 INTRODUCTION
• Buiding construction in small and crowded regions have
limited space for the storage of raw materials at the building
site. As a result, ready mix concrete was designed as a solution
to this issue.

• Also rapid urbanization has resulted in commercial projects

like shopping malls, retail stores, multiplexes, convention
centers which have significantly increased the market demand
for high-quality Ready mix concrete.

• The ready-mix concrete sector is expected to generate more

than $600 billion in revenue by 2025.
 INTRODUCTION…

• In this study a feasibility analysis for construction of new

RMC plant is carried out.

• A case study on an existing RMC plant in Belagavi is

conducted to examine all the prerequisites required to
establish a new RMC plant.

• With reference to the case study a plan for the proposal of new
RMC plant is developed .
FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS FOR ESTABLISHING
A NEW RMC PLANT
• Belagavi is the fourth-largest city in Karnataka and 5 ready-
mix concrete plants are located in it.

• As Belagavi is the center for two main national highway there

are many high cost projects being constructed in and around
Belagavi which is a boost for ready mix concrete industry.

• The need for ready-mix concrete is being fueled by the

increasing number of infrastructure projects, such as bridges,
highways, and airport development projects
METHODOLOGY
 OPINION SURVEY
A questionnaire survey was conducted among several
engineers and data was collected on their preferences over
ready mix concrete and site mix concrete.

COST REQUIRED FOR SETTING UP OF A
NEW RMC PLANT
The various costs required for setting up a new RMC plant
include the following :
• Area required : 2 acres approx.
As the preferred location of the client is Ambewadi, the
cost of 2 acre of land is amounted to 90 lakhs.
• Cost of Machinery
• Cost for production of concrete

 CONCLUSIONS
• It is concluded by feasibility analysis that it is feasible to set up
a new RMC plant near Belagavi.

• The total cost required for the setup of a new RMC plant is
about Rs 5 Crore.

• The production cost of 1m3 of M20 grade of concrete of

existing plant is 4885Rs whereas that for the new proposed
plant is 4800 Rs .A cost reduction of 85 Rs per m3 of concrete
can be achieved in the new proposed plant.
