Maintenance of concrete mixer truck

To ensure the top performance of your ready-mix truck, maintenance is key. Rather than allowing the concrete to harden, washing away concrete buildup daily is the easiest way to extend the life of the truck. Although routine washing may seem like a hassle, it is the most efficient method to keep the trucks clean.

When the concrete is allowed to set inside the mixing drum, the only solution is chipping off the hardened concrete with a jackhammer. Or if chipping does not properly remove the concrete, some have resorted to small explosives. Chipping also poses many safety hazards: rolling drum, sharp mixing blades, falling concrete, and many more. You can read more about these safety hazards. The main question is, why go through such difficult measures when all of that can be avoided.

A routine wash keeps the truck and all its parts in pristine condition. The only downfall of washing cement trucks and mixing drums daily is the large amount of water involved. Using a high-pressure power washer to clean the ready mix truck can use up to 5-12 gallons of water per minute, depending on the intensity of the power wash. On the other hand, cleaning the mixing drum takes at least 200 gallons of water.

Fully automatic concrete mixing plant well reduces labor amount in construction project, and more humanized designs are added in terms of using this kind of concrete mixing plant. Then, how do we rightly operate fully automatic concrete mixing plant? Which requirements should be met for operators? The so-called full automation of concrete mixing plant means that all devices such as transporting system, batching system, mixing system and discharging system can be controlled by a computer. First of all, aggregate concrete batching is transported by belt conveyor. The pump and fly ash are transmitted by screw conveyor to be weighed. Then, in the operation process of fully automatic concrete mixing plant, water and additives are weighed by electric scale. All needed concrete materials are weighed by electric scale and made a ratio according to design process. The main concrete mixer is adjusted according the materials. When production combination starts and the materials are mixed evenly,

Currently, the strength of common used concrete is 20一40 n/mm. It is not difficult to produce the concrete of 80一100 N/mm if necessary. In order to lighten self-weight, concrete with light weight but high strength gets big development. Due to the continuous improvement of material strength, the application scope reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete is expanding. In recent 30 years, reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete have achieved remarkable development in long-span structure and high-rise building structure. For instance, Germany builds a roof beam of hangar with scope of 90m by adopting prestressed lightweight concrete; the scope of bridge in Japan reaches 239 m. During this period, design theory also has new development. Since the 1970s, structural reliability theory has gradually stepped into the stage of engineering practical on the basis of mathematical statistics, which makes the limit design method more improved and scientific. In the meantime, structure
