RIGID PAVEMENTS - CONSTRUCTION. USE OF A CONTINUOUS PLANT FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ROAD CONCRETE

CHAUSSEES EN BETON - REALISATION - UTILISATION D'UNE CENTRALE CONTINUE POUR LA FABRICATION DU BETON ROUTIER

THE USE OF A CONTINUOUS MIXING PLANT FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF CONCRETE IS NEW IN FRANCE. THE FOLLOW-UP STUDY OF CONCRETE DURING PRODUCTION WAS EFFECTED BY MEANS OF A DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM WITH AUTOMATIC PROCESSING OF DATA. A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT IS GIVEN. BEFORE THE START OF PRODUCTION ACCURATE ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE TO THE VARIOUS SYSTEMS OF PROPORTIONING AGGREGATES, CEMENT, WATER AND ADMIXTURES, AND A FOLLOW-UP STUDY OF THE PRODUCTION OF GRAVEL-CEMENT FOR THE SUBBASE IS CARRIED OUT TO CHECK THE ACCURACY OF THE EQUIPMENT. THE RESULTS OBTAINED DURING THE MANUFACTURE OF CONCRETE SHOW THAT THE PLANT ENABLES THE REQUIREMENTS OF CONCRETE PRODUCTION TO BE FULFILLED AND THAT THE USE OF THIS TYPE OF EQUIPMENT DOES NOT GIVE RISE TO ANY SPECIAL PROBLEM.
