A mobile concrete pump
is a truck mounted, road going vehicle, which is used to place wet
concrete into inaccessible areas. The vehicle is fitted with a
"boom" which is hydraulically operated to allow
positioning of the end hose at the required discharge location. |
|
|
The vehicle is also equipped with a quantity of steel
pipe which can be laid on the ground at the end of the boom to
increase the length, or alternatively piped straight from the
vehicle into, say, a building doorway. The pump unit can place 6
cubic metres of wet concrete in around 4 minutes |
|
The unit is supplied complete with
operator, who has been trained in both the vehicle use and safety
awareness. They hold certification to use that type of equipment,
and therefore are well placed to offer advice and help to obtain the
most from the use of their machines. |
 |
|
|
Due to the specialist nature of the machines, and
safety regulations they are not available without a driver. |

our gallery for more typical
applications of this type of vehicle. |
