READY-MIXED CONCRETE

READY-MIXED CONCRETESTANDARD CONCRETEIn its basic form, concrete is a mixture of cement, water, aggregates and other admixtures. This simple recipe varies based on the type and proportion of the ingredients, adapted to the requirements of each project. This produces a wide range of concretes whose characteristics, properties and appearance change depending on project needs.

Standard concrete is commonly used in both the construction industry and civil engineering. We pro-duce an entire range of concrete strength, from 15 to 100 MPa, with and without entrained air. Entrained air increases the concrete’s resistance to freeze-thaw cycles, thus ensuring the durability of structures exposed to harsh climates. It has numerous applica-tions: structural slabs, foundations, paths, driveways, sidewalks, curbs, cast concrete, patios, etc.

At Béton Provincial, we invest significant sums into research and development. Our quality control department is continually working to test different types of concrete, with constantly improving properties. Our concrete is increasingly high- performing, both in its strength and durability.

SUPERPLASTICIZED CONCRETEA superplasticizer is an admixture used in the preparation of concrete. It improves the flow characteristics of concrete, increasing its workability without affecting its mechanical properties. The superplasticizer therefore reduces the water/cement ratio in the concrete mixture, which increases its mechanical strength and makes it easier to install.

THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT TYPES OF STANDARD CONCRETE:

THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT TYPES OF STANDARD CONCRETE:

FIBRE-REINFORCED CONCRETEFibre-reinforced concrete contains a new generation of high-strength synthetic structural fibres.

UseFibre-reinforced concrete is easy to use: it produces an excellent finish, and pumps without difficulty. It is particularly recommended for commercial, indus-trial, agricultural and residential floor slabs. It is also used in concrete patching and for many other appli-cations.

CharacteristicsAdded fibres reduce the size and spread of cracks in concrete. Depending on the mixture used, fibre- reinforced concrete improves a product’s post-cracking properties and homogeneity. It also is characterized by increased resistance to impact and structural properties that are similar to or greater than those of wire mesh concrete.

AdvantagesFibre-reinforced concrete provides three-dimensional reinforcement due to its fibre density. It can mean you don’t have to reinforce floor slabs with steel frames, thus saving time and money. Its tensile strength is comparable or superior to that of standard reinforced concrete.

Using fibre-reinforced concrete may therefore reduce the number of people required on site to install rebar, wire mesh or other framing. This substantially reduces on-site construction time. From their experi-ence, contractors have estimated that it takes 10 fewer days to build a 100,000 ft2 floor using fibre-reinforced concrete, considering that 2 to 3 workers can install 10,000 ft2 per day of rebar, on average.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE CONCRETE (HPC)High-performance concrete is manufactured with cement containing 5% to 10% silica fume. As needed, up to 20% of the cement can be replaced with minerals or volcanic aggregates. HPC has very high compressive strength (above 50 MPa), with exceptional properties in the short and long term. It is recommended for projects that will be subjected to high mechanical loads:

› tall buildings› bridges› reservoirs› construction in marine environments› etc.

ROLLER-COMPACTED CONCRETERCC: A TOP CHOICE FOR GREAT DURABILITY WITH LOW MAINTENANCE COSTSRoller-compacted concrete is increasingly used for all types of roadways that require strength and sturdiness. The reason is simple: roller-compacted concrete pairs standard concrete performance with the simplicity of asphalt. It is all the more valuable due to its greater longevity and its lower cost than standard concrete. Considering the low amount of maintenance required, RCC is a great choice for a number of different applications.

RCC contains the same components as basic con-crete: cement, water, aggregates and additives, but in different ratios. For example, it contains from 75% to 85% of aggregates. When compacted, the aggregates are pushed closer together, which reduces the amount of air in the mix, and increases the concrete’s density. RCC is dry enough to be compacted by vibratory rollers, but moist enough spread evenly. It can therefore be used as a pavement and also as a concrete product for building dams, parking lots, platforms, etc.

The advantages of RCC

SPEED A roadway built using RCC can be open to vehicles 48 to 72 hours following its application.

DURABILITY RCC pavement is strong and durable. It withstands the action of very heavy loads, even in adverse conditions.

LOW MAINTENANCE Roller-compacted concrete requires few repairs throughout its useful life. It does not need any waterproof coating or resurfacing. Aside from occasional cleaning, the maintenance requirements for RCC are minimal.

LOW COST Placing roller-compacted concrete costs relatively little. Since it has excellent durability and requires little maintenance, roller-compacted concrete is extremely cost-effective.

ECO-FRIENDLY RCC pavement is eco-friendly. Cement additives other than Portland cement can be added, such as fly ash (more energy-efficient).

TERCIMTercim cement and blended hydraulic cements are used to produce concrete at Béton Provincial. Tercim uses a unique process in North America: a high-effi-ciency mixer prepares GUb-SF binary binders, GUb-SF/F ternary binders, along with custom hydraulic binders.

Since 2004, over 10 million cubic metres of concrete have been produced with Tercim cements in Quebec and in the Maritime provinces. Tercim’s cements meet and exceed the Canadian and American industry standards, including ASTM, CSA and BNQ standards. These high-quality cements are adapted for the condi-tions in our northern climate. They are designed for all types of work: residential, commercial, industrial, mining and energy-related.

All of our cements are available in “big bag” formats, from 1,000 to 1,500 kg.

Tercim is a 100% Quebec-owned company, and our Tercim cements comply with all of the CSA standard requirements.

List of our Tercim cements› GU – general usage cement

› GU-LA – low-alkali cement

› GUb-SF – silica fume cement

› GUb-SF/F – ternary cement with fly ash

› Fly ash – class F

› GUb-F (F-x) – low-alkali cement mix with fly ash (dosage of 5 to 35%)

LOW-ALKALI CEMENTSTercim also supplies low-alkali cements GU-LA, which use local aggregates. These cements prevent the alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR), caused by certain types of aggregates during concrete production. They therefore meet the requirements as prescribed by the Quebec Department of Transportation (Quebec DOT). The use of cement in Tercim binary and terna-ry binders is an excellent additional step in prevent-ing the AAR.

Tercim is one of the only low-alkali cement suppliers in Quebec.

29

TAILOR-MADE CEMENTSTercim also manufactures custom binders to meet precise needs in concrete performance and durability. No matter your needs, whether generic or specific, our customizable cement can provide different levels of performance for your project.

NBSL cementNBSL cement is a ternary binder that was custom- designed by Béton Provincial for the New Champlain Bridge construction project in Montreal. Named for the “New Bridge Saint-Lawrence,” it is made up of a mix of Portland cement, silica fume and fly ash. Béton Provincial has conducted several tests to develop a cement to meet the client’s very specific needs and criteria. This research paid off, because NBSL was used in the Construction project CANSTOR #10 and #11 at Gentilly-2. Tercim installations are ISO 9001 certified.
