Renderoc HB40 - PFP Systems

1 Renderoc hb40 : 8/2003 Renderoc hb40 High performance medium-weight concretereinstatement mortarUsesRenderoc hb40 exhibits a series of performancecharacteristics designed to achieve maximum compatibilitywith concrete with a compressive strength greater than30 the reinstatement of large areas of reinforced concretewhere low permeability characteristics are required and wherehigher compressive strength is an important hb40 has been engineered for the repair of columnsand beams but, because of its relatively low fresh wet density,is also suitable for soffits and other overhead repair work. The mortar can also be used for small, localised patch compatibility with lower strength concrete is required,but low permeability and high-build characteristics areimportant, Renderoc HB25 should be note: this mortar is approved foruse with Norcure realkalisation.

2 When usingit in conjunction with this method, theconcrete bonding primer should be anOPC:water slurry. Polymer bonding agentsshould not be used. No steel primer shouldbe applied. Refer to your local Parchemsales office for further Maximum compatibility with concrete of compressivestrength greater than 30 MPa High-build applications possible while maintaininghigher compressive strengths - fewer cold joints Frequently obviates the need for formwork Polymer-modification provides extremely lowpermeability to water, carbon dioxide and chlorides Exceptional system of shrinkage compensationprovides long-term dimensional stability Can be applied quickly and efficiently by wet spraying One component, pre-bagged to overcome site-batchedvariations Contains no chloride admixtures Suitable for internal and external applicationsStandards complianceRenderoc hb40 has been tested and approved inaccordance with the Hong Kong Housing AuthoritySpecification TM1 to TM8 (1990) and ASTM C596-89(modified 23 C, RH50%).

3 DescriptionRenderoc hb40 concrete reinstatement mortar is suppliedas a ready to use blend of dry powders which requires onlythe site addition of clean water to produce a highlyconsistent, medium-weight repair mortar. It is based onPortland cements, graded aggregates, lightweight fillersand chemical additives which provide a mortar with goodhandling characteristics while minimising water low water requirement ensures good strength gain andlong-term supportParchem offers a comprehensive range of highperformance, high quality construction products. Inaddition, Parchem offers a technical support package tospecifiers, end-users and contractors, as well as on-sitetechnical criteriaRenderoc hb40 exhibits a series of performancecharacteristics designed to achieve maximum compatibilitywith concrete with a compressive strength greater than30 hb40 has been engineered for the repair ofcolumns and beams, but, because of its relatively low freshwet density, can readily be used for vertical and overheadrepair work.

4 It can be applied in sections up to 40 mmthickness in vertical locations and up to 30 mm thickness inoverhead locations in a single application and without theuse of formwork. Thicker sections can be achieved by theuse of formwork or can be built up in layers. Deep pocketscan sometimes be filled in a single application dependenton the configuration of the pocket and the volume ofexposed reinforcing can be dramatically increased by wet achievable thicknesses are 70 to 110 mm verticallyand 60 to 85 mm overhead, although this will depend onsubstrate profiles and the distribution of steelreinforcement.

The effectiveness of decontamination shouldthen be assessed by a pull-off fully any corroded steel in the repair area andremove all loose scale and corrosion deposits.

7 Steelshould be cleaned to a bright condition paying particularattention to the back of exposed steel bars. Abrasive-blasting is recommended for this corrosion has occurred due to the presence ofchlorides, the steel should be high-pressure washed withclean water immediately after abrasive-blasting to removecorrosion products from pits and imperfections within steel primingApply one full coat of Nitoprime Zincrich and allow to drybefore continuing. If any doubt exists about havingachieved an unbroken coating, a second applicationshould be made and, again, allowed to dry primingThe substrate should be thoroughly soaked with cleanwater and any excess removed prior to applying one coatof Nitobond HAR* primer and scrubbing it well into thesurface. Renderoc hb40 can be applied as soon as theprimer becomes tacky.

8 If the Nitobond HAR is too wet,overhead and vertical build up of the Renderoc HB40mortar may be exceptional circumstances, where a substrate/repairbarrier is required or where the substrate is wet or likely toremain permanently damp, Nitobond EP* bonding aidshould be used. Contact your local Parchem sales office forfurther : Nitobond HAR primer should not be used whenspraying Renderoc should be taken to ensure that Renderoc hb40 isthoroughly mixed. A forced-action mixer is essential. Mixingin a suitably sized drum using an approved spiral paddle ina slow speed (400/500 rpm) heavy-duty drill is acceptablefor the occasional one-bag mix. Free-fall mixers must notbe used. Mixing of part bags should never be normal applications, place to litres of drinkingquality water into the mixer and, with the machine inoperation, add one full 20 kg bag of Renderoc hb40 andmix for 3 to 5 minutes until fully homogeneous.
