Batch Plant

In Plain English

The facility where cement, sand, gravel, and water are combined in precise amounts to make ready-mix concrete.

Definition

A facility that combines cement, aggregate, water, and admixtures in measured quantities to produce ready-mix concrete. Batch plants can be stationary (permanent facilities) or mobile (portable, set up on the jobsite for large projects). The batch plant operator is responsible for producing concrete that meets the specified mix design proportions.

Example

The project's remote location required a mobile batch plant on site to avoid excessive concrete haul times.
