    A key question has always existed in the infrastructural sector; which material to use in order to reduce the time and efforts spend for maintenance required for construction of a particular structure? Fortunately, a material already exists to provide the necessary results. No surprises here – it’s not a special compound, rather it’s a variation of the most common building material ever used, viz. self-healing concrete. This compound has been embraced on a fairly large scale now, thereby giving rise to a di

    February 19, 2015
    A truck-mounted concrete pump configured in four sections, Liebherr’s 37 Z4 XXT’s 37m distributor boom in Z-fold design is said to be extremely torsion resistant, and consequently exhibits low-vibration boom movements on the building site. The concrete pipeline on the 37 Z4 XXT is configured close to the boom on the left and right-hand sides, guaranteeing a balanced weight distribution. The pipe bends of the concrete pipeline feature a large radius of 27.5cm ensuring minimal losses in pressure over the le
