Gen1 Concrete

Gen1 Concrete designation mixes are applied for a series of Concretes that are used for housing, and similar non structural applications. The requirements specify a minimum quantity of cement (minimum cement content, or MCC) to be included, but no water cement ratio (w/c) as such, they have relatively low levels of durability.

Applications: GEN 1 is an extremely versatile mix used throughout the construction industry for general and housing applications. It is usually used for cavity filling, kerbing, unreinforced domestic foundations in DC-1 soils and haunching.

• un-reinforced strip footings
• trench-fill foundations
• some agricultural applications
• foundations for walls, sheds and conservatories
• drainage works
• blinding house floors
• pad foundations
• non-structural mass concrete in non-aggressive (DC-1) ground conditions
• cavity fill
• mass fill
• kerbing
• haunching
• Concrete strength: 10N/mm2 at 28 days
• GEN1 should not be used externally unless completely covered or encased
