Abstract

With growing population, industrialization, and urbanization, there is corresponding growth in the demand for infrastructure. Almost all concretes rely critically on being fully compacted. Insufficient compaction dramatically lowers ultimate performance of concrete in spite of good mix design. Concrete is the most widely consumed material in the world, after water. Placing the fresh concrete requires skilled operatives using slow, heavy, noisy, expensive, energy-consuming and often dangerous mechanical vibration to ensure adequate compaction to obtain the full strength and durability of the hardened concrete.
