At the Thai expressway drainage construction site, scorching sun and sudden downpours constantly tested the engineering team’s endurance and efficiency. To complete the critical drainage ditch construction within the construction schedule, the contractor selected the SHANGHE HZS90 stationary concrete batching plant as the core equipment to ensure a stable concrete supply, manageable costs, and high quality.
Project Overview: Concrete Supply under Harsh Conditions
In July 2025, the SHANGHE team successfully completed the on-site installation and commissioning of the HZS90 concrete batching plant. Once operational, the equipment will be used specifically to support concrete production for the expressway’s drainage system (including ditches, culverts, and drainage channels).
The project is located in an inaccessible area, with limited transportation and material supply, and an extremely tight construction schedule. Achieving a continuous and stable concrete supply under these conditions became a primary concern for the construction company.
Client Challenges
High Schedule Pressure: The drainage project must proceed simultaneously with the main expressway construction, with no delays.
Cost Control: Avoid the high costs of long-distance transportation of ready-mixed concrete and reduce reliance on large equipment rentals.
Quality Assurance: Concrete must meet strength and durability requirements while maintaining good workability and consistency in high temperatures and heavy rainfall.
Continuous Production: Drainage construction is a continuous process, requiring a constant supply of concrete.
Why Choose the SHANGHE HZS90?
After evaluating various options (including small mobile concrete mixers, large ready-mixed concrete plants, and ready-mixed concrete procurement), the client found that none of these options met their comprehensive schedule, cost, and quality requirements. Ultimately, the HZS90 stationary concrete batching plant was the best choice for the following reasons:
Stable and Efficient: Continuously produces high-quality concrete every hour, ensuring uninterrupted construction.
Adaptable to the Environment: The equipment has been proven in numerous locations in Southeast Asia and can withstand the challenges of high temperatures and heavy rainfall.
Cost Advantage: The overall investment is lower than purchasing ready-mixed concrete or renting a large concrete batching plant, providing greater long-term value.
Technical Support: The SHANGHE engineering team was on-site throughout the project, responsible for installation, commissioning, and operator training to ensure a smooth start-up.
Project Results
After the HZS90 concrete batching plant went into operation smoothly, the local construction team quickly mastered its operation. The trial production produced concrete of stable quality and excellent workability, maintaining a continuous supply and enabling the drainage project to proceed faster than originally planned.
The equipment is now fully operational. The client stated that they plan to expand the plant’s value by integrating it into municipal engineering and regional construction projects in the future.
