What could be the future of ready-mix concrete? Some prospective views - Vol.95(3), March - Thane ACC LTD 2021 - 32-37p.

Urbanization will dramatically increase in the coming decades; hence building and infrastructure construction will shoot up and will need to reinvent itself to address its main future challenges like productivity, building comfort or sustainability. Ready mix concrete will no doubt be the preferred material of the future supported by ground-breaking innovative solutions helping to reduce its CO2, natural mineral resources and water footprints to nearly zero, and to boost jobsite productivity and quality, possibly with 100% recycled raw materials concretes, fresh concretes on-demand, 3D-shotcreting, fully digital monitoring from A to Z or delivery drones, to name just a few.
