A Master Mix Concrete Case Study

Summary

Master Mix Concrete supplied 80m³ of foundation grade volumetric concrete to a commercial construction site in Hatfield.

The concrete was needed for a series of footing pours forming part of the building foundations. The client needed a steady flow of concrete across the works, with enough volume on site to keep each section moving.

Multiple volumetric mixer trucks were used for the job. This gave the site team a continuous supply of fresh concrete through the footing pours and helped keep the foundation work progressing.

Commercial foundation work in Hatfield

The client was carrying out commercial construction work in Hatfield, with substantial footing pours required for the building foundations. Foundations are a key part of any commercial build. Once the groundworks team is ready to pour, delays between loads can hold up labour, plant and the next part of the programme.

This job involved around 80m³ of foundation grade concrete across a series of footing sections. It was a sizeable pour, so one mixer truck would not have been the right fit for the pace of work needed on site.

Good site access helped the operation. The mixer trucks could move around the site efficiently and work alongside the groundworks team without access issues slowing down the delivery.

Warm weather supported the day’s work too. With the site ready and vehicle movements running smoothly, the focus was on keeping concrete arriving for each planned footing section.

What the footing pours needed

The client required approximately 80m³ of foundation grade concrete for commercial footing pours. The main requirement was continuity. Concrete had to be supplied across the footing works at a pace that suited the site team, so the pours could carry on without unnecessary breaks between truck loads.

For a job of this size, coordination matters. The site team needed the right volume available for each part of the foundations, without having trucks sitting in the way or a gap opening up during the pour.

Master Mix Concrete arranged multiple volumetric mixers for the Hatfield site. Each truck mixed concrete on site as required, giving the team a flexible supply through the day.

That approach suited the work. Rather than treating the full 80m³ as one single delivery, the concrete could be supplied across the planned footing sections as the groundworkers moved through them.

Concrete supplier in Hatfield for larger footing pours

As a concrete supplier in Hatfield, Master Mix Concrete regularly works with groundworkers and commercial contractors who need concrete supplied around the pace of the job. This site had favourable access, but the volume still needed careful handling. Eighty cubic metres is a substantial amount of concrete for footing work, particularly where several sections need to be poured as part of the same foundation operation.

The key point was keeping fresh concrete coming without unnecessary interruptions. Multiple volumetric mixers were coordinated with the site team to maintain the supply through the pours. The drivers and site team worked together on the delivery sequence. This kept the trucks moving into the right areas of the site and kept concrete available as each footing section was ready.

Volumetric concrete was a practical choice for this job. Concrete is mixed on site, so the team can receive the volume needed as the work progresses. It gives better control over the amount supplied and keeps the operation flexible across different parts of the pour.

For commercial foundations, that flexibility can make a real difference. The groundworks crew can focus on placing the concrete in the footings, with multiple mixers supporting the volume required.

Keeping the concrete flowing

Master Mix Concrete deployed multiple volumetric mixer trucks to meet the demand for the footing pours. The trucks provided a continuous supply of fresh foundation grade concrete across the 80m³ job. This helped the site team move from one footing section to the next without unnecessary hold-ups between loads.

The job did not need complicated access planning. Good access gave the mixers room to work efficiently alongside the construction team. Warm conditions meant the site was able to keep moving through the planned pours. The coordinated truck arrangement supported the team through the foundation work and kept the supply aligned with the pace of placement.

Using more than one mixer was the right approach for the amount of concrete required. It helped avoid the stop-start supply that can happen when a large foundation pour relies on a single vehicle.

The operators kept the delivery flow organised with the site team. That gave the groundworkers a dependable source of concrete for the planned footing sections.

The Results

Master Mix Concrete supplied 80m³ of foundation grade volumetric concrete for the commercial footing pours in Hatfield. Multiple volumetric mixers kept fresh concrete flowing throughout the works. The footing pours were completed successfully, with the site team able to progress across the planned foundation sections.

Good access, warm weather and close coordination between the drivers and groundworks team helped the operation run smoothly. The use of volumetric mixers gave the client control over the concrete supplied during the pour, with fresh concrete mixed on site as required.

For commercial groundwork jobs where a large volume is needed, a coordinated fleet can keep the pour moving and help the site team stay focused on the job in front of them.
