Event Summary

Efficient concrete delivery doesn’t stop at mix design — it extends through pumping, placement, curing and ultimately, the timing of formwork stripping. In today’s fast-paced construction environment, optimising each stage of the delivery process is critical to improving productivity, maintaining quality and reducing program delays.

This technical seminar will explore best practice approaches to concrete pumping and placement, highlighting the key factors that influence performance, workability retention and in-situ strength development. A particular focus will be placed on emerging technologies for real-time strength monitoring and how these tools can safely accelerate stripping times without compromising structural integrity or compliance.
