Chisel or high pressure water blasting
Consumption
Approx. 20 kg of powder product per m² per 10mm layer thickness
Dilution
3,5 – 4,2 ltr / 25kg
Uses
It is suitable for:
- Repairs of structural elements of concrete ( beams, columns) using formworks
- Concrete jackets with dense reinforcement
- Precision grouting of machinery and steel columns
- Horizontal anchoring of steel reinforcing bars
Advantages
- High strength (R4 class)
- It contains pure quartz aggregates
- Shrinkage compensated
- Impermeable
- No bleeding or segregation
- High flow (EN 13395-2) for full compaction even in areas with congested steelwork
Concrete repair:
- The concrete substrate must be completely clean and structurally sound.
- The edges of the surface to be repaired should be cut vertically to a depth of at least 10 mm. The cavity of the surface to be repaired should be at least 10 mm thick.
- Remove deteriorated concrete or mortar by hand or mechanical methods (chisel or high pressure water blasting) ensuring also the appropriate surface roughness.
- Reinforcement should be cleaned from rust and any other loose and deleterious materials or add new bars if the existing are no longer appropriate.
- Before applying FLUIDCRETE the substrate should be saturated with water.
- Remove excess water, if any.
- In a clean bucket, initially pour the minimum amount of water indicated, start the mixer and add FLUIDCRETE continuously. Mix (in low speed) until a homogeneous, without lumps, mixture is achieved.
- Then leave the mixture to settle for 2 – 3 min and if necessary add water (according to the amount indicated), until the required consistency is achieved and mix for a further 2 to 3 minutes.
- FLUIDCRETE is casted in situ continuously, placing it inside the formwork from one side only to allow air to escape.
- Hand mixing of the product is not recommended.
Precision grouting:
- Before placing the machine, remove defective concrete ensuring also the appropriate roughness of the concrete surface.
- Clean all in contact, with the mortar surfaces, from oil, grease, dust or any foreign material.
- Ensure that air-relief holes have been made on the bedplate and place the equipment.
- After machine is set and aligned and before applying FLUIDCRETE, saturate the concrete surface with water and remove excess water if any.
- Mix the mortar (as specified above) and cast in situ continuously, placing it inside the formwork from one side only to allow air to escape.
General:
- After application all free surfaces of the mortar should be properly cured for at least 2 days. During the summer period with wet burlaps, spraying water or curing agents and during winter period should be protected from low temperatures with plastic sheets.
- The above application guidelines are indicative, for the correct use of the product. For more technical details please contact the company’s technical department.
- For thickness application> 50mm also contact the technical department of NORDIA SA.
- Mixing ratio: 3.5 – 4.2 lt of water per bag of 25 kg
Maximum storage time in intact packaging and dry environment: 12 months from the production date
