MIXNG DESIGN AND PROCETURES:
Fibermesh ® 150-e3 micro-reiforcement is a mechanical, not chemical, process. The addition of Fibermesh® 150-e3 graded monofilament fibres do not require any additional water nor other mix design changes at normal rates. Fibermesh® 150-e3 can be added to the mixer before, during or after batching the other conctete materials. After the additioan of the fibres, the concrete shoud be mixed for sufficient time (minumum of 5 minutes, at full mixing speed) to ensure uniform distribution of fibres throughout the concrete.
PLACING:
Fibermesh® 150-e3 micro-fibre reinforced concrete can be pumped, sprayed or placed using conventional equiptment. Hand or vibratory screeds and laser screeds can be used with Fibermesh® 150-e3 micro-reinforced concrete.
FINISHING:
Fibermesh® 150-e3 micro-fibre reinforced concrete can be finished by any finishing technique. Exposed aggregate, broomed and tined surfaces are no problem.
DOSAGE RATE:
The recommended dosage rate for Fibermesh® 150-e3 fibre, to achieve effective performance, is 0.9 kg per cubic meter. For speciality performance please contact your local Propex Concrete Systems representative for recommendations regarding increases application rates.
