Essentially, this product can be made as extremely flow-able as possible without the isolation of the aggregate. The mixture will flow around crevices, corners, and fortifying steel easier when compared to other types of concrete. Again high strengths can be derived and the connection to the surfaces of other concrete is excellent. This new product gives room for a difficult or hard to reach areas to form.
