Batimix Concrete 520

High performance self-consolidating concrete

Description

BATIMIX Concrete 520 is a pre-packed self-consolidating concrete repair material. It has high flowability and moderate viscosity, which are required to ensure homogenous deformation. It is made of Portland cement Type I, silica fume, fillers, carefully-graded fine and coarse aggregates, and selected plasticizing, viscosity-enhancing, and shrinkage-compensating agents. Used for repairing cracks, holes, and other structural flaws, this pre-packaged mixture ensures strong adhesion, proper curing, and durability, simplifying the process of restoring existing concrete structures such as pavements, floors, bridges, and facades. It offers effective bonding with the original concrete, strength to withstand loads and environmental conditions, and a consistent finish, making it a versatile solution for both minor and major repairs while minimizing construction disruptions.

Main Purpose

BATIMIX Concrete 520 flows under its own weight. It requires no vibration during the casting process. It is used for partial and full-depth repair and rehabilitation of beams, columns, slabs, parking structures, garages, bridge decks, reservoirs, and other concrete structures.BATIMIX Concrete 520 is particularly recommended for use in areas difficult to access, complex architectural shapes, and/or a congested degree of reinforcing bars.

Features

BATIMIX Concrete 520 has the following characteristics:

• Similar properties to conventional concrete, thus ensuring excellent compatibility with parent concrete substrate
• Simplification of the concrete placement as no vibration is required
• Increase of production efficiency and reduction of labors at the job-site
• Minimum bleeding and segregation, despite the high flowability
• Improved dimensional compatibility (shrinkage, expansion, and creep)
• High degree of adhesion/bond to the repaired structure
• Low water absorption, yet increased water vapor transmission
• Improved durability with a high quality finished texture
