Application

  • Early Strength Concrete are often used,
  • ✦ construction of high load bearing columns and for many products in precast plants.
  • ✦ Suitable for application in high rise buildings, especially in earthquake areas.

Properties

  • The higher strength in concrete could be achieved by using one of the following methods or a combination some or many of the following:
  • ✦ Higher cement content
  • ✦ Reducing water cement ratio
  • ✦ Better workability and hence better compaction
