MOT Type 1 near me 

When contractors search for ‘Type 1 crushed concrete in Hoddesdon’ our name pops up.

MOT is a type of crushed concrete that has been approved for use in sub bases. The Ministry of Transport approves materials for use in sub bases, which is where the product gains its name. 

So, what is MOT Type 1?

It contains granite and limestone. We take the materials from quarries and grind them together. Batches of Type 1 contain materials that range from dust to 40mm chunks. 

The combination of big and small materials is perfect for sub bases. MOT Type 1 sub bases can hold car parks and even motorways.

Recycled Type 1 MOT

This is the most popular type of MOT that we source from recycled materials. Our industrial machines collect materials from demolition sites. We collect a lot of concrete, but our machines might also scoop up other building materials.

We grind the materials together to create 40mm chunks. Our batches of Recycled Type 1 MOT contain pieces that range from dust to 40mm.

This product is perfect for contractors who want to build affordable sub bases. It also enables contractors to build formations that meet environmentally-friendly quotas.

MOT Type 2 Clean

So, what is MOT Type 2?

This type of MOT is sometimes called Clean because it does not contain dust particles. We use industrial machines to collect granite and limestone from quarries. Once we have the pieces, we grind them down to 40mm chunks. 

Contractors often use MOT Type 2 for drainage systems. Other types of MOT that contain dust particles will clog drainage systems.

6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm

6F5 Recycled Aggregates are sometimes referred to as 6F2 Recycled Aggregates. 

We take concrete from demolition sites. Our industrial machines might also scoop up wood, brick, and any other building materials in the vicinity. The materials would otherwise be thrown away. 

Once we have the materials we grind them together to form 75mm chunks. 

We recommend 6F2 Recycled Aggregates for contractors who need to complete bulk-fill projects. It is an affordable alternative to primary materials such as granite. 

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

Screened concrete undergoes an extra manufacturing process. Once we have collected the materials from quarries we remove the dust particles. This means that only 40mm pieces of crushed concrete remain.

Concrete floor screening is robust and long-lasting. It can hold heavy structures such as patios and pathways. 

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

We make 75mm screened crushed concrete in the same way that we make 40mm screened crushed concrete.

Screening concrete floors is normal practice for contractors in Hoddesdon. Once the concrete is in place, builders can create all sorts of structures.

What can I use crushed concrete for?

There are lots of ways that contractors use crushed concrete. It is primarily used in sub bases, but it can also go into drainage systems and floors. 

Here are some of the ways that contractors use the materials that we sell. 

Contractors often buy 20mm concrete to add to other batches. Smaller pieces of hardcore materials can fall into the crevices of batches that contain larger pieces. This can create an overall more robust structure. 

MOT Type 1 sub bases are strong and robust. They can hold heavy structures like motorways. 

Recycled Type 1 MOT is more affordable than other types of MOT. It is made from recycled hardcore materials. The materials form an excellent base for building formations like motorways and car parks. 

Contractors purchase MOT Type 2 for sub bases and drainage systems. We filter the fine bits of dust out of the batch. Contractors can use Type 2 MOT for drainage projects without worrying that pieces of concrete will clog the system. 

6F2 Recycled Aggregates are made for bulk-fill tasks. Each batch contains a range of hardcore materials including concrete and brick. We recommend this product for contractors who need affordable bulk products.

Will crushed concrete compact?

It depends on how contractors use the concrete.

Crushed concrete can be used in loose-fill projects. It is most often used as a sub base for building formations. Contractors must lay and roll concrete to create adequate sub bases. Once the installation process is underway, the concrete will begin to compact. 

Contractors can build all sorts of formations on top of sub bases. Motorways, car parks, and driveways are all structures that need bases. The weight of the formations forces the materials inside the sub bases to compact. 

As bases compact they lose a few inches each year. 

What is finer Type 1 MOT or Type 2 MOT?

Type 1 MOT and Type 2 MOT are very similar. Both contain granite and limestone that are sourced from quarries across Hoddesdon. Once we have the materials, we grind the pieces to form 40mm chunks.

Both have MOT in the title, which stands for Ministry of Transport. 

There is one main difference between Type 1 MOT and Type 2 MOT. Type 1 contains concrete that ranges from dust to 40mm. We filter the dust out of Type 2, which means that only 40mm pieces remain.

Does crushed concrete drain?

The flow rate of a material tells us how quickly liquid can drain through. Some construction tasks need materials that have a high flow rate. The higher the flow rate, the quicker the liquid can travel through. 

Recycled Type 1 MOT contains crushed concrete. The materials in these batches range from dust to 40mm. Liquid can drain through, but not very quickly. Liquids might also carry away the dust particles and clog systems. 

Type 2 MOT does not contain dust particles. It is better suited to building tasks that need high flow rates. 

Will crushed concrete harden?

Yes, crushed concrete will harden over time. Concrete is already a hardcore material, but it will continue to harden under the weight of building formations. Contractors often build motorways and even car parks on top of crushed materials. Over time, the pieces of concrete will meld together and create a more robust structure. 

Concrete that has been ground into chunks will never be as hard or as smooth as ready mix concrete.

Is crushed concrete toxic?

We create crushed concrete by grinding together quarried concrete and bricks from demolition projects. The materials that we source are tested in a laboratory. The tests that we conduct ensure the materials are suitable for use. 

When we work with crushed concrete, particles are released into the air. We grind the pieces of concrete together. Our staff wear PPE to avoid exposure. Breathing in these particles can have a long-term impact on health. Our customers do not have to worry about exposure when they wear the correct PPE.
