HESC can develop by using ordinary concrete constituents, chemical admixtures, and specific concrete engineering. Some methods used to achieve HESC are as follows: using high early...
to obtain the best results. Where high workability concrete is required from normal workability concrete delivered to site, Conplast SP430 may also be added to concrete in the drum of a readymix truck. Full blending of the admixture and the concrete should be ensured by mixing in the truck drum at high speed for a period of at least two minutes.
