Concrete designed with micro or macro fibers can be used either for structural applications, where the fibers can potentially substitute for steel rebar reinforcement, or for reducing shrinkage—primarily early age shrinkage. Macro fibers can significantly increase the ductility of concrete, making it highly resistant to crack formation and propagation.

Compacted in place and cured, roller-compacted concrete is a zero slump concrete with the abrasion resistance to withstand high velocity water—making it the material of choice for spillways and other infrastructure subject to high flow conditions. It represents a competitive solution in terms of cost and durability when compared to asphalt.

SCC has very high flow; therefore, it is self-leveling, eliminating the need for vibration. Due to the superplasiticizers used—chemical admixtures that impart very high flow—SCC exhibits very high compaction as a result of its low air content. Consequently, SCC can have very high strengths, exceeding 50 MPa.

Fluid concrete simplifies the process of laying pile foundation. Fields that were once covered with trees and grass are now covered with asphalt or concrete parking lots, driveways, sidewalks, roads and side streets. But as more of our diminishing land area gets paved over, a larger amount of rainwater ends up falling on these now impervious surfaces rather than soaking into the soil.

Because of its unique design mix, pervious concrete is a highly porous material that allows water, particularly rainwater, to filter through, reduces flooding and heat concentration by up to 4°C, and helps to prevent skidding on wet roads. This concrete is ideally used in parking lots, footpaths, and swimming pool border applications.
