DIGITAL CONCRETE SOLUTIONS
Digital transformation is one cornerstone of Holcim’s drive for pragmatic innovation and serving its clients as a full-service concrete solutions provider. The ability to access, analyze and apply relevant data is seen as key to helping clients optimize efficiency, minimize waste, increase sustainability and maximize the probability of project success.
To that end, Holcim has developed a suite of digital applications (Holcim Digital Solutions) which can be deployed at critical stages of the development process to help stakeholders across the construction value chain, such as developing the right mix designs, planning, ordering, live monitoring performance, scheduling and logistics. These applications, which leverage Holcim’s vast resources of project and process data, allow project stakeholders to base critical decisions on accurate, up-to-date information.

SMARTCAST: MATURITY MONITORING FOR TIME OPTIMIZATION
SMARTCast speeds up the construction process with sensors installed in concrete to measure its temperature and assess its strength in real time.
The data is stored in a cloud-based platform, allowing customers to track the strength development process anytime, anywhere.
Reducing on-site management time, SMARTCast can accelerate construction by up to four days per floor for a high-rise building. Before the concrete pour even begins, Holcim helps customers optimize their concrete mix design for the lowest possible environmental impact.
SMARTFLOW: PUMPING PREDICTION FOR ENHANCED EFFICIENCY
SMARTFlow uses a digital simulation to measure concrete flowability and match it to the appropriate pump for use in the field.
This reduces costs and delays that might otherwise be caused by underperformance or overdesign. Using the service also means zero waste from real-size trials, contributing to sustainable construction.
SMARTHERM: TEMPERATURE SIMULATION FOR RISK MITIGATION AND COST OPTIMIZATION
SMARTherm simulates concrete temperature development for mass elements, under unique conditions.
Taking into consideration design geometry, multiple mix designs and varying environmental conditions, to reduce cost, mitigate risk and optimize the thermal profile.
