| Transit
Mixer & Concrete Pump |
INTRODUCTION In
a Ready Mix Concrete (R M C) batching plant, there are two units.
1. Mixing
unit
2. Delivery unit
The transit mixer and concrete pumps are the delivery units of a RMC plant. The
transit mixer used to deliver the RMC of same workability and quality at work
site and the concrete pump is used to deliver the RMC at the desired place as
per requirements. Before discussing about Transit mixer and concrete pump, must
discuss about the significance of RMC Significance
of RMC The
mechanisms of deterioration of concrete due to various physical, chemical, biological
and environmental pollutants are widely researched. In search of possible reasons
of non performance of concrete on the face of such voluminous researched. It is
necessary to recognize the interactive nature of various factors such as there
is interaction between various aggressiveness temperature and humidity as well
as the nature of resultant concrete, e.g. PH value, chloride bounding, electrical
resistivity etc. The distress to concrete structures is quiet often due to non
adherence to the requirements of specifications. The areas a of non compliance
not only related to the appropriateness of ingredients of concrete , adequacy
of mix properties, but also to workmanship-notably placing, compaction and curing
of concrete. Specifications are often difficult to check on site. That results
in difficulties is ensuring compliances of specifications and certainty regarding
quality achieved. RMC can play a significant role in ensuring quality and durability
of concrete that goes in to the structures.
RMC is a revolutionary product, which metamorphosed the entire construction industry.
It is a factory made, quality product produced by skilled persons with the help
of advanced state-of-the art of technology.
The advanced state-of-the art of technology means play of machineries for the
fruitful production of RMC. The RMC plant mixer should always computerized. Here
only deals about the transit mixer and concrete pump - the delivery units of RMC-.
Transit mixer that ensure timely delivery of concrete of same workability and
quality at the work site.
The concrete pump is used to deliver the concrete at the desired place as per
requirements. TRANSIT
MIXER The
name itself gives a picture of the machine. Basically it is a vehicle with a rotating
mixing drum. The drum is rotating during the traveling of the vehicle to the work
site. This rotation of the mixer drum ensures the concrete of same workability
and quality. Transit mixer used only in RMC plants and which timely deliver the
concrete to the work site. Parts
of transit mixer. 1.
Auxiliary frame.
