Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIESThese unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of U.S. Concrete, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” or “U.S. Concrete”) and were prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim financial statements. While these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Such estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, our goodwill and long-lived asset valuations; inventory valuation; assessment of the effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes; valuation of liabilities for workers' compensation, automobile, and general liability; allowance for doubtful accounts; and measurement of cash bonus plans. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 10-K”). We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with the current year presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are presented in U.S. dollars. Certain computations may be impacted by the effect of rounding in this report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year primarily due to the impact of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, weather patterns and general economic conditions in our markets.
