Which code does this activity belong in?
Ready-mix concrete manufacturing establishments deliver concrete in plastic, unhardened form from batch or mix plants, whereas cement manufacturing produces the binding ingredient itself that goes into concrete. Concrete pipe, brick, and block manufacturers shape concrete into finished hardened products for construction, while ready-mix operations supply the fluid material before it hardens, allowing purchasers to place and finish it on-site.
