- Cost effective - lower installation and maintenance costs than asphalt
- Rapid Construction - Fastest speed of construction due to paving installed in thicker layers
- Durable - Long service life with minimal maintenance
- Hard Wearing & Sustainable - high load carrying ability and supports sustainable development
- Fast Setting - early strength gain makes it open to light traffic within hours and can be open to heavy traffic within 1 to 2 days
- Economical solution that doesn't require as much ongoing maintenance as asphalt.
Roller Compacted Concrete
RCC Paving & Road Solutions
What Is Roller Compacted Concrete?
CEM-Pave RCC is simple, fast and economical to install as it doesn’t contain any steel reinforcement, neither does it require formwork or finishing. Significant savings of up to 30% can be achieved over a traditional pavement construction.
The high strength of an RCC pavement eliminates common problems that have traditionally been associated with other pavement types. CEM-Pave RCC is more resistant to rutting, is capable of withstanding heavy concentrated loads and is immune to low or high temperature extremes.
The basic ingredients of CEM-Pave RCC are the same as for conventional concrete: sand, aggregates, cement, and water, however the quantities are different. Mix designs may vary based on the job application. RCC is a zero slump concrete mix that is placed using standard asphalt pavers and compacted with 10 ton rollers similar to the way hot mix asphalt is placed.
