The job
Following an earlier job together at Wick St Lawrence, a groundworks contractor asked Palmix to supply concrete for a project on the airport site.
- 02
What was needed
Working airside meant going through airport security procedures before the truck could reach the pour. Clearance took about two hours.

On the day
The truck mixed 1.6 m³ of C35 at S2 slump, then switched to 2 m³ of ST2 at S3. Both mixes came from the same truck.
