Flexible Applications, But Strong & Durable

Through a process called hydration, concrete will harden after water is added, resulting in a tough, bonded component with the properties of stone. New concrete constructions differ somewhat from those employed in the early Roman days in that they are stronger (because of reinforcements), but also in that the mix is able to be poured into shapes allowing greater versatility of use for new projects.

The chemical admixtures mentioned above include accelerants or retarders to aid or slow down the hydration process according to the requirements of the end product. Other qualities that can be enhanced - like workability - are obtained through the addition of plasticizers. Finally, the aesthetic properties of the concrete are increased through the addition of pigments to change the color. It is this last quality that is so often seen in the stamped concrete products for which Hub City Construction is so well known in New Jersey.
