Properties of Vibro Compacted and Pressed Concrete Products with Varnished Surface

Abstract

Technology of so-called vibro compacted pressed concrete is currently used inter alia for manufacture of concrete products like concrete paving blocks, slabs, curbs or walling elements. Particularly wear layers of products for paving have recently been improved by special methods and technologies. The paper summarizes current knowledge of vibro compacted pressed concrete products with surface finish treated with hardened varnish. Main focus is on description of individual methods of finalizing wear layers of such products.
