What is surface excavation?
Estimate pouring speed and match it production speed to avoid waiting and approaching it's setting time, keep home work-ready with trials for options (e.g., redosing with SP) for reusing leftover concrete, inform Batching plant when 10% of the pour is balanced and reduce trucks carrying concrete theRead more
Estimate pouring speed and match it production speed to avoid waiting and approaching it’s setting time, keep home work-ready with trials for options (e.g., redosing with SP) for reusing leftover concrete, inform Batching plant when 10% of the pour is balanced and reduce trucks carrying concrete thereafter, explore the scope for casting precast blocks from leftover / used in testing, etc. concrete,
Deploy a supervisor to be in touch with Batching Plant from site to hold or slow down concrete supply if there is any issue at the site, keep critical spare parts of Concrete Pumps, etc. available at site 24 x 7, deploy an experienced Pump operator and a Concrete specialist at the site
1. Small precast forms(curbs, drain slabs, etc., which are needed in the project) to be kept ready at the site near the RMC pouring area fresh concrete waste needs to be handled into these forms. Optimum labor to be maintained to handle these operations.
2. Retrieve the aggregates by washing off the waste concrete.
3. Order the right quantity of concrete required to finish the pour, hence reducing the wastage.
4. Have at least one spare pump at the site when pouring a large quantity of concrete.
5. Have the right waste concrete segregation pits at RMC plants to wash the wet concrete and to retrieve the coarse aggregates.

Surface excavation involves the removal of the exposed layer of the earth surface, including any vegetation or decaying matter which could make the soil compressible and therefore unsuitable for bearing structural loads. Hence the depth will be vary from site to site, usually range of 150-300 mm.
