1 CONCRETE REPAIR AND SHOTCRETE PRODUCTS

2 CONCRETE REPAIR AND SHOTCRETE PRODUCTS WHAT IS IT? The BluCem Range of spray and trowel applied mortars are designed for ground support and reinstatement of concrete structures in difficult application and service environments. 2 Bluey Technologies

3 PRODUCT INFORMATION BluCem HB Range comprises of one component powder blends containing either Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) or calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) blends which require only the addition of water to form spray or trowel applied mortars. WHERE DO WE USE BLUCEM HB RANGE? Our products in this range are suitable for both old and new structures with special blends providing ultra low permeability and resistance in environments containing acid gasses, chloride ions or aggressive chemicals. Marine environments and tidal zones. WHY BLUCEM HB RANGE? Fast setting and rapid strength gain. Sprayable, low rebound, low dust emissions. Polymer modified to provide extremely low permeability. Formulations containing CSA cements provide very low shrinkage with high chloride and sulphate resistance. BluCem HB Range 3

4 PRODUCT APPLICATIONS The BluCem HB range has been successfully used on projects including: Coal Loading Wharves Sea Walls Building Facades & Structures Marine Piles Tunnel Linings Bridge Structures Sewer Infrastructure Retaining Walls LNG & Mining Infrastructure 4 Bluey Technologies

5 PRODUCT FEATURES & BENEFITS KEY FEATURES KEY BENEFITS Carefully graded aggregates enhance abrasion resistance and reduce rebound. CSA based systems are resistant in marine environments Wet mix uses Silica fume, a pozzolan enhancing cohesion, resistance to bleed and aids overhead spraying. CSA based systems provide very rapid strength gain High builds possible in one pass. OPC BASED CSA BASED BluCem HB30 5 hours work time and low density for precise trowel finishing BluCem HB50 5MPa in 2 Hours for detailed trowel work in tidal zones BluCem HB55 150mm spray build for cost effective fast application. BluCem HB60 25MPa in 2 hours for rapid structural support 150mm spray build BluCem HB Range 5

6 PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Bluey recognised that there was a need in the industry for a system of highly advanced shotcrete products but also a range which was practical and easy to manage on site. PERFORMANCE & ADAPTABILITY Bluey have put together a simple but effective range of spray and trowelled cementitious mortars which will cover a wide range of applications. The range has been established to cover both architectural finishes and highly aggressive chemical environments. The mortars are all comprised of carefully selected aggregates to suit the application including light weight fillers for overhead work or alternatively specially graded aggregates for high build wall applications. The BluCem range of spray and trowel applied mortars are designed for ground support and reinstatement of concrete structures in difficult application and service environments. Our products in this range are suitable for both old and new structures with special blends providing ultra low permeability and resistance in environments containing acid gasses, chloride ions or aggressive chemicals. 6 Bluey Technologies

9 ONSITE INSTALLATION CONCRETE PREPARATION All defective host substrate must be removed prior to application. Defective material includes cracked or structurally weakened surfaces and also chloride contaminated and carbonated concrete. A concrete corrosion expert must be consulted for critical projects or structural applications. Host concrete must be roughened and aggregate exposed to ensure good bond. High pressure water blasting or mechanical chipping of the surface is recommended for this purpose. All surfaces must be free of dust, oils and surface contaminants. This may require steam cleaning or high pressure water blasting if site conditions permit. A perimeter edge of at least 10mm depth must be provided around the area for application. Priming using BluCem AP10 is recommended. Priming by saturation of the surface using water prior to application is also acceptable. Priming with epoxy primers or other products which prevent vapour transmission is not recommended. STEEL PREPARATION Following removal of all defective concrete, any partially exposed reinforcing bars shall be fully exposed to a depth of 20mm behind the bar. If the bar has lost more than 20% of its original diameter then it should be replaced and the Structural Engineer must be consulted. Where the original reinforcement is retained it must be cleaned to a standard surface purity of Sa 2.5 for chloride contaminated concrete and Sa 2.0 for carbonated concrete. This is best achieved by wet blasting or abrasive blasting. If chloride contamination is present then high pressure wet blasting is the only acceptable method of cleaning. Priming of reinforcement is generally not required. If the steel will be exposed to the atmosphere for several days after cleaning then an acceptable form of priming would be to mix BluCem HB mortar into a slurry using BluCem AP10 and apply a cement rich coating to the steel surface. MIXING AND APPLICATION For wet applications, add BluCem HB mortar to potable water in a clean vessel using a high shear mechanical mixer for at least three minutes. Do not mix more material than can be placed in 15 minutes. Add enough water to achieve the desired consistency within the water ratio limits specified in this data sheet. For dry applications, empty the dry powder directly into the hopper and adjust water and air at the nozzle for suitable consistency. Follow the product data sheet for maximum application thickness guidelines. BluCem HB Range 9

10 ONSITE TESTING ONSITE TESTING Bluey s Engineers specialise in on site techniques to ensure that the client, its designers and applicators receive full support during the entire material selection, application and testing process. Bluey is able to offer training andquality inspections on site either directly or through third party trained specialists accredited by Bluey. For all of our products we are also able to recommend competent applicators who have experience in applying our products. FOR BLUCEM HB RANGE, BLUEY RECOMMEND THE FOLLOWING MINIMUM TESTING REGIME: Concrete evaluation by a Structural Engineer prior to commencement Concrete testing for carbonation and chloride penetration Adhesion testing to ensure adequate surface preparation Compressive tests of site mixed repair mortar It is important that all detailed drawings are completed and evaluated by a competent professional prior to commencement. The applicator is also required to develop specific work methods and inspection procedures for approval by Bluey prior to commencement. The obligation is on the purchaser of the products to engage Bluey into the onsite processes and utilise our services to ensure a high quality and conforming application. 10 Bluey Technologies
