Company
Cooper Engineering is a California based concrete contractor providing onsite concrete production for the state and federal projects throughout the southwest. Cooper Engineering specializes on unique projects.
Cooper Engineering owns and operates portable forming equipment, and specializes on high production short term custom projects. Cooper Engineering has joint ventured with several general contractors on recent freeway projects in Southern California. Job site production requirements range greatly from 200 to 2,000 yards per day.
Challenge
Cooper Engineering recently was awarded the concrete production contract for the California Freeway interchange of the 210 and 215 freeways in San Bernardino County. Space for the plant operation would be limited with high production demands. Super 10 trucks will be used for concrete transportation to the placement equipment.
Lower production requirements could be accomplished without the need of a the CON-E-CO 12 yard Tilt Mixer, while other production phases would require over 300 yards per hour.
Solution
On site production with a CON-E-CO LO-PRO 427CM Self-Erect Mobile Concrete Batch Plant with CON-E-CO 12 yard tilt mixer Cooper Engineering was able to meet their customers needs with a highly versatile mobile concrete batch plant.
Result
Plant design allows for flexible site material storage and production capacities. Future project production requirements will allow Cooper Engineering to produce concrete via the dry batch or wet batch process with same equipment.
By producing their own concrete, Cooper Engineering can better control their concrete production and provide more flexible services to their customers.
Producing concrete in the dry batch or wet batch will allow Cooper Engineering the capability to bid future projects that they would not have been able to in the past.
