Northeast construction demands concrete that can withstand temperature swings while maintaining its structural and visual appeal. EcoCrete recently completed a project at IBM Yorktown Heights in Lower NY State, providing high-quality regular concrete engineered for durability.
The Challenge: Constructing and Site Constraints
Constructing high-strength topping slabs and heavy-duty perimeter curbs within a secure, high-clearance research facility.
The Solution: Custom Engineering & Execution
We coordinated strict security clearances and poured reinforced concrete topping slabs and curbs according to strict architectural specifications.
- Sub-Base Preparation: Compacted aggregates to prevent frost heaves and slab movement.
- Reinforcement Design: Steel rebar and fiber meshes configured to resist heavy traffic.
- Technical Specifications: 4500 PSI concrete, galvanized steel rebar, and custom curb forms.
A Lasting Concrete Surface
By tailoring the concrete mix and sub-base compaction, the new surface at IBM Yorktown Heights is ready to handle severe Northeast winter freeze-thaw cycles with minimal maintenance, proving that premium design and heavy-duty engineering can go hand-in-hand.
