It comprises of cement and other materials that form an aggregate which can then be activated upon mixing with water as needed. Ready-mix concrete is frequently utilised when there is not enough room for mixing plants and aggregate stockpiles. They are also used for modest building projects where smaller quantities of concrete can suffice, and extensive stockpiles are unnecessary. As more infrastructure projects are undertaken where there may not be enough space for mixing concrete, the need for ready-mixed concrete is expected to rise further.
