Concrete is one of the most versatile building products in the world. In fact, over 5 billion cubic yards of the stuff is used in construction every year worldwide. One of the latest advances to make this product even more versatile has come as the result of advances made in chemical admixture technology. One such advance is an admixture by the name of Glenium produced by Master Builders Technologies. Glenium has brought smiles to many a concrete contractor's face and the reason for this reaction is the fact that this product enhances the flowability of concrete to the point of being self-leveling. Concrete containing such specialized admixtures are commonly known in the industry as Self-Compacting Concrete (or SCC) because virtually no energy is required to place and consolidate the mix in slab areas as well as in tight formwork. In short, a high quality concrete structure can be achieved with significant labor savings.
