Kinds

M200 concrete happens:

  • fine-grained - used for foundations or paving
  • heavy - due to low shrinkage, they are used to protect iron reinforcement from corrosion and other harmful effects.

Benefits

  • Thanks to not high density high reliability is provided.
  • It has a low thermal conductivity, and therefore does not need to spend much on insulating material.
  • When drying immediately gains strength.
  • Very comfortable.
  • Lack of cracks when using.

Due to these qualities, the mixture meets the requirements of the modern building materials market. It is possible to pour such concrete in the temperature range of 5-350 degrees, and it will not lose its positive qualities, and also has an excellent adhesion effect.

M200 (B15) can be used in areas with strong temperature differences and where there is a need for construction in a short time.

Application

M200 concrete is used in the following cases:

  • When building a house foundation, concrete screeds or paths. It turns out durable with a long service life coating without cracks.
  • It is used to create retaining walls, also stairs.
  • Protects reinforced concrete structures from corrosion and negative media.
  • It is used to make stones for borders and make concrete pillows.
  • Used in various reinforcement works. From it can build buildings with a small number of floors,load-bearing walls or make floors.
  • Thanks to the stability of compression, it is possible to make paving slabs and building blocks from it.
  • In the construction of driveways for any road transport and home extensions (baths, garages or arbors).

This brand of concrete, depending on the aggregate used:

  • for residential buildings or industrial premises;
  • for finishing work;
  • for works in the field of road construction.

It is the composition of the concrete mix that ensures reliability and hardness. Concrete M200 is protected from deformation, quickly hardens, resistant to chips and cracks.
