Rapid Concrete Delivery for Remote & Elevated Sites
HeliCrane.net utilizes aerial concrete buckets to deliver wet concrete to pour sites inaccessible to ready-mix trucks or ground pumps. Whether reinforcing a mountain trail, constructing a dam spillway, or pouring a foundation on a high-rise, our aerial delivery system ensures continuous, rapid placement.
We operate buckets ranging from 0.5 to 2 cubic yards, depending on altitude and aircraft performance. Our pilots are skilled in "ag" turns and precision hovering, allowing for rapid cycles between the staging area and the pour site, often outperforming ground pumps in speed and volume over difficult terrain.
Application Areas
- Remote Foundations: Transmission towers, ski lifts, and remote cabins.
- Civil Engineering: Dam repairs, retaining walls, and erosion control.
- Urban Construction: High-rise floors where pumps cannot reach.
- Efficiency: Fast turnaround times to prevent cold joints in the pour.
- Precision: Direct discharge into forms, minimizing manual labor.
Flight Logistics
Successful concrete operations rely on the "cycle time"—the duration of a round trip. We analyze the distance between the batch plant/truck staging area and the pour site to calculate the required number of aircraft or rotation speed to match the curing rate of the concrete. We provide the buckets, rigging, and ground communication needed for a seamless pour.
