Current applications

  • Reinforced concrete for in-ground and above-ground works requiring good final strength
  • Concrete for foundations and works in aggressive environments
  • Concrete in contact with seawater
  • Concrete for massive pours requiring the controlled development of the heat of hydration
  • Concrete for road and rail works, including paving
  • Wet-process sprayed concrete for tunnel linings
  • Sewage works

(1) The values represent the level above (or below) the reasonably expected median values for the parameters indicated of BUZZI UNICEM cements belonging to the type and class named in the headers. These values are calculated on a yearly basis and take into account internal self-inspection data.
