Description
USES
AVCEM EGA can be used for Grouting in
•Pre-stressed cable ducts.
• Rock and soil anchoring.
• Bearing plates.
• Pre-placed aggregates.
• Tunnel lining
• In underground structure, basement tunnel, lift-wells, dams, water reservoir and other water retaining structure.
ADVANTAGES
• Improved fluidity.
• Increased cohesion.
• Volume expansion in the wet state to develop non- shrink property
• Chloride free- does not attack reinforcement. or pre-stress cables.
APPLICATION
The recommended dosage range is 225 grams per 50 kgs bag of Cement. It is advisable to achieve optimum economical dosages do trial. Add directly to the dry cement then add water into the mixer and mix at least for 3 minutes. Sand may be added if required.
For pre-stressed concrete work, where mechanical batching is carried out, a mixing time of 4 minutes with a w/c ratio of 0.36-0.40 has been found to give the best result. The most effective mixing sequence has proven to be water, cement and finally the admixture.
