Cortec's CorrVerter MCI Rust Primer
When it comes to tackling reinforcement surface prep and ongoing protection, CorrVerter MCI Rust Primer provides performance and application advantages to mitigate rebar corrosion. Without the need for abrasive, water blasting, and intensive labor, CorrVerter MCI, which is recommended for application to rusty or poorly prepared steel surfaces where further corrosion protection is required and good surface preparation is difficult to achieve. CorrVerter MCI is a unique formulation of chelating agents combined with a high solids waterborne latex with extremely low water vapor permeability. This fast-drying, single-component primer converts surface rust into a hydrophobic passive layer and offers excellent protection against re-rusting of metal surfaces.
CorrVerter MCI Primer offers engineers, owners, contractors, DOTs, and government agencies a convenient, low-labor option when performing repairs on heavily corroded rebar and other metal surfaces.

Simpson Strong Tie's RCA-C Rigid Connector Angle
Simpson Strong-Tie's RCA-C rigid connector angle is an ideal solution for attaching cold-formed steel (CFS) stud framing to concrete supports. • 2 in. by 2 in. legs for plenty of room to make attachments to structure and stud framing • Multiple screw pattern options for different load rating options on stud framing • Prepunched holes for attachment of screws to stud framing and concrete • A range of load applications—the connector can be used either to form a heavy-duty shear and tension connector or to form a light-duty moment connection Designed to save installers time and reduce the cost of drilling connector holes at the jobsite, the RCA-C provides the most anchor options available, including holes for a 1/2-in. diameter anchor screw or bolt, or for two 1/4-in. diameter concrete screws positioned to allow a variety of fastening options.

MAXIMO Crane-Set Wall Forming System
The MAXIMO crane-set wall system with one-sided tie installation greatly accelerates formwork operations and eliminates the need of spacer tubes and cones. The tie points on all panel sizes are centrically arranged, saving 40% of ties in comparison to traditional formwork panels. Every tie hole is used and edge ties are not required, resulting in a visually appealing and clean concrete surface. MAXIMO is particularly beneficial in small access areas due to the single-sided technology.
