What is concrete vibration and why is it important?
Concrete is a mixture of water, aggregates (sand and gravel), and cement. The vibrator transmits high-frequency oscillations to this mixture, causing it to behave like a liquid. This mixture surrounds the reinforcement bars and penetrates hard-to-reach areas. During this process, air trapped in the concrete is released to the surface in the form of bubbles.
The process of concrete vibration is essential to ensure that its structure achieves the necessary compaction for obtaining strength, durability, and flawless finishes.
