SELF-COMPACTIBLE CONCRETE
This concrete
is the latest technological development in the industry.
It has two main characteristics: a very high fluidity and
cohesion among the cement paste and its aggregates, allowing
it to flow without segregating or reducing or eliminating
the consolidation and vibrating of concrete.
● We recommend using it on hard
to reach setting for concrete.
● Specially useful on columns
and ties with a high content of reinforcement steel.
● Excellent for pre-cast and
pre-stressed pieces in which the finishing have to be of a
superior quality.
● Its high level of fluidity
allows for faster setting.
● Specially useful in the
setting where the quantity of reinforcement steel make it
difficult for the concrete and the vibrators to reach.
● Its capacity for self-compactibility
produce a more dense concrete with a lower permeability.
● The resistance to minimum
compression is of 250 Kg/cm²
● Inflexion resistance ranges
from 35 to 50 Kg/cm²
● The maximum aggregate size
can be of 20 or 40 mm.
● The shrinkage on this
concrete ranges from 6 to 12 cm.
● Meets the requirements
established in Norms NMX-C-155 and NMX-C-403 of the
Complementary Technical Norms of the
G.D.F.
