The agent successfully navigates to the 'Ready Mix Concrete (RMC): Advantages and Disadvantages' article. For Ready Mix Concrete (RMC), one advantage is listed (e.g., better quality control, faster construction, reduced labor, reduced waste, economical, lower noise and air pollution). For Ready Mix Concrete (RMC), one disadvantage is listed (e.g., time constraint, transportation issues, initial cost). The agent successfully navigates to the 'What is Self Compacting Concrete?' article. The agent states that the primary reason for SCC's development was the decline in the availability of skilled labor in Japan in the 1980s, leading to a need for concrete to overcome problems of defective workmanship. The agent identifies 'highly workable concrete' or 'high workability' as a key property that helps SCC overcome issues like segregation.
