General Advantages:
- Onsite Batching with mobile wet batchers without the need to handle coarse aggregates, reducing transport costs and EPA dust.
- Lower Transport Costs due to weight difference. 30 trucks of stone aggregate are replaced with 1 truck of Toberite® Atoms.
- Lower Workplace Injuries due to lighter easier handling.
- Increased Productivity due to reduced need for mesh.
Physical Advantages:
- Reduced Alkali Silica Reaction – potentially cures concrete cancer.
- Increased Durability due to acid and chemical resistant.
- Redistributes Load – increased ductility/ toughness.
- Reduced Weight – 400kg/m3 lighter.
- Achieves Workable MPA quicker.
- Increased compressive strength.
- Increased Consistency of Mix.
- Increased Impact Protection.
- Increased Flexural Strength.
- Increased Tensile Strength.
- Reduced Surface Cracking.
- No Segregation.
