Product Description

BETEC 110, 140, 180

Cement-bound grouting materials
The BETEC material series 100 consists of cement-bound, non-shrinking grouting material, which show a controllable increase of volume. The BETEC grouting materials are used for statically as well as for dynamically highly-stressed compound units. The series BETEC 100 is water tight The BETEC grouting materials are free from chlorides, high-alumina cements and resistant to frost and gritting materials. Depending on the respective thickness of grout, the following grain sizes are available (the leading thickness of grout is the smallest distance of two areas): BETEC 110 grain size 0-1 mm thickness of grout 10-20 mm BETEC 140 grain size 0-4 mm thickness of grout 15-60 mm BETEC 180 grain size 0-8 mm thickness of grout 50-100 mm If requested, these products are available also with steel fibers (SF) respectively with highgrade steel fibers (SF). BETEC 110 SF resp. BETEC 110 ESF BETEC 140 SF resp. BETEC 140 ESF (see data sheet no. 1.04) BETEC 180 SF resp. BETEC 180 ESF (see data sheet no. 1.04) The BETEC grouting materials are used in the field of constructive civil engineering for the undergrouting and grouting of compound units. The main fields of application are as follows: undergrouting of steel constructions grouting of machines grouting of bridge beds grouting of rails and slabs anchor grouting of machines and threaded rods grouting of prefabricated compound units grouting of hole footings grouting in the underwater sector The mineral concrete foundation has to be removed from any dirt, grease, and all particles or layers which could weaken the bonding strength until the core concrete is exposed. The prepared foundation has to be sufficiently non-slippery for the bonding layer, the capillaries must be open. The pre-watering of the concrete surface has to be executed until it is saturated, however at least 4 hours. Apply when the foundation surface of the concrete appears only a little wet; any stagnant water caused by the pre-watering of the concrete foundation has to be removed. The surface of the concrete foundation has to be frost-free. The tensile strength of the concrete foundation surface must be on the average 1,5 N/mm. The BETEC grouting materials are stirred in a forced mixer. A lump-free, homogeneous mixture is achieved by adding 4/5 of the required quantity of water into the mixer. After adding the respectively necessary quantity of powder and having mixed for two minutes, the remaining quantity of water has to be added. The mixing-time depends on the mixer; however, 4 minutes can be considered the minimum. The thus mixed and homogeneously stirred material of the BETEC grouting material is poured into the respective cavity. The undergrouting regularly is effected by means of a previously constructed sheeting which has to be tight and not sucking. If the respective cavity is not quadratic, the BETEC grouting mortar has to be poured in continuously through the longer side. Due to the good flowability, any further rodding will not be necessary. A nonporous grouting is achieved by a sufficient number of extract ventilation holes or slots, provided during the construction. After being used, the tools must thoroughly be cleaned with water.

After-treatment

The required after-treatment of the free grouting flanks is effected, as with all hydraulically setting cement mortars, by means of jute bags and plastic foils lying above the jute bags. The after-treatment should last at least 5 days. It should take place as soon as possible, however, at the latest when the mortar surface starts to become rigid. In each case the lateral grouting overhang should be hold as small as possible (approx. 20-50 mm). As an alternative to the traditional after-treatment methods, it is possible to use a protection material against evaporation. The BETEC grouting materials correspond to the specifications and requirements of the "Data Sheet for the application, authorization and tests of factory-mixed grouting materials" (edition September 1990). The BETEC grouting materials are representatively surveyed, the quality is continuously assured by the Materialprfungsamt of North-Rhine Westphalia. We also have test certificates about the use of these BETEC materials in the underwater sector which can be consulted. Results of tensile tests with anchors can also be consulted. EG Safety data sheet has to be followed.
