Carter is in the process of batching its own concrete on the 28,000 cubic yard, 9 level luxury apartment building.
The Simem/SBM Mobile Plant is positioned between two tower cranes enabling deposition of concrete in under two minutes from the time water is added to the powder.
This highly sustainable practice reduces requirements for cement and optimizes the usage of recycled fly ash. Transit mixers and pumps are not required once the plant is up. Washwater is reduced by over 95%, that which remains is kept on-site.
