Innovations Transforming Efficiency and Quality in Ready-Mix Concrete Production

According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, The ready-mix concrete market size was valued at $448.0 billion in 2020, and is estimated to reach $704.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2021 to 2030.

Ready-mix concrete (RMC) is a mixture of water, additives, aggregates, and cement in a fixed proportion. Each of these ingredients is blended in proportions according to the standard code to achieve the desired durability and strength. Ready-mix concrete is more popular than regular concrete because of its convenience, ease of use, and quality. Ready-mix concrete is mainly used in the construction of residential and commercial buildings, production facilities, and roads.

Driving Demands:
Ready-mix concrete is a mixture of water, supplementary materials, aggregates, and cement in defined proportions. It is primarily used in residential & commercial buildings, manufacturing facilities, and roads. The demand for ready-mix concrete in the construction industry is increasing necessity for building materials and increasing concern toward strong construction. In this scenario, innovative technological integrations in the production process have left notable positive impacts.

Automated batching systems for optimized production

Automated batching systems accurately measure and mix ingredients. These systems reduce human error and confirm consistent quality in every batch. Producers make the most of the operations with minimal waste and improve real-time monitoring and data analysis. Automation speeds up the production process and allows for greater flexibility in meeting specific project requirements. For instance, MARCOTTE Batch is a best-of-breed, open software batching platform that has been successfully deployed and implemented in more than 1100 concrete plants globally. The software suite proposes a set of unique and innovative features that help producers manage, control, predict, and sustain their fully automated and optimized production process. In March 2021, Schwing Stetter joined forces with BASF to improve automated batching systems in the ready-mix concrete market. The new systems they developed used advanced sensors and real-time data analytics. This helped producers to customize mix designs on the fly to meet specific project needs.

In-transit concrete management system for actionable improvements

In-transit concrete management systems allow producers to maintain the quality of concrete during transportation to job sites. These systems observe the properties of concrete in real time. They enable automated adjustments to the required water and admixture levels. It helps maintain consistent functionality, reducing variability between batches, and ensuring high-quality delivery. For instance, the VERIFI® in-transit concrete management system is an IoT device that converts the properties of ready-mix concrete into quantifiable data, via truck-mounted sensors. The system uses data to manage concrete mixing in the drum; preprogrammed W/C settings. It is connected to the cloud so that all of the data collected from truck-mounted sensors is captured and analyzed over time for actionable ready-mix business improvements.

Smart mix dashboards for data visualization

Smart mix dashboards provide real-time insights and data visualization. Producers can easily monitor mix designs, ingredient proportions, and production metrics through the platforms. They have customized alerts and analytics that immediately identify problems and maintain consistency across batches. The technology enhances decision-making and streamlines communication between teams. As a result, smart mix dashboards are helping the industry improve efficiency, reduce waste, and deliver higher-quality concrete to customers. For example, Giatec Scientific's smart testing technology also monitors concrete properties-temperature, humidity, maturity, and strength-and analyzes data during the design, production, delivery, and placement of concrete. The company's sensors capture data in the field to help producers create efficiency and address problems before they arise.

Command Alkon's acquisition of Trimble's Construction

In November 2020, Command Alkon, the leading supplier collaboration platform for construction's heavy work, announced the completion of Command Alkon's acquisition of Trimble's Construction Logistics business. Financial terms were not disclosed. The transaction combines decades of telematics experience, customer relationships, and the TrimFleet suite of products for ready mix and bulk materials suppliers with Command Alkon's industry-specific fleet and workforce management solution, TrackIt. Phil Ramsey, CEO at Command Alkon expressed that the heavy work industry needed a reliable and innovative partner to help them achieve telematics-driven connected workflows and visibility. He added that the company had the tools, insights, and experience to fulfill those demands.

The crux

Over the years, concrete producers' success was based largely on assets. With technology, the industry has shifted from assets being the dominant factor to expanding and differentiating through service. Innovations and technological progressions in ready-mix concrete assist producers in reducing operating costs throughout the entire supply chain. Integration of IOT and AI has allowed instant updates, improved precision, and consistency in recipes. This has helped the plants to achieve quality consistency. Moreover, automated batching systems assist managers in efficiently controlling and predicting the manufacturing process. Technology has thus significantly improved ready-mix concrete production, boosting lucrative opportunities for industry.
