Identifying the damage

Type of damage

- Concrete is a composite material that consists essentially of a combination of fine and coarse aggregates bonded with a paste resulting from the portland cement hydration. - The distress of the reinforced concrete is a result of the presence of three simultaneous factors: interconnected porosity, presence of water or moisture and exposure to agressive agents. - Concrete can be damaged by many processes, that are divided into 4 types: physical,chemical, mechanical and application damage.

Physical damage Physical damage occur due to fire, water leakage, shrinkage, abrasion or freeze/thaw cycles.

Chemical damage Chemical damage occur due to carbonation, chloride, sulfate attack or Alkali Silica reaction


Type of damage

Mechanical damage

Application damages This type of damage can be related to lack of concrete vibration during the pouring, wrong water/cement ratio, lack of demolding agents, insufficient curing...etc.

Honeycombs are formed because of a lack in concrete vibration and low malleability.

Pinholes result from inconvenient water/ cement ratio and / or lack of shutter release oil.

Identifying the damage

Mechanical damage occur due to movements, overloads or impact.

Different types of cracks can appear after demolding and setting of the new concrete.

Identifying the damage

Concrete diagnosis If the concrete is not designed and applied properly, steel reinforcement may be corroded,could increase in volume and push the concrete to crack and delaminate and consequently provoke further deterioration. They are 3 methods to identify damage in concrete:the visual inspection, the physical inspection and the quantitative inspection.

Steps after damage identification: 1- Defected areas should be delimited using a marker pen by drawing a line around the perimeter of the damaged area. 2- Break out the marked areas using a light jack hammer until reaching sound concrete. 3- If sound concrete is reached before reaching steel bars, then the repair will be restricted to the concrete surface itself. 4- If sound concrete is not reached, breaking of concrete should continue until the steel reinforcement bars appear. 5- If steel reinforcement bars are found corroded, breaking should continue beyond the corroded part until reaching sound steel re-bars

Identifying the damage

Concrete diagnosis

Quantitative inspection Compressive strength test In order to assess the compressive strength, samples are taken from the concrete and tested. From fresh concrete, samples are molded into cylinders that are crushed upon 1, 7 and 28 days. For old concrete, samples are taken by coring cylinders out of the element in question. Low compressive strength is explained by high porosity, making the concrete vulnerable to carbonation and chloride diffusion.

Coring Test

By all means, the minimum compressive strength should be determined by the stuctural engineer.

Carbonation depth test Exposed concrete may be attacked by carbon dioxide present in the air. CO reacts with the free lime present in the concrete ² to form water and calcium carbonate, harmful to the reinforcing steel.

Solution of phenolphthalein in ethanol

Carbonated Layer(Clear) shown hatched on illustration

The measurement of carbonation depth using phenolphthalein solution is carried out by spraying the solution on the surface of the concrete. Surfaces with pH below 10 (carbonated) will have no change in color, with a pH above 10 the color of concrete will change to a pink color.

Chloride diffusion test Concrete exposed to the sea is extremely vulnerable to chloride ions diffusion. Chlorides are acid air borne gases. Once they reach the steel reinforcement, in the presence of oxygen, they destroy the passivity of the steel and provoke corrosion. Colorimetric method is a quick and simple method to measure the penetration depth of chloride by spraying a silver nitrate solution.

Concrete repair - Case 1

Repair of cracks in reinforced concrete Causes of concrete distress Cracks are the most frequent signs of concrete problems. A crack is a linear fracture in the concrete caused by tensile stresses exceeding the concrete tensile strength. Cracks in the plastic phase of concrete • There are cracks that develop in the plastic phase of the concrete such as plastic shrinkage cracks due to insufficient early curing and loss of water by fast evaporation. • Plastic settlement cracks appear when the concrete consolidation is restrained by the steel bars. Cracks in the hardened phase of concrete • Some cracks develop in the hardened state of the concrete such as drying shrinkage crack, due to insufficient movement control and Thermal Shrinkage. Cracks develop in massive concrete due to sudden drop in ambient temperature as compared to the heat generated by the concrete. • Other types of cracks can develop occasionally, in cases such as freeze and thaw cycles, Alkali silica reaction or structural distress. Some of them run linear and deeper through the thickness of the member and others are short in different directions while they remain on the surface. However all above cracks, if left without treatment, will make the concrete vulnerable and will lead to steel corrosion and further deterioration. Before undertaking any repair, a field investigation and structural analysis should be completed in order to establish the causes of the cracks. Cracks are divided into dry cracks and Wet cracks. In this section, we are treating the linear dry cracks only; wet cracks will be treated in the waterproofing section.

Linear Dry Cracks in reinforced concrete should be strengthened and consolidated using Conrep.i 650. It is a low viscosity 2-component epoxy injection resin capable to fill the full depth of the crack. The following steps should be observed: • All cracks should be fully dry. • Injection surface packers should be placed with equal distance between them. Clean thoroughly the surface of the crack and seal each packer using Conrep.412 CRY, an epoxy adhesive.


• The same adhesive Conrep.412 CRY should be used to seal the whole surface of the crack to play the role of capping in order to prevent the Conrep.i 650 from escaping during injection. • The work process requires the use of an injection device that could be manual, pneumatic or electrical. The injection starts from the lowest packer and stops when Conrep.i 650 appears from the next packer. • Close the same packer with its nipple and inject it with Conrep.i 650. Continue working the same until all the sealed packers are injected. • Remove capping by scrapping and grinding. Moving Linear Cracks For Moving Linear Cracks replace Conrep.i 650 with Conrep.i 600, a low viscosity flexible 2-component polyurethane resin which reacts to form a flexible seal.

Concrete repair - Case 2

Repair of damage with exposed steel reinforcement

Surface preparation Before undertaking any concrete repair, care should be taken to fix props and supports around the location to be repaired, especially in the surroundings of damaged columns and beams. The following surface preparation is recommended:

1

STEP 1: • By using a marker pen, delimit the area of damage. • Break beyond the delimited area until reaching sound concrete and steel. • With a jack hammer, saw-cut 2 cm deep in 90° angle the perimeter of breaking, in order to avoid feather edges. • All weak, damaged and easily removable concrete should be chipped away. If the re-bars are only partially exposed after all unsound concrete is removed, it may not be necessary to remove additional concrete to expose the full circumference of the reinforcement. When the exposed reinforcement steel has loose wrap, corrosion or is not well bonded to the surrounding concrete, the concrete removal should continue until a clear space of 15 to 25 mm is created behind the reinforcing steel.

2

STEP 2: • Clean steel reinforcement with mechanical wire-brushing or by sand blasting. • In case the reinforcing bars are corroded and have lost more than 25% of their diameter, they have to be cut and removed.

3

STEP 3: • In such event, removed steel bars should be replaced with new steel bars of the same diameter either by respecting the overlap length or by welding 100 mm length to the existing steel

4

STEP 4: • Remove dust by air blowing and wash with clean water to achieve a Surface Saturated Dry (SSD) substrate.

Repair of superficial concrete damage

22

Surface preparation Shallow damages in old concrete may occur by contamination. As previously mentioned in the Concrete Diagnosis, it may also occur due to accidental impacts, abrasion, erosion or freeze / thaw cycles.

In the freshly casted concrete, superficial damage are revealed as honeycombs with exposed aggregates, pinholes or surface imperfections. In case of honeycombs, imperfections are chiseled until sound concrete is reached. Then, the surface should be cleaned from dirt, dust, paint and laitance by grinding or air blowing. Surface should be dampened with water to surface saturated dry prior to any repair.

In case of pinholes, surface should be dampened with water to surface saturated dry prior to cementitious repair. In case of using epoxy based products for repair, water should not be used on the surface in any circumstance. The area should be grinded in order to get rid of laitance, paint or any covering material, and then should be cleaned with an air blower.

Repair of damaged slabs and horizontal elements

24

Surface preparation The surface preparation of horizontal elements aims to eliminate all defections and assure horizontality of the slab or element. The surface should be grinded to put out the slab level; and then cleaned from dust, grease or any other material that could prevent the adhesion of the repair product. Where the element has a small differentiation in leveling, grinding would be enough for the leveling. In case of bigger slope difference, it is recommended to use a scarifying machine before grinding the surface.

Solution A: Floor patching The case of damaged slabs often happens with concrete floors in parking area or in any public and industrial areas designed to receive coatings or thin flooring. Repair of such damages should be observed as follows, depending on the repair dimensions: • Small defects or imperfections: Use Conrep.412 CRY, a solvent free, 2-component epoxy paste and fairing coat capable to fill pinholes and cracks and adjust small imperfections of a concrete slab. • Defects above 10 mm thickness: After the surface has been prepared, in the case of smooth surfaces, prime the concerned area with Eposil.plus (primer and sealer).Allow to cure for a maximum of 24 hours before applying the mortar. Use Conrep.420 SC, a solvent free 3-component epoxy based mortar capable to fill damaged patches in concrete slabs. Due to its high strength and bonding power, Conrep.420 SC will resist medium to heavy load traffic. Mix first mechanically the 2 epoxy parts until a homogeneous mix is obtained. Pour slowly the 3rd part (fillers) while mixing thoroughly until reaching a thick flowable mortar. Apply Conrep.420 SC by pouring onto the required area to patch. Level it properly with a steel float.

Solution B: Feather edging Concrete stair steps as well as lateral faces of expansion joints are frequently damaged, representing feather edges. Re-instating the proper shape can be achieved using Conrep.410 RSA. Conrep.410 RSA is a solvent free epoxy mortar composed of 3 components (2 parts epoxy and 1 part fillers) capable to repair the edges due to its high bonding and strength properties. Mix first mechanically the 2 parts epoxy until a homogeneous mix is obtained. Pour slowly the 3rd part of filler while mixing thoroughly until reaching a thick paste. Apply the mix with a spatula and wait for a while. Before hardening, smoothen the surface with a steel float in order to re-instate the original shape.

Anchoring of steel bars in concrete

26

Anchoring steel bars in concrete is needed when an additional structural concrete member is to be linked to existing structure or to increase the section of the existing structure. Before anchoring steel bars into concrete, data should be collected related to: • Concrete strength in which steel bars are to be anchored • Class of steel used for anchoring • Effective load that the steel bar will be subjected to. Based on the above data, the choice of steel diameter, depth of anchoring and distance between anchors will be determined.


Anchoring of steel bars in concrete

Conrep.405 BFX

Anchoring of steel bars The material to be used for anchoring steel bars in concrete should be capable to bond the steel bar without pulling when the load is applied. We recommend the use of Conrep.405 BFX. It is a pure epoxy anchoring resin supplied in one kit of 2-component cartridges linked together with one single head. It is specially recommended for heavy loads in rebar application and anchoring in solid concrete. It is applied as follows: • Drill hole to correct diameter and depth (Refer to data sheet). • Clean the drilled hole thoroughly using wire-brush and remove all dust using a manual air blower. • Place the kit of 2 cartridges of Conrep.405 BFX in their appropriate dispenser gun and attach the mixing nozzle Horizontal Anchoring to the head. • Discard the first 10 cm (3 triggers) until the mix has an even color. • Inject from the base of the drilled hole while pulling upwards as the hole fills until 1/3 to 1/2 of the volume. • Insert the rebar or thread slowly with a rotating motion until resin is overflowed on the surface. Rotate again and remove any excess of Conrep.405 BFX immediately. • Refer to the technical data sheet to determine the distance between re-bars. Vertical Anchoring

Bedding of machines plates

32

Machinery and equipment which have precise tolerances for alignment or require uniform support cannot be placed directly on finished concrete surfaces, therefore grout is poured and plays the role of a load transfer material between machine or equipment bases and their foundations. The support provided by a grout is the Effective Bearing Area. This can be affected by grout leakage, unlevelled plate, shrinkage of grout, inadequate mixing of grout, wrong placement method, poor grout flow or entrapped air voids. EBA can lead to point loading on the grout which in turn can result in cracking and crumbling of the grout under the baseplate. This could have disastrous consequences on the machine.

Bedding application problems Voids in the grout

The support provided by a grout is the Effective Bearing Area. This can be affected by grout leakage, unlevel plate, shrinkage of grout, inadequate mixing of grout, wrong placement method, poor grout flow or entrapped air voids. It can result in cracking and crumbling of the grout under the baseplate.

Cracks in the grout around the baseplate

Cement grouts rely on expansion to provide the non-shrink properties required of a precision bearing grout. This expansion needs to be confined under the baseplate, but if allowed to expand freely, the grout may crack due to shrinkage. This cracking is often seen where a cement grout has not been finished properly. Epoxy grouts are not affected as much as they have low inherent shrinkage.

Grout not flowing under the baseplate

Rapid installation of machinery is essential. A grout with poor flow will slow down the process. Some inferior epoxy grouts are cut back with diluents to improve flow but this can lead to excess shrinkage. Sodamco-Weber grouts have been developed to give good flow without any undesirable side-effects.

Substrate preparation Thoroughly scab the foundation, clean the area between the foundation and machine base-plate, as well as the anchor holes. Build a solid leak-proof formwork. Saturate the concrete foundation with water for at least few hours prior to pouring. Remove all residual water.

Mortar preparation The slurry or mortar is obtained by mixing Conrep.302 HF with water. The amount of water used varies according to the workability required. Add the powder to the water and mix for 3 minutes. To ensure a homogeneous and uniform mix, an electric mixer must be used.

Product application Pour Conrep.302 HF continuously, in one direction to avoid air pockets (by gravity, loading, pumping, and injection). The choice of installation method depends on the grouting thickness and the length of the machine. The grouting thickness must be between 3 and 6 cm for a pure mortar. Larger thickness may be filled by a micro-concrete with the addition of 3/8 aggregate. Once the mortar starts to set, apply on its surface: • A curing compound. • Or, if the configuration and the tightness of the forms allow it, pour 1 to 2 cm of cool water over the surface and leave it there until removal of form fixing.

Grouting and protection of post tensioned cables A major concern with existing bridges and some post-tensioned floors has been quality of grout and protection of tendons. A properly grouted duct will protect tendons from corrosion by providing an alkaline environment around and between the tendons. However, such factors with the grout as poor flow, segregation, air entrapment combined with procedural problems such as maintaining pumping pressure, protection of end plates and correct choice of ducting have led to many challenges facing the industry.

Voids in ducts The best way to ensure complete filling of the ducts and hence protection of the tendons is to use a top quality grout Conrep.303 HFG. The favored option is to use a combined colloidal mixer and pump with a constant pressure monitoring system. This ensures a steady flow of grout with a measured quantity of water without segregation and without air entrainment.

Conrep.303 HFG

Conrep.303 HFG is a ready to use, free flowing, and blended cementitious powder. It requires only the addition of water in a high shear mixer, to produce a free flowing grout. Conrep.303 HFG is a high strength, highly fluid, controlled expansive grout with superior dynamic load stability. It has been designed for grouting post tension cable. Conrep.303 HFG provides corrosion protection for highly stressed steel cables, rods and many other systems. This unique shrinkage compensating system in Conrep.303 HFG guarantees controlled positive expansion in all directions. The positive expansion of Conrep.303 HFG remains constant throughout the life of the grout.

Mixing

Mix 20 kg Conrep.303 HFG with 6 to 6.8 liters of cool potable water. Depending on the quantities to be prepared, a drill and paddle can be used for small applications or a high shear mixer and slow speed agitator for large applications, place into the mixer most but not all of the required water. Start mixer, then slowly add Conrep.303 HFG and continue mixing after all lumps have disappeared, add remaining water. Continue to mix for a total of 3 to 5 minutes or to uniform consistency. Mix only the amount of grout that can be placed in 20 to 30 minutes. Do not mix by hand. Ideal application temperature is between + 5ยบC and + 35ยบC. If the application temperature is higher than 35 ยบC, make sure to use cool water to keep the mixed grout temperature below 30 ยบC.

Injection

Place the Conrep.303 HFG in accordance with guide specification for post-tensioning structures. Contact our technical department for more details.

Repair of manhole covers and grids

36

Road ironwork such as manhole covers, road gullies and duct covers need to be bedded with a resilient mortar to prevent the unit rocking or breaking up under traffic loading. Often the reinstatement of ironwork is done within traffic possessions under temporary roadworks and the time to reinstate is a critical factor.

Constraints

The road needs to be rapidly set back to traffic, to avoid a too long traffic interruption

Ceiling of manholes should be quickly efficient, to resist to the weight of cars passing over it. A traditional site-mixed sand/cement bedding mortar will crack and crumble under traffic loads, resulting in premature failure of the cover and frame.

The final aspect of the manhole is important and it should be integrated in the road design

Clean dust and other materials, remove traces of oil, grease, etc‌ by brush or air-blowing

Humidify the area where the mortar will be laid. It should be wet but not waterlogged.

Substrate preparation

Break and cut 10cm around the manhole at a 90 degrees angle

Application Mortar preparation Prepare a plastic consistency mortar by mixing a 25 kg bag of Conrep.314 RD with 4 to 5 liters of clean water. Mixing must be done for at least 3 minutes until a homogeneous paste is obtained. Do not mix it with another hydraulic binder (cement, lime or gypsum) or an admixture.

Mortar application: Conrep.314 RD must be used within 10 minutes (at 30ºC) from mixing. Re-mixing with an extra amount of water is not recommended. Apply Conrep.314 RD on the substrate. The thickness under the frame should be at least 3 cm. Ideal application temperature is between + 5ºC and + 35ºC. If the application temperature is higher than 35ºC, make sure to use cool water to keep the mixed mortar temperature below 30ºC.

Placing the frame Place the frame and adjust it to road level (the grid/manhole should be perfectly adjusted and integrated in the road to avoid deterioration of the grid/manhole and to avoid damaging the cars when passing on it. Do not use wedges (metal, wood…)

Finishing Fill the gap between the frame and the road with Conrep.314 RD with a trowel. Then Finish with a float and level the mortar to road level, to have a perfect flat finish. After application, protect the surface by using a curing compound like Cure WT or Cure Y 40 or by covering with properly secured plastic sheeting.

Swellbar

Swellbar RB

PVC Waterstops are recommended to stop leakage positively through construction and expansion joints in concrete structures. They are required whenever concreting is to be made in 2 phases (between slab and slab or slab and wall or wall and wall).They are installed within the reinforcing steel before concreting. During concreting, one part is immersed in concrete while the other is kept free until the second phase of concreting takes place. They are made of flexible PVC and are available in different sizes and types. Swellable waterstops are recommended for construction joints. They are present in two types: Swellbar is a mix of bentonite and butyl rubber, and Swellbar.RB is a swellable waterstop in pure rubber. They have the ability to expand in presence of water. The expansion process is slow in time. It starts after 4 hours, hence enabling the concrete to set. They are present in different sizes, depending on the degree of protection required. Swellbar (SQ type) joint sealant are developed for use in both fresh and sea water.

Application of swellable waterstops and PVC waterstops • Uneven wet surfaces should be even, and hardened rough surfaces should be smoothened with the appropriate grinding machine, to install the swellable waterstops. • Use steel nails for fixing, a 25 to 30 cm interval is necessary between nails. • PVC Waterstops are tied to the reinforcement steel bars with steel wires through the holes in the perforations in the waterstop. • Overlap joints in the strips should be made at least 75 mm. Butt-joined is also acceptable but has to be carefully stuck down with mastic.

Waterproofing of raft foundations Waterproofing of immersed underground structures requires permanent dewatering during the execution phase and continues until the pressure caused by the weight of the concrete structure exceeds the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the water table. The type of foundations designed for such structures is most of the time raft foundation with or without piles, or a combination of raft and pile caps, depending on the bearing capacity of the soil. In such cases, the waterproofing is called tanking as it envelops completely the structure from the bottom to the water table level and preferably to the ground floor level. The waterproofing of the vertical part will start only when the full foundation raft/pile caps are casted.

For instant leakage stopping, a PU injection foam is recommended. Conrep.i 610 is a low viscosity water reactive polyurethane injection composed of a resin component and a catalyst.To stop leakage and form a permanent elastic membrane,inject Conrep.i 600,a flexible water sealing 2 component polyurethane resin that reacts with water to form a hydrophobic seal. Conrep.i 600 reacts in wet or dry cracks and joints. When Conrep.i 600 comes in contact with water, it reacts into a flexible seal.

Product application • Drill a hole in the concrete at 45 degree angle in order to intersect the crack or the leaking construction joint. • Place the bore packer inside the hole and tighten firmly in order to prevent the resin from escaping. The distance between each packer should not be more than the thickness of the structural member. The injection bore packer is designed with non-return valve in order to prevent resin from escaping during injection. • Injection bore packers should be placed and distant equally. • The injection requires the use of an injection device. Mix the 2 components of Conrep.i 610 and place in the container reserved in the injection machine. • Place the nozzle of injection hose inside the bore packer nipple. • Start injection and continue while the Conrep.i 610 is transformed into foam. • Stop injection when the pressure gauge reaches 75% of its highest value. • Remove the injection hose and shift to next bore packer and restart injecting Conrep.i 610 • When all the bore packers are injected, repeat the same process using Conrep.i 600.

Geotextile.white PET

Gravel 5 cm

A protection is called soft when gravels or pebbles are spread over the horizontal waterproofing membranes to an average thickness of 5 cm. (to be applied only for rooftops lower than 15 m height) An underlay of Geotextile.white PET should precede the spreading of gravels in order to avoid puncturing of the waterproofing membranes placed underneath and separate it from the gravels / ballast.

2-b Hard protection Recommended products

Jointseal.PU + Gun

Fiberglass mesh

A protection is called hard when the waterproofing membrane is covered with tiles. There are two ways to proceed with hard protection: • Loosely laid tiles are concrete tiles of sizes around 40x40cm and 3 to 4 cm thick. They are laid loose over the soft protection described above. • Mortar laid tiles are tiles laid over a bed of cement mortar like weber.col floor (Carromortar) range,eliminating the gravels described in the soft protection while keeping the geotextile as separation and protection layer. • Expansion joint of 2 cm wide should be provided in bays of 3x3 m and filled with Jointseal.PU or Jointseal.PU - MC. N.B. In case of hard protection it is recommended to replace the Primer of the horizontal area with a separation layer made of Fiberglass mesh. Hence, torching of membrane will occur only over the overlaps in order to provide a fully independent system.

Watertank treatment

LARGE HOLES AND DAMAGED CONCRETE In the case of large holes or damaged concrete in old or new water tanks, all damaged areas must be chiseled, cleaned and damped with fresh water. Conrep.331 TX is to be applied in one or two layers depending on the holes. JOINTS TREATMENT All joints between vertical walls and the ground must be treated by creating a groove of 2 cm depth and 2 cm width. The groove is to be cleaned and damped with fresh water, then filled with Waterproof.150 BLC.In order to protect the filled joint, Conrep.331 TX needs to be applied on the 90° corner in a round shape and in an appropriate thickness after roughening the surface.Curing during 3 days is recommended in areas where Conrep.331 TX is applied. WATERPROOFING LAYERS After ensuring that all the above steps have been maintained, the watertank is ready to receive the final product, weber.dry 110 FX, a cementitious waterproofing membrane. Apply the 1st layer of weber.dry 110 FX with sufficient thickness (1kg/m²) with a brush or a roller: • Fix 20 cm width of Fiberglass mesh on all corners, joints and cracks while the waterproofing layer is still wet • When dry, apply the 2nd and 3rd layer of weber.dry 110 FX in proportion of 0.5 - 1 kg/m² • Application should be in two to three crossed layers with a minimum thickness of 2 mm.

Concrete walls or hollow-block walls are not sufficient to ensure a full waterproofing and avoid leakage. A full waterproofing system should be applied before putting the swimming-pool in service.

Constraints

Weak points such as pipes, water inlets and underwater windows are weaknesses in the waterproofing system.

Any concrete stucture has weaknesses such as wall/ slab connection, porous areas,construction joints...

When the pool is empty,the waterproofing mortar is submitted to the pressure from the surrounding soil.

The waterproofing mortar should also be compatible with the coatings used in the pool.

When the pool is full, the waterproofing mortar is under the pressure of the water in the pool.

Conrep 302 HF Highly fluid expansive mortar for bedding

and anchoring

• Expansive • Highly fluid • High early mechanical resistance • Good resistance to sea water • Easy application • Perfect for bedding

APPLICATION METHOD Bedding Thoroughly scab the foundation, clean the area between the foundation and machine base-plate, as well as the anchor holes. Build a solid leak-proof formwork. Saturate the concrete foundation with water for a few hours prior to pouring. Remove all residual water. Pour Conrep.302 HF continuously, in one direction to avoid air pockets (by gravity, loading, pumping, injection). The choice of installation method depends on the grouting thickness and the length of the machine. The grouting thickness must be between 3 and 6 cm for a pure mortar. Larger thickness may be filled by a micro-concrete with the addition of 3/8 aggregates. Once the mortar starts to set, apply on its surface a curing compound or if the configuration and the tightness of the forms allow it, pour 1 to 2 cm of cool water over the surface and leave it there until removal of the forms. Anchoring The hole diameter should be at least equal to the rod plus 30 mm. Depth of holes: 10 to 15 times the diameter of the rod. Clean the areas, place bar in hole and fill the hole with Conrep.302 HF to full capacity. The dimensions of anchoring must not be above 5 cm. For bigger anchoring, it is recommended to use Conrep.302 HF-microconcrete. Grouting and Concrete repair Conrep.302 HF can be used for thicknesses up to 10cm. Apply the mortar evenly on the concrete surface where required. Ideal application temperature is between +5°C and + 35°C. Thickness above 10 cm can be practiced depending on the design of the repair job and level of steel reinforcement. Shoring / Soil nailing Conrep.302 HF can be used for grouting the inclined holes in shoring application. Hole diameter must not exceed 20cm, depth of hole will be determined by the structural engineer.

Ensure all concrete surfaces are hosed down with water as moistures must be present in the capillaries prior to the application of weber.dry crystal. New concrete must be at least three days old before treatment.

APPLICATION METHOD

Before applying weber.dry crystal onto the treated surface, ensure the substrate is moist but not visibly wet. weber.dry crystal can be applied by using a brush or broom with fine bristles. • weber.dry crystal when mixed properly, looks like a flowable paint and is easy to apply. • 2 coats at 0.5 Kg/m² per coat are normally required. The coats are installed in two passes. • After the application of the 1st coat of weber.dry crystal at a rate of 0.5 kg/m², allow it to dry. • When the 1st coat is in tacky condition, the 2nd coat is then ready to be applied. The procedure of application for 2nd coat of weber.dry crystal is the same as the 1st coat except the application should be counter cross wised to the 1st application coat.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

SIZE AND SURFACE FINISH Biflex.PL is supplied in 1 m wide and 10 m length rolls. The surface finish is either sanded or protected with PE film. Biflex.SL has a slated rough surface.

REINFORCEMENT CORE AND COATING MIXTURE Biflex.PL waterproofing membrane is reinforced with 180 grams non woven spunbond polyester reinforcement that gives the membrane dimensional stability and resistance to puncture. It is coated with a specially formulated mixture of SBS modified bitumen which makes the membrane resistant to water, atmospheric agents, and malleable at low temperature while retaining a high softening point. Biflex membranes are resistant to chlorides, sulphates and phosphates found in ground water.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The membrane must first be unrolled and laid down on the area to which it is to be applied. Check the orientation carefully. Adjacent rolls should then be laid, each overlapping the one next to it by 10 cm on the side and 15 cm at the ends. Taking care not to change the orientation of each roll, reverse the process until each has been re-rolled. When laying the roll, the lower surface should be heated with a propane torch, using sweeping left to right movements. This will melt the lower surface of the membrane and allow it to stick to the substrate. Continue this process for each subsequent roll, remembering that the overlaps must be 10 cm for the edges and 15 cm at the ends. When the process is complete, carry out an inspection to ensure total adhesion. When applied in a totally bonded system, a priming coat of Waterproof.prime WB or Waterproof.prime SB should be applied at the rate of 200 – 300 g/m².

This mixture gives the membrane excellent resistance to atmospheric agents and ageing, whilst maintaining shape stability at high temperatures, thus allowing high adhesion strength and making it easy to apply, with consequent saving in time and manpower.

METHOD OF APPLICATION The application of Biplas.PL/SL waterproofing membrane is both easy and quick. Where it is to be laid directly in a one-layer system on concrete, tiles or an existing roofing system, a coat of Waterproof.prime WB or Waterproof.prime SB at the rate of 200-300 g/m² should first be applied. Allow this coating to dry thoroughly. In areas of high humidity we recommend it should be left overnight. As in all other application, the membrane should first be unrolled and positioned correctly on the surface to be treated. Each roll should overlap the adjacent roll by 10 cm. Once the roll has been positioned correctly, the membrane should be rolled up again, taking care not to change its orientation. Using left to right movements, heat the lower surface of the membrane with a propane gas torch. This will cause slight surface melting and adhesion to the substrate. Continue the above method for consecutive rolls remembering overlaps must be 10 cm and end laps 15 cm. Inspection of lap joints must be carried out to ensure total adhesion.

Compatible with almost every waterproofing membrane and coating like: Bituminous, EPDM, TPO, PVC, polyurethane, butyl rubber, epoxy, acrylic, chlorinated rubber, coal tar and many others. • Withstands site abuse and impact from backfilling operations as well as effective protection against construction traffic, concreting and other topping work. • Maintains shape stability at high temperatures and retains flexibility at low temperatures. It is tough, root-proof and non-bio degradable. It is unaffected by permanent immersion in water. • Resistant to salts, chlorides and other chemicals normally found in soils. • Can be used as a recovery board in re-roofing as a fast, light weight alternative to screed and eliminating the need to remove the old roofing regardless of its type. • It comes in a variety of thicknesses from 3 mm to 6 mm. • Semi-flexible, it can be bent to normal contours without cracking while rigid enough to hold as a board on vertical surfaces. • The top surface is covered with either fine sand (SAND) or a thin Polyethylene film (PBS). The bottom surface is covered with a thin easy torched polyethylene film. • High puncture and impact resistance. Pass the chisel test.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

140

Proboard should be installed in butt joints continuously over the waterproofing material staggering the joints whenever possible. Cut the Proboard with roofer’s knife as required to obtain complete coverage and neat overall finish. On horizontal surfaces, Proboard can be placed loose directly on the waterproofing membrane or coating while spot bonding with hot and cold adhesive on the edges to avoid slippage. On vertical surfaces, the Proboard can be fixed in two ways: Cold adhesion by the means of spot bonding with hot and cold adhesive. Heated application by slightly burning the underside of the board away from the surface and quickly pressing it. A temporary support might be necessary until the backfilling starts. During backfilling, care must be taken to ensure the board is not dragged down.


Waterproof∙132 WB

Water based surface water repellent

PRODUCT BENEFITS

COMPOSITION

SCOPE OF USE

Waterproof.132 WB is a ready-to-use surface waterproofer made of siliconate, intended to leave a colorless, hydrophobic coat on inorganic construction materials. Once applied, Waterproof.132 WB is absorbed by capillary action and is turned into a hydrophobic siloxane by reacting with carbonic gas. The product has strong penetration into the material because of low molecular weight. It can be used on moist materials, and its beading effect appears instantly. Waterproof.132 WB can also be used to help in preventing mould and fungus formation.

• Cementitious plaster or renders • All types of concrete • Absorbing tiles or natural stones (always test before use) • Bricks and roofing tiles

PACKAGING 5 liters and 25 liters.

CHARACTERISTICS Transparent or whitish liquid Appearance Density at 20°C Around 1

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION The surface to be treated must be sound, free from powder residues and dust, and cracks must be repaired. Concrete and cement based plasters must be aged at least 28 days before Waterproof.132 WB application.

APPLICATION METHOD By brushing, immersion or spraying. In the latter case,the nozzle must be held near the surface to facilitate penetration. The surface needs to be treated for saturation twice; the second layer must be applied before the first layer is totally dry (wet on wet). Best results are reached with a dry, absorbent surface.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

MIXING Jointseal.PS 1000 GG/PG • Mix and use one complete unit at a time - do not subdivide • Jointseal.PS 1000 GG/PG is supplied in two part, in separate tins with the curing agent contained in a smaller tube. • Mix for 5 - 10 minutes using a paddle fitted to a 500 RPM electric drill, moving the paddle completely through the mass of the material. The sides and base of the container should be periodically scraped down with a palette knife to ensure all of the curing agent is completely blended with the base compound. • Failure to completely disperse curing agent throughout the base compound will result in uncured sealant. Jointseal.PS 1000 GG/PG should be used immediately once mixed.

APPLICATION • Jointseal.PS 1000 GG/PG is designed to be applied using a sealant gun, but can be applied by trowel if required. • Sealant guns are fitted with conical nozzles which can be cut to suit the joint width. • The sealant should be gunned into the joint using an even trigger pressure, cleaning the nozzle occasionally to avoid contamination. Deep joints should be filled in two or more runs, to prevent air entrapment. • Once the sealant has been applied, a small timber spatula, soaked in soapy water, should be used to compact the sealant into the joints and to tool off to achieve a smooth polished finish. Any masking tape which has been applied should be removed before the sealant cure. • Mixing and application equipment should be cleaned immediately using a tool cleaner, and using rubber gloves to prevent tool cleaner coming into contact with the skin.
