01

Concrete Equipment

Match the equipment to how the concrete is produced and where it must go:

  • Concrete mixer (transit) truck — carries ready-mix from a batching plant to site, keeping it mixed on the way.
  • Self-loading concrete mixer — loads, batches, mixes and discharges on site where no plant is nearby.
  • Concrete pump — places concrete on slabs, columns, walls and upper floors quickly and precisely.

02

Typical Jobs

Floor slabs and roof slabs for apartment and commercial buildings, foundations and raft slabs, columns and shear walls, water tanks, culverts and small bridges, and rural projects where a self-loading mixer replaces a fixed plant.

03

Planning a Pour

Tell us the total volume, the expected pour rate, how high and how far the concrete must reach, and site access for trucks. For large pours, several mixer trucks are scheduled so the pump never waits.

04

Operator and Hire Terms

Mixer trucks, self-loading mixers and pumps are hired with operators. Per-pour, daily and monthly hire are available; the quote states the minimum hire, set-up and wash-out time, and who supplies the concrete.

05

What to Send for a Concrete Equipment Quote

Include:

  • total concrete volume and pour date;
  • pump reach needed: height (floors) and horizontal distance;
  • where the concrete comes from (plant name or on-site batching);
  • site location and access for trucks.

We supply the equipment and operators. The quote states who supplies the concrete — usually a batching plant you choose, or on-site batching with a self-loading mixer.

It depends on the pump; boom pumps reach several floors and line pumps push concrete further horizontally. Send the height and distance and we confirm a suitable pump.
