Fly ash (aka flue ash) is often used as a replacement for Portland cement in the production of concrete. As the Federal Highway Administration describes it, fly ash “is the finely divided residue…
Today we thought we’d touch on the subject of moisture correction in concrete mix design. It’s a subject that has centuries of research and development behind it. This R&D leads us past some of the oldest structures on earth all the way up to modern facilities producing precast concrete forms, such as Rogue Valley Precast….
At Rogue Valley Precast, we produce durable precast concrete forms all year round. When they leave our production facility, they’re bound for projects that dot the region of our rapidly growing communities. The precast concrete is used in many different ways: stormwater management and sewer systems, box culverts, catch basins, dry wells, electrical vault structures,…
Precast concrete structures are all around us — in the buildings we occupy and beneath our feet as part of our region’s buried infrastructure. What makes it such a popular building material? What are the advantages of precast concrete structures? A high percentage of buried infrastructure projects rely on concrete forms. Concrete is safe for…
