Using a truck mounted Riemer Mobile Volumetric Batching
Plant foamed concrete can be freshly produced and placed
at any point of use, at rates up to 1m³/ minute, using a
truck mounted All County Concrete volumetric mobile mixer.
Foam concrete is cement bonded material manufactured
by blending a very fluid cement paste (slurry) and then
injecting stable, pre-formed foam into the slurry. The
volume of slurry to foam dictates the density of the foam
concrete.
The physical characteristics of foam concrete are
determined by various mix designs. These may include the
use of Portland Cement (CEM1 - 100%) either on its own
or in combination with a percentage of pulverised fly ash,
limestone dust or sand. Together with a pre-determined
volume of entrained air, this slurry becomes fresh foam
concrete, which has the appearance of a light grey foam.
The entrained air is produced using protien-based foaming
agent, PROVOTON.
