Saving in UltraTech Concrete |
| Wastages in Site Mixing: Cement spillage, shortages in quantity of aggregate and sand during delivery, storage and mixing at site, leftover aggregates after completion of concreting results in approx 5-7% wastage. |
All these wastages are avoided with UltraTech Concrete as it takes care of all ingredients and the ready-to-use product is delivered to the site. |
| Wastage of concrete during handling: Spillage during transporting from the mixer to the point of placing is unavoidable and results in approx 0.5-0.7% wastage. |
UltraTech Concrete facilitates pumping of concrete to the point of placing and hence there is no wastage due to spillage etc. The leftover concrete in pump-hopper can be used for site casting. |
| Manpower Saving: For proportioning, mixing, transportation, placing, compaction and finishing a lot of manpower is required. The manpower increases with the increase in the number of floors. |
UltraTech Concrete requires minimal manpower (for compaction and finishing only). Manpower and infrastructure requirement will be the same irrespective of the number of floors. |
| Time Saving: A lot of time is required for concreting operations and the output is very low (3-4 cum/hr), thus prolonging construction time. |
UltraTech Concrete delivers large quantities of concrete through transit mixers at short intervals, increasing the output manifold (10-20 cum/hr), thus reducing construction time considerably. |
| Space Saving: Site mix concrete consumes lots of space to store cement, aggregates, sand, water, mixing equipment etc. |
UltraTech Concrete delivers the ready-to-use product and requires no extra storage space at the site. |
| Savings in House keeping Cost: Site mixing involves cost and time for continuous cleaning and housekeeping operations. |
UltraTech Concrete virtually eliminates all housekeeping and cleaning operations during concreting. |
| Saving in Testing Cost: High cost (20-22 Rs./cum) is involved in testing of ingredients as well as concrete in fresh and hardened state. |
UltraTech Concrete takes care of total testing of concrete supplied including raw materials. |
