How can I choose the right type of concrete for my project?
| Category | Typical Applications |
|---|---|
| MPa |
● 15MPa – Pavement kerbs and floor binding. ● 20MPa – Domestic pathways, foundations and house slabs. ● 25MPa (a popular choice) – Driveways, house slabs and foundations. ● 32MPa – Commercial pathways and roadways for heavy road traffic, suspended slabs, poor soil conditions. ●40MPa – Commercial construction sites such as shopping centers, carparks and high story buildings. |
| Aggregate Size |
● Sand (<5mm) – Backfilling that needs to harden when set (e.g. around swimming pools or over pipes). ● 7mm Aggregate – Topping up an existing concrete slab, filing cavity walls, and blockwork. ● 14mm Aggregate – Driveways, footpaths, foundations, pits, stumps. This is popular as it can be pumped easily. ● 20mm Aggregate (most common) – A cheaper alternative to 14m Aggregate, but cannot be pumped as easily. |
| Slump |
● 80mm – Standard residential use ● 90mm – Foundations with moderate reinforcement ● 100mm – Pumped concrete, suspended slabs ● 120mm – Complex pours, tight access (may incur extra charge) |
| Stabilised Sand |
● Under-filling and infilling of pipes: Provides a stable and compacted fill. ● Bedding for driveways and patios: Ensures a solid base that can withstand heavy loads. ● Road construction: Ideal for levelling and creating a firm foundation. ● Base for slabs and floor: Offers a durable and reliable base for various flooring applications. |

Helpful Tips for Ordering
Be Prepared Before You Order
To help ensure smooth delivery and the right mix for your project, it’s important to provide clear information when placing your order. Here are a few key things to consider:
- What is the application? (e.g. slab, trench, footpath)
- Do you require a specific slump or MPa rating?
- What is your estimated quantity in m³?
- Are admixtures required for curing, setting, or strength?
Choosing the Right Truck Size
Concrete is delivered using purpose-built agitator trucks, which keep the mix workable and consistent during transport. Selecting the right truck size ensures timely, safe and efficient delivery.
