The Basics of Concrete Pumping Technology

From its inception, concrete pumping revolutionized the concrete industry. Previous methods of concrete placement could be inefficient and hazardous, especially on large-scale projects. In its most rudimentary form, these historical methods of placement involved shuttling wheelbarrows full of concrete from the mixer across vast and obstacle filled job sites, then placing the concrete in the formwork by hand, which required much time and manpower. Concrete pumping technology has mechanized and streamlined this process, allowing for greater volumes of concrete to be placed with fewer workers needed. And when employed by experienced commercial concrete contractors in San Francisco, the benefits of the technology are felt by the customer in the quality of the finished product and the impact on their bottom line.
