Before ordering
Before ordering, there are many things to think about when choosing concrete. Sometimes a lot of information and poor communication can lead to misunderstandings and delays. When it comes to concrete, time can be critical and is extremely important.
A few tips on what to consider when ordering concrete.
It is often built in new locations that cannot be found on maps and GPS. Our employees always try to find the best possible transport route, but the most important thing is that the type of concrete is the one you ordered and need. Are there any detours that are not shown on the map? Are any of the roads closed due to construction? Is there another easier route? Did other things happen along the way that we could not have predicted?
There must be enough space for the concrete mixer truck and the concrete pump to allow them to work safely in front of people and other property nearby. It is important that the conditions on the construction site are suitable for the handling of large loads. Axle load and load capacity limitations on the road must be taken into account, and especially in autumn and winter the ground can be loose, slippery and unstable, so it is better to look at and consider the situation on the construction site in advance. A steep slope (road gradient) may mean that we may have to reduce the amount of concrete transported by the mixer truck... These are all situations that can present challenges. The concrete mixer truck itself can weigh more than 32 tons! Think about these situations..
