Aggregate Optimization: The Biggest Untapped Lever in Concrete Mix Design
Walk into any ready-mix plant, and you’ll find the same paradox. Producers fine-tune cement to the kilogram, dose admixtures to the milliliter, and debate supplementary…

Ready-mix operations generate more data than ever before. Batching records, dispatch tickets, aggregate test reports, cylinder break results, in-transit slump readings… The information that drives concrete quality…

The construction industry is undergoing a tech-driven transformation as artificial intelligence (AI) becomes an integral part of how we build. Long-standing challenges, from skilled labour…

As construction becomes more digital, with cloud platforms, BIM, and IoT-connected equipment, it also becomes a prime target for cyberattacks. Ransomware, data breaches, and phishing…

The concrete industry is under growing pressure. Producers must maintain high-quality standards while also reducing costs, material waste, and carbon emissions. Traditional mix management methods…

The concrete industry has long been known for its slow adoption of new technologies. While this caution may serve to maintain traditional methods, it leaves…

Material costs account for approximately 56% of total production costs in the concrete ready-mix industry, as shown in the NRMCA Performance Benchmarking Survey. Key material…

Let’s dive into the exciting world of concrete innovations, but with a fun twist! Imagine you’re at a futuristic construction site where concrete isn’t just…

The concept of artificial intelligence in concrete is frequently discussed, yet its practical application and effectiveness remain elusive. Despite the buzz, there seems to be…

In late 2020, Giatec announced that our artificial intelligence (AI) program RoxiTM has been trained with the funding provided by Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC), which will help…
