Rolled Concrete

Rolled Concrete

Rolled concrete is concrete which is placed with standard (asphalt) road pavers and is then levelled and compacted with smooth coated vibrating rollers. Rolled concrete is used mainly in the construction of hard standing, large surfaces (car parks) and road surfaces. The concrete composition is similar to standard concrete. Semidry consistence: Crushed material is preferable for good green strength.

The coarse material, sand, binder (standard cement) and water content must be coordinated. In particular, the water content must be kept constant and precise to allow the voids to be filled as fully as possible by rolling.
