There are a number of different circumstances in the construction industry where traditional ways to move concrete around are simply not feasible. In situations such as these, utilising a quality pumping system to get the liquid concrete from A to B is a necessity, and we’re here to provide the means to find a supplier that’s nearby, at the right price.
At iSeekplant we offer three methods of connecting with suppliers who offer Melbourne concrete pumping hire:
Because there are so many different circumstances that call for this type of equipment, there are also variants of the equipment itself. Through iSeekplant you’re able to search through three different categories:
Boom
Generally used on bigger projects, this type includes the arm of a crane which holds onto a rubber tube connected to the engine which has the ability to pump high volumes of liquid concrete at substantial distances vertically.
Line
More widely used on small sites, this offers a great deal of mobility as it’s truck-mounted. The concrete pumps through tubing as with the Boom, however the Line doesn’t have the height or volume capabilities of the Boom.
Shotcreting
Using compressed air, shotcreting is a versatile method to form a building’s structural and non-structural components.
