Description Concrete

It is the concrete required in any type of reinforced or mass concrete structures, and used in both building and civil works. Its main applications are pillars, beams, walls, floors, ...
Cementval strictly complies with all the specifications indicated in the current Structural Concrete Instruction EHE - 08.

It is a concrete specifically designed to be used in foundations that need a high settlement. It is the typical concrete for diaphragm walls and piles, which require a high fluidity and ease of implementation given the difficulty of execution of these elements.

Concrete that is going to be submitted to a superficial polishing or final troweling obtaining an excellent finish. For its correct implementation, superfluidizing additives are used, which do not delay the setting process and minimize the waiting time for troweling depending on environmental conditions. The granulometry is designed to achieve the best texture and the lowest shrinkage.

It is a concrete, generally with a floor, to which polypropylene or metallic fibers are added. The main function of the fiber is to significantly reduce the appearance and propagation of retraction cracks. With the use of the metallic fiber, the flexotraction performance is also improved. In some cases the mesh can be replaced by the use of the fibers.

This concrete is specially elaborated to make a superficial engraving by means of a mold, being this one perfectly printed since the granulometry of this concrete is studied so that the final texture is the best possible one. The printed concrete of Cementval is designed in such a way that the times of pouring, placement, beginning of setting and engraving of the concrete are optimal.

Concrete used in pavements that are going to support high mechanical loads to flexotraccion, as they are the circulation of vehicles or heavy machines. It is common in airports, ports and roads.

It is a concrete which requires very high performance in resistance and durability, because it is subjected to very high mechanical loads or very aggressive environments. Its high cement content also makes it have a very low permeability.

It is the future alternative to conventional concrete, with a great ease of placement that allows the concrete to reach places of difficult access, since it only fills the structural element with a very good finish, without the need for any vibration or compaction.
It is especially recommended for structures where there is a high density of reinforcement. This concrete also greatly improves the quality of the finish of the exposed surfaces, increasing their uniformity.

The porous concrete is the solution for concrete pavements in the evacuation of rainwater, streets, parking lots, sports fields, etc. The design of the mixture allows this concrete to have a high drainage capacity, minimizing the risk of sudden flooding or water accumulation. Cementval's porous concrete has an improved fluidity compared to other porous concretes, making it easier to lay.

It is a concrete manufactured with low density aggregates and/or with airing additives, so that the final product has a lower density than conventional concrete. In this way, light and insulating structures are achieved, both acoustically and thermally.
This concrete is usually used in slabs, floors or forged.

Concrete in which the aggregates used are of high density It is ideal for protective structures against radiation (e.g. nuclear reactors, X-ray rooms, ...), due to its capacity to absorb high energy particles.
