How is KSC Komponent® incorporated into the concrete mix?
Generally, this is done at the batch plant. If you are not adding the KSC Komponent via silo, the easiest way is to break the KSC Komponent bags over the sand and stone on the aggregate belt prior to batching the concrete. After combining the water, cement, aggregate, and KSC Komponent, the drum should be rotated about 70 times at mixing speed. This helps ensure complete incorporation of the KSC Komponent into the mix. Q: I hear that we have two yards less concrete in the truck. A: With good normal procedures the same size loads can be hauled. However, most Departments of Transportation require two yards less on their projects.
