Ready-mix concrete is often the best choice for projects because it's easy to use and requires little labor. Having the product manufactured for you and delivered to your site allows you to focus on what matters most: planning and preparing the dimensions and mold for your project. This means you can maximize your time and energy on the things that matter most.

We believe it's important to simplify the process of selecting the right concrete for your job and provide you with the information you need to balance price and performance. Therefore, we categorize the products by type of project and value propositions that we call "good, better and the best". This allows you to decide whether your project requires standard concrete or high performance concrete, depending on your needs.

For sidewalks and patios, customers often choose conventional concrete ("C2") with a compressive strength of 250 kg/m3 and a nominal aggregate size of 20 mm. If higher strength is required, the C2 strength can be increased or the MR grade with a nominal aggregate size of 40mm can be selected instead.

There are several considerations that may be important when choosing concrete for sidewalks and patios in Mexico City:

• Moisture prevention. In areas prone to flooding or exposure to moisture, it may be beneficial to incorporate waterproofing additives. This helps reduce exposure to moisture to the concrete, improving its appearance and extending its useful life.
• Crack prevention. If the concrete is going to be subjected to heavy traffic or pressure, adding fiber admixtures can reduce the likelihood or impact of cracking. This is important because it affects the appearance and performance of the concrete.
• Styles, colors and finishes. Since concrete is the most versatile construction product on the planet, you can easily choose from a wide variety of pigments and finishes to suit your personal preferences.

Finally, since these are exterior installations, it is important to consider temperature, rainfall, and a quiet environment so that the concrete can fully cure. Fortunately, Mexico City rarely faces extreme weather conditions, but it is important to incorporate these aspects into your planning process.
