Reinforced Concrete
Reinforced Concrete or RC Concrete is used for a series of designated Concretes that are used in Concrete that will be reinforced, pre-stressed or contain embedded steel.
Reinforced Concretes
Applying the right Concrete mix for your project is essential for achieving the best results. Subsequently, the Mick George Group supply a comprehensive range of Concrete Applications of varying strengths and grades to ensure the ideal solution for any project, large or small.
Reinforced Concrete or RC Concrete is used for a series of designated Concretes that are used in Concrete that will be reinforced, pre-stressed or containing embedded steel. The specifications for the RC-series of designated Concretes include requirements for maximum water to cement ratio (W/C) and minimum cementitious content (MCC), which makes specification easier and complete. The range of uses for this group of mix types ranges in size from a lightly reinforced house or garage floors to industrial and agricultural reinforced Concrete that is exposed to highly demanding exposure conditions.
