High production plant
The Need
At Grand Rapids Gravel Company, Michigan, it became necessary
to relocate a high-production plant outside city limits for easier access to a new market and faster
supply of raw materials. After this great success, they purchased a second plant with a 12
yd³ RollMaster® reversing drum mixer and more storage capacity to replace their old
flagship plant situated in the middle of Grand Rapids, which was unable to keep-up with increased
demand.
BMH Solution
In addition to the 12 yd³ central mix plant with
800 tons of cement and 1 600 tons of aggregate storage, BMH Systems designed and supplied the steel
frame for the building and the aggregate heating system.
