Concrete for deep foundations

Advantages:

• Easy application, speed of execution.
• Product homogeneity with suitable rheology.
• Improved work and cost performance, thanks to its fluidity and cohesiveness.
• We minimize problems at the start of supply with exhaustive monitoring by our lab technicians and engineers.

Field of application

Deep foundations type CPI / (Piling): the most common are CPI-4 direct pouring, large volume, and CPI-8 pouring with pump and “barrina” (auger).

Application system

• Diaphragm Walls: Minimum fluid consistency is required, although liquid consistency is recommended, and, in some applications, selfcompacting.
• Piling: CPI-4 (direct pouring). Same performance as for diaphragm walls.
• CPI-8 (PUMP + auger). Requires liquid consistencies, maximum aggregate size of 10mm, and minimum cement content of 350Kg/m³.
• Possibility of requiring stabilization at 3 hours depending on the project’s needs.
• Continuity of supply.
• In the Technical Building Code (CTE), cement contents exceeding 385 kg/m³ are often required.

Technical characteristics

* For strengths exceeding 40 MPa, a prior study will be necessary.
