Concrete Road & Pavement
Portland cement concrete paving for roads, industrial yards, and high-traffic applications — engineered for 30+ year service life under New Mexico conditions.
When Concrete Is the Right Choice
Concrete paving is the correct specification for applications where asphalt would fail — heavy forklift and truck traffic, extreme point loading from container yards, fuel-spill exposure, and situations where long-term maintenance costs must be minimized. Portland cement concrete in New Mexico provides 30–40 years of service life with minimal maintenance when properly designed and constructed.
- Subgrade preparation and verification to support concrete slab without pumping or rocking
- Proper joint layout to control cracking — doweled transverse joints and tied longitudinal joints
- Curing compound applied immediately after finishing to prevent plastic shrinkage cracking
- Joint sawing performed within the required time window to prevent random cracking

Design Matters More Than Mix
The most common cause of concrete pavement failure is inadequate subgrade support — not mix design. We verify subgrade compaction, design the correct slab thickness for your traffic loading, and specify the appropriate concrete mix and joint layout to control cracking and prevent joint deterioration in New Mexico's thermal environment.

Concrete Paving Applications
Where concrete outperforms asphalt over the life of the pavement.
Industrial Yard Paving
Forklift yards, container storage areas, truck staging, and heavy equipment pads where point loads would cause asphalt to rut and deform under New Mexico heat.
Road Construction
Concrete road sections for arterial and collector streets, intersections, and bus stops where concrete's long service life and low maintenance justify the higher initial cost.
Curb, Gutter & Flatwork
Integral and separate concrete curb and gutter, median noses, valley gutters, residential flatwork, and all concrete flatwork associated with roadway construction.
Bridge Approaches & Transitions
Concrete approach slabs and asphalt-to-concrete transition sections for bridge structures and grade changes where slab stability is critical.
