4 SUBSTRATE REQUIREMENTS

PULL OFF AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH 4.1

The concrete substrate must be sound and of sufficient compressive strength (minimum 25 N/mm2) with a

minimum pull off strength of 1.5 N/mm2.

The substrate must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings and surface

treatments, etc.

If in doubt, apply a test area first.

Measuring of the Pull-off strength > 1.5 N/mm2

E.g. Pull-off tester from Freundl.

After the test, the drill holes must be filled by using either:-

A polymer-modified cement mortar (PCC I) e.g. SikaTop® for a thickness of 1.0 - 10 cm

Or:-

A reactive resin mortar (PC) e.g. a Sikafloor® resin, for a thickness of 0.8 - 2.0 cm

MOISTURE CONTENT 4.2

Prior to application, confirm substrate moisture content, relative humidity

(r.h.) and dew point.

If substrate is > 4% pbw moisture content, Sikafloor® EpoCem® may be

applied as a temporary moisture barrier (T.M.B.) system.

5 SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

CONCRETE SUBSTRATES 5.1

Vacuum shot blasting

Concrete substrates must be prepared mechanically using

abrasive blast cleaning or scarifying equipment to remove

cement laitance and achieve a profiled, open textured,

surface.

High spots must be removed e.g. by grinding.

Cleaning of the surface

All dust, loose and friable material must be completely

removed from all surfaces before application of the product,

preferably by brush and vacuum.

Clean substrate

The surface must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants,

e.g. dirt, oils, grease, coatings and surface treatments, etc.

Substrate defects

Substrate defects, such as cracks, blow holes and voids must

be repaired using appropriate products from the SikaTop®,

Sika® MonoTop®, Sikafloor®, Sikadur® or Sikagard® range.

e.g. Sikafloor®-161 as a levelling mortar / screed

The selected method of preparation will depend on the surface condition, environmental constraints and

availability of services. The method may be selected on the basis of trial areas, approved by the Contract

Administrator.

CPS-3 Light Shot Blast

CPS-4 Light Scarification

CSP-5: Medium shot blast

CONCRETE SURFACE PROFILE 5.2

The International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI) has defined nine different guidelines for proper surface preparation and has developed profile replica blocks to give a visual point of reference for the user. The nine profile replicas of the CSP standards can be obtained from ICRI. Each profile carries a CSP number ranging from a base line of 1 (nearly flat) through 9 (very rough). Sika’s Recommendation: Concrete has to be prepared to achieve a laitance‐free and contaminant‐free, open textured surface by shot blasting or equivalent mechanical means (CSP‐3 to CSP‐5 as per ICRI guidelines).

APPLICATION OF SIKAFLOOR®-161 / SIKA® CONCRETE PRIMER 6.2

Make sure, that all substrate requirements are met, such as temperature, moisture

content of the prepared substrate etc.

Apply Sikafloor®-161 only if the moisture content is below 4%, (test method: Sika-

Tramex, or CM-measurement or Oven-dry-method; no rising moisture according to

ASTM (Polyethylene-sheet)).

If the moisture content is above 4%, apply Sikafloor® EpoCem® system as a T.M.B. –

please refer to the PDS).

Apply the mixed material by brush, roller or squeegee, taking care to ensure good

wetting of the substrate and work well into the substrate but avoiding puddles on the

surface. Work within the pot life of the material (~ 15 minutes at 30°C).

On vertical surfaces the primer must be mixed with 1.5 – 2% pbw of Extender T.

Clean all tools and application equipment with Thinner C immediately after use.

Hardened / cured material can only be removed mechanically.

BROADCASTING WITH SIKADUR®-507 6.3

Ensure even coverage blinding of the wet primer, without any bald spots.

Use the Consumption as given in the System Build up above

The quartz sand must be firmly bound (grain and grain) in the primer and excess material must be removed after

the curing of the primer. Remove any excess or loose sand from the surface when cured.

This ideally is done by sweeping and vacuuming.

7 APPLICATION OF SIKALASTIC®-841 ST

STIRRING OF THE DRUMS 7.1

The resin blend Part B of the product is the pigmented side. The pigment will have the tendency to settle down

over time. Therefore prior to mixing of Part A and Part B, thoroughly stir Part B resin until a homogenous mixture

and colour is obtained. If the pigment has settled and you do not properly stir the Part B resin side, then you will

mix off-ratio. This can cause a not proper cured film, colour variances, blistering, foaming, sticky coating surface

and poor coating performance.

Isocyanate Amine

The resin blend Part B (Amine) of the product is the pigmented side

The pigment of Part B will have the tendency to settle down over time.
