A mobile volumetric concrete mixing system includes a suction system that vacuums up trench spoils while a trench is being cut. These trench spoils are then screened on-site for particle size to be reused and mixed with water, cement, and/or other admixtures at an auger mixer to form a backfill mixture. This backfill mixture may then be loaded into a hopper that continuously agitates the mixture so that the mixture does not harden before pouring. The agitating hopper is coupled to a discharge chute of the auger mixer and includes one or more augers disposed at various orientations that the backfill mixture is channeled through. From the agitating hopper, the backfill mixture is channeled to an applicator that moves along the trench and that enables the mixture to be quickly poured into the trench with little clean-up required.

Volumetric concrete mixing system, equipment, and method

Fast-setting flowable fill compositions for filling ground trenches are described. The compositions set quickly but retain a low strength psi at 28 days. The compositions also reduce bleed water on the surface of the fast-setting flowable fill and therefor enable quicker application of surface repair material, e.g., pavement patches, to the trench. The compositions consist of aggregate, Portland cement, accelerant, water and sometimes air. The compositions may have a compressive strength of between 5 psi and 60 psi after 2 hours, a compressive strength of between 10 psi and 100 psi after 4 hours, a compressive strength of between 75 psi and 500 psi after 28 days, a penetration resistance of between 1.5 tsf and 75 tsf after 2 hours, a penetration resistance of between 4.5 tsf and 200 tsf after 4 hours, and a shrinkage of less than 2% as measured by ASTM C490. Also disclosed are methods of filling a trench with fast-setting flowable fill.

Fast-setting flowable fill compositions, and methods of utilizing and producing the same

High-strength flowable fill compositions are disclosed. The compositions include cement, aggregate (e.g., sand), water, coloring agent, polymer, and fibers. In an embodiment, the compositions include an accelerant, e.g., calcium chloride or sodium bicarbonate and/or an air entraining agent. In an embodiment, the compositions include a water-proofing agent to eliminate efflorescence. The compositions have a compressive strength of between 300 psi and 3000 psi after 1 day, a compressive strength of between 900 psi and 4000 psi after 7 days, and a compressive strength of between 1200 psi and 5000 psi after 28 days.

High-strength flowable fill compositions

A composition for backfilling a void. The composition may include between 40% and 65% air by volume, between 20% and 50% water by weight, between 5% and 50% calcium sulfoaluminate cement by weight, and between 20% and 55% filler by weight. The composition may have a compressive strength between 10 psi and 170 psi at four hours, a compressive strength between 20 psi and 310 psi at one day, and a compressive strength between 30 psi and 520 psi at twenty-eight days.

Rapid-setting cellular backfill with calcium sulfoaluminate cement and other powder-sized filler materials

A low density annular grout composition for filling voids. The composition may consist of cementitious fly ash, water, set retarder and cellular foam. The composition may have a compressive strength of between 100 and 600 psi at seven days and less than 1500 psi at 28 days. The composition may have a density between 20 and 75 pcf. Also disclosed is a method of filling a void with a low density annular grout composition. The method can include determining the time necessary to fill the void, adding water and set retarder to a cementitious fly ash to make a wet mixture, adding air to the wet mixture, and adding the composition to the void.

This disclosure describes volumetric mobile powder mixer (VMPM) systems and methods for VMPM operation and use. The VMPM is providing with a number of storage compartments (or bins) for liquid or solid ingredients including at least one powder storage bin, a powder transport system, a dust handling system, a solid/liquid mixing system, a cellular foam generator, a product delivery system, and a controller capable of monitoring the delivery and mixing of each of the ingredients, as well as the discharge of the final product. The controller determines if the proper mixture is being discharged by the VMPM and, if not, alerts the VMPM operator. In an automated embodiment, the VMPM controller is also configured to independently control the delivery and mixing of each of the ingredients, as well as the delivery of the final product.
