Ready Mix Concrete Weybridge Case Study
Rapid Readymix, a reliable and experienced supplier of ready mix concrete, was tasked with a high-profile new build project in Weybridge, KT13. The project focused on renovating a seven-bedroom house, which is among the most expensive properties in the area. With the use of specialised concrete pumps and attention to detail, this case study aims to present how Rapid Readymix delivered quality concrete at competitive prices!
Job Background
Setting the Scene
This project was located in Weybridge, down a quiet road with accessible wide roads. The construction project was a redevelopment, and Rapid Readymix had been regularly supplying concrete to the site since 29th June 2023. Over 380m3 of concrete had been poured, reflecting the significant scale of the project.
Importance of Cleanliness
In this particular setting, maintaining cleanliness was paramount. The area’s peaceful roads and aesthetic appeal made it essential to minimise disruption and maintain high levels of cleanliness throughout the project.
Job Requirements
Quantities and Types of Concrete
The project required a precise amount of 80m3 of concrete, specifically using a C25 foundation mix all delivered on the same day in a single pour.
Scheduling and Communication
To minimse interruption of the pour the operation was coordinated with a quick turn-around time for trucks. Each mixer having only a 30-minute window between deliveries. Coordination between the logistics team, on-site staff, and drivers ensured that trucks were sequenced efficiently. This AggSmart system helped in managing the required amount of concrete effectively.
Constraints and Challenges
Access and Environmental Concerns
Access to the site was through a gated entrance, and only one truck was allowed on the estate at any given time. Noise control measures were also in place, which meant keeping the operation as quiet as possible. Work needed to be completed each day by 4 pm, adding a level of time sensitivity to the concrete delivery process.
Techniques and Hardware Used
Specialised Equipment and Planning
A 32m3 boom pump was deployed on-site to navigate certain obstacles. Trucks were called in one at a time to manage site constraints effectively. Good communication ensured that the pump was set up before the trucks arrived. Rapid Readymix utilised AggSmart technology to monitor truck movements and maintain site security.
Conclusion
Project Success
All pours were completed within the time constraints, and the client expressed satisfaction with the delivery and service. Notably, the client, a groundworks specialist, has been collaborating with Rapid Readymix for years on numerous projects across Surrey and the South East.
