Frequently Asked Questions Volumetric Mixers


What is a volumetric mixer?

A volumetric mixer is a batch plant on wheels, all the materials needed to produce concrete are carried in separate compartments and mixed together on site as needed. Thus the term mobile concrete was born. With the volumetric mixers you only pay for the amount that you use after the minimum requirements are met.

How much concrete will I need?

It is very simple to figure how much concrete you will need for any given area. Let us say that you have a form that is 9 foot by 9 foot 4 inches deep. You would multiply 9 times 9 equal 81 times 4 equals 324, now divide by 324 your answer is 1. Which means you need 1 cubic yard. This example will work with any measurements. But remember that for your answer to be correct your measurements has to be correct. If you are as much as 1/8 inch off on the depth on a 32 yard pour it would take an extra yard or 33 yards.
