Concrete Becoming TechCrete
This story discusses the advancements in the concrete industry and how ready-mix concrete has revolutionised the construction industry in the last two decades. It explores how recent innovations such as automated batching systems, utilisation of AI algorithms, deployment of the Internet of Things (IoT), implementation of GPS tracking systems, and introduction of non-destructive testing methods have enhanced precision, reduced the scope for human errors, and improved accuracy in concrete technology. The story also analyses how the introduction of ready-mix concrete (RMC), high-performance admixtures, and supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) has helped produce high-strength concrete more efficiently, improving workability and reducing labour requirements during placement.
