New ProductsDryAir Hydronic Heaters and Curing/Ground Thaw SystemsContractors Materials Company and MMI of Kentucky are now stocking the DryAir temporary heating, drying, ground thaw, and curing systems. Originally designed to dehumidify grain silos, the main hydronic heating component of the DryAir system was found to be an excellent answer to problems created on cold and damp construction sites, as well as, for remediation work. Schnell IDEA Cage MachineDuring the summer of 2004, Contractors Materials Company (CMC) and MMI of Kentucky (MMI) each installed a Schnell IDEA rebar resistance (fusion) welding machine at each of their locations to compliment the Schnell GTM-MIG rebar welding machine that was installed at CMC in early 2003. Whereas the GTM machine MIG welds spiral rebar cage assemblies together, the IDEA machine resistance welds individual T-2, T-3, and other individual rebar stirrups into a skeletal cage into which longitudinal and/or vertical bars are then traditionally tied. GTMContractors Materials Company has installed a new Schnell "GTM" machine that automatically forms and robotically welds rebar spiral cage assemblies. Only the third machine of its type in North America, the GTM machine has been successfully used for the past fifteen years in Europe, the Mid-East, the Far East, and Australia. For weldability, the GTM machine utilizes dual certified ASTM A615/A615M Grade 60 and ASTM A706/A706M low alloy deformed rebar. For design purposes, the dual certified steel used in the GTM machine produced spiral cage assemblies has a minimum yield of 60,000 psi and tensile of 90,000 psi. ADA SolutionsContractors Materials Company is now stocking Cast-In-Place Composite Paver Tiles (Brick Red). This product is used in curb ramps, rail crossings and platform edges.The paver unit is pressed flush into wet concrete, tamped in place, and any residual debris is removed from the paver surface. Installation is complete in fifteen minutes. This product will be sold in 2' x 4' sections. ppp Read More SpinmasterIn March of 2006, Contractors Materials Company installed its newest and most innovative piece of rebar fabrication equipment thus far. The SpinMaster, manufactured by KRB Machinery in York, Pennsylvania, and engineered by Arm-Tec of Oerbaek, Denmark, was the first machine of its type installed in North America. The SpinMaster literally ties together individual lengths of rebar with 12 gauge annealed wire into a single plane monolithic mat. PNA Diamond Dowel SystemAchieve superior load transfer with the original tapered plate dowel system. Since 1996, contractors and engineers have used the Diamond Dowel system in more than 1 billion square feet of placed concrete to deliver the durable, maintenance-free concrete flatwork customers expect. PNA HydraCure Covers - S16 & M5The inorganic fibers in HydraCure covers keep water where you want it - ON the slab surface. HydraCure covers ensure a gradual, uniform and controlled curing environment for slabs-on-ground by keeping the water on the slab surface and maintaining an even water coverage. Viper VaporCheck Vapor BarriersViper VaporCheck is a material for construction that impedes the transmission of water vapor under specified conditions. Vapor retarders are designed to reduce moisture migration through slab-on-grade applications. The physical characteristics of a vapor retarder consist of high puncture resistance, high tensile strength and low moisture permeability.
JackJaw Stake ExtractorsThe JackJaw form pin and stake extractors make and easy task of pulling concrete form pins and stakes after your concrete is poured. With a single pump of the handle, most stakes will break loose. The ergonomic design easily grabs the stake for a second pull, if needed.
