careful nozzle control helps the material land evenly and build up properly. Shotcrete...

preplaced aggregate concrete

Concrete Placement for Tight Spaces

Preplaced aggregate concrete is used when a construction site is hard to reach. The process starts by wetting gap-graded coarse aggregates. This helps remove dirt from the stones. The aggregates are then placed in the form and compacted. Next, a mortar mix is pumped under pressure through slotted pipes to fill the spaces between the aggregates. The mortar usually contains Portland cement, pozzolan, fine aggregates, water, and a fluidizing aid. The pozzolan reduces bleeding and segregation and...

finishing concrete

Concrete Surface Finishing Steps

Concrete surface finishing begins right after the concrete has been placed and consolidated. The first step is screeding, which levels the surface by removing extra material until it is even with the top of the formwork. A screed is a straight edge used for this leveling step. After screeding, a bull float or darby is used to smooth the surface further. These tools help lower high spots, fill low areas, and push larger aggregate particles deeper into the concrete. This preparation should...

curing of concrete

How Curing Improves Concrete Strength

Curing helps concrete gain strength after it has set. It keeps the concrete moist and at the right temperature so cement hydration can continue. Hydration is the process where cement reacts with water in the water-filled capillary pores and forms the products that fill spaces in the paste. Dry air can interrupt this process by pulling water from the concrete surface. Concrete with a water-cement ratio below 0.5 can also lose water through self-desiccation, which means internal water is used up...

curing methods

Concrete Curing for Moisture Retention

Concrete curing for moisture retention helps fresh concrete keep the water it needs as it hardens. For members with a small surface-to-volume ratio, the forms are often oiled and moistened before the concrete is placed. These forms may stay in place for a long time to reduce moisture loss. If the form material can be wetted, it can also be kept damp. When forms are removed early, the concrete member is moistened and then covered with polythene sheets. Large horizontal concrete surfaces in dry...

accelerated curing of concrete

How Concrete Gains Strength Faster

Concrete can gain strength faster when heat and extra moisture speed up cement hydration. This faster hydration helps the concrete build early strength sooner than normal curing. The process is used when quicker hardening is needed after casting. One common method is steam curing. Concrete products may move through a chamber on a conveyor belt, or they may be encased in plastic so steam at atmospheric pressure can circulate around them. Steam curing starts with moist curing for about 3 to 5...
