Who are we and what do we do?

 AltaCrete: Natural Additive

AltaCrete: Natural Additive

AltaCrete, a natural white powder additive, enhances cement to create strong, cost-effective, load-bearing foundations for all traffic surfaces.
Cost-Effective Pavement Base

Cost-Effective Pavement Base

Soil-cement is a cost-effective, stiff pavement base ideal for long-lasting roads and parking areas, preventing depressions and water damage.
Efficient Pavement Recycling

Efficient Pavement Recycling

Recycling old pavements into soil-cement bases saves costs, reduces waste, and conserves high-grade materials by reusing 90% on-site materials.
Fast, Stable, and Streamlined

Fast, Stable, and Streamlined

With our soil stabilization expertise, we've constructed a 1 km (10m wide) road in just 24 hours, surpassing traditional methods.
Revolutionizing Road Reconstruction

Revolutionizing Road Reconstruction

Recycling deteriorated asphalt into a strong foundation via Full-Depth Reclamation (FDR) with cement offers economic, long-lasting road solutions.
Roller-Compacted Concrete (RCC)

Roller-Compacted Concrete (RCC)

Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is compacted by heavy rollers, offering similar strength to traditional concrete but with different proportions for tight packing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to our most common questions.
What is Altacrete additive?
Altacrete is a chemical additive used in concrete and asphalt mixtures to enhance the durability, strength, and longevity of road surfaces.
How does Altacrete improve road durability?
Altacrete modifies the microstructure of the concrete or asphalt, increasing resistance to cracking, water infiltration, and wear from traffic.
Can Altacrete be used in both asphalt and concrete roads?
Yes, Altacrete is designed to be compatible with both asphalt and concrete mixtures, making it versatile for various types of road construction.
What are the environmental benefits of using Altacrete?
By increasing the lifespan of roads and reducing maintenance needs, Altacrete helps lower the environmental impact associated with frequent road repairs and material use.
How does Altacrete affect the curing time of concrete?
Altacrete can optimize the curing process, often reducing the time required for the concrete to reach its full strength, thus speeding up construction timelines.
Is Altacrete cost-effective for road construction projects?
Although the initial cost may be higher, Altacrete's ability to extend the lifespan of roads and reduce maintenance costs can result in significant long-term savings.
Does Altacrete enhance the load-bearing capacity of roads?
Yes, Altacrete improves the overall structural integrity and load-bearing capacity of the road surface, making it suitable for heavy traffic and industrial use.
Are there any special handling or mixing requirements for Altacrete?
Altacrete should be added to the mix according to the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure proper dispersion and effectiveness. Standard mixing equipment can typically be used.
How does Altacrete perform in extreme weather conditions?
Altacrete enhances the resilience of roads to extreme temperatures, freeze-thaw cycles, and other harsh environmental conditions, maintaining performance throughout the year.
What kind of maintenance is required for roads built with Altacrete?
Roads constructed with Altacrete typically require less frequent maintenance, as the additive enhances durability and resistance to common issues like cracking and potholing. Regular inspections and minor repairs as needed will suffice.
How does Altacrete improve road surface smoothness?
Altacrete can enhance the workability of concrete and asphalt mixtures, resulting in a smoother and more uniform road surface.
What are the long-term benefits of using Altacrete in road construction?
Long-term benefits include extended road lifespan, reduced frequency and cost of repairs, improved safety, and better performance under heavy traffic conditions.
Is Altacrete compatible with recycled materials in road construction?
Yes, Altacrete is designed to work well with recycled materials, promoting sustainable construction practices while maintaining high performance.
Does Altacrete help in reducing the urban heat island effect?
Altacrete can be formulated to include reflective properties that reduce heat absorption, thus helping to mitigate the urban heat island effect.
Can Altacrete be used in road repair and rehabilitation projects?
Absolutely, Altacrete can be incorporated into repair and rehabilitation projects to enhance the performance and durability of existing roadways.
What impact does Altacrete have on road noise reduction?
By creating a denser and more uniform surface, Altacrete can help reduce road noise, contributing to a quieter driving experience.
Is special training required for construction crews to use Altacrete?
While no extensive training is required, it is beneficial for construction crews to be familiarized with the specific mixing and application instructions provided by Altacrete manufacturers.
What are the safety considerations when handling Altacrete?
Standard safety precautions for handling chemical additives should be followed, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper ventilation.
Can Altacrete improve road drainage and prevent water pooling?
Yes, Altacrete enhances the hydrophobic properties of concrete and asphalt, improving drainage and reducing the risk of water pooling and related damage.
Are there specific types of road projects where Altacrete is particularly advantageous?
Altacrete is particularly beneficial in high-traffic areas, highways, industrial roads, and regions with extreme weather conditions, where enhanced durability and reduced maintenance are critical.
