Fresh Concrete
Mixture of aggregates, cement, water and additives, dosed and mixed in a concrete manufacturing plant. Its quality gives it the strength characteristics that meet the specific legal requirements. Depending on its application on site, it can be used as mass concrete, reinforced concrete and pre- and post-tensioned concrete.

Field of application
- Mass: walls, paving in light traffic areas. Creation of dikes in the form of dams for harbours, counterweights in cranes or filler concretes.
- Reinforced concrete: building structures, bridges or other works. Used in foundations, slabs, columns, walls, screens, piles, etc.
- Pre- and post-tensioned concrete: in elements that are manufactured on site and subsequently installed at the point of use: beams, bridge decks, walls, etc.
Advantages
Concrete in its fresh state is a mouldable material, which allows it to adapt to any geometric shape.
- Mass concrete: quick and easy to apply with a small team of people. Homogeneity of the product and ease of transport to the point of use.
- Reinforced concrete: its specific formulation, and placement on site together with the reinforcement, provides resistance to compression and the necessary traction to transfer its characteristics to the structures.
- Pre- and post-tensioned concrete: allows for customised profiles on site. It provides the same load requests, with a smaller beam section, gaining in free space. It is the cleanest and quickest way to build a structure.
Application system
- Mass concrete: is that which is placed in a formwork, without reinforcement and has compressive strength.
- Reinforced concrete: requires internal reinforcement to provide tensile strength.
- Pre- and post-tensioned concrete: used to form a precast element, applying tension to the reinforcement before or after the concrete is poured into the mould.
In all cases, the concrete can be poured directly by bucket or pump.
