Concrete Consolidation

Freshly mixed concrete does not compact on its own because the poor fluidity is not able to overcome the internal friction; only vibration can overcome such forces.

Vibration Favours

• The surfacing of the air trapped in the concrete
• The displacement of aggregates, aligning them to one another, with consequent reduction of cavities, conferring them high density and perfect homogeneity
• The adhesion of the concrete to the bars of the reinforcement armatures or to any internal structural inserts, as well as to the basic anchorages.

Benefits

• High mechanical resistance.
• Low porosity and thus low permeability to water and to aggressive substances contained therein.
• Absence of cracks within the concrete, in the proximity of the reinforcement armatures’ bars.
• Complete filling of the formwork.
• Increase in the life cycle of the concrete.
• High aesthetic result.
