High Strength Concrete (HSC) is a type of concrete that has been designed to have a higher strength than conventional concrete. It is typically used in applications where high strength and durability are required, such as in bridges, dams, and other large structures. HSC is made by using a combination of cement, water, and aggregates, with the addition of admixtures such as silica fume, fly ash, and superplasticizers. The use of HSC has increased in recent years due to its superior strength and durability compared to conventional concrete.
HSC is a part of the larger cement and concrete market, which is a multi-billion dollar industry. Cement and concrete are used in a wide variety of applications, from construction to infrastructure to landscaping. The use of HSC is growing due to its superior performance and cost-effectiveness compared to conventional concrete.
Some companies in the HSC market include CEMEX, LafargeHolcim, HeidelbergCement, and CRH plc. Show Less Read more
