The surface of the substrate should be thoroughly cleaned to remove all traces of dust, oil, paint, curing compounds, grease, corrosion deposits, algae or any unsound material which might affect subsequent bond between Renderoc FC and the substrate. 1.2. Oil and grease deposits are best removed by steam cleaning, detergent scrubbing or the use of @ proprietary degreaser. The effectiveness of decontamination should be assessed by a pull-off test. 1.3 The substrate should further be ‘roughened’ to remove excess laitence, to expose pinholes & blowholes and to provide a mechanical key for subsequent application of Renderac FC, This is most effectively achieved by the use of proprietary blast media, such that the fire aggregate is exposed but not polished. 1.4 Where preparation techniques result in voids of greater than 3 mm depth, it will be necessary to use other Renderoc products to make local repairs before overcoating with Renderoc FC. Such areas, once repaired, will not require additional preparation prior to the application of Renderoc FC. 1.5 Immediately prior to application of Renderoc FC, the prepared substrate should be blown clean with oil-free compressed air. 2.0. Substrate priming 2.1 All prepared areas should be thoroughly soaked with clean, potable water immediately prior to the application of Renderoc FC, such that the substrate is "saturated surface dry". 2.2 Since Renderoc FC is only a surface skim coat, reinforcing steel should not be exposed and will not therefore need priming. 3.0 Mixing Care should be taken to ensure that Renderoc FC is thoroughly mixed. In all cases the powder should be added to the water and mixed strictly in accordance with appropriate procedure. 3.1 Mixit a) Small quantities - up to 5 kg - may be mixed manually. 1g - small quantities b) The mixing ratio, by volume, should be 3 parts Renderoc FC to 1 part water. ©) For the single volume water component select a conveniently sized measuring container and fill to the top. Add the measured volume of potable water to the mixing vessel. Page 2 ofd) 32 4.0 44 42 43 5.0 BA 52 6.0 64 wl aS. For each of 3 volumes of Renderoc FC, loose-fill the measuring container to excess with Renderoc FC, then strike off level with the top of the measuring container. ‘Add the 3 volumes of powder to the water and mix vigorously for at least 3 minutes, until homogenous. Mixing - large volumes a) For larger volumes of material it will be necessary to mix using - a proprietary forced action mixer, or - slow speed drill (400/500 rpm) + Fosroc MR4 mortar paddle attachment. b) For each bag of Renderoc FC to be mixed, measure out and place 2.8 to 3.0 litres of cool, potable water into the mixer (water quantity may vary slightly according to ambient temperature and desired consistency of mix). ©) Always add the powder to the water. With the mixer in operation add one full bag of Renderoc FC, or multiples thereof, and mix continuously for 5 minutes until fully homogenous. 4) Enhanced performance properties can be gained by adding up to 0.5 litres of Ntobond SBR (per full bag of Renderoc FC) in addition to the normal gauging water, until the desired consistency is achieved. Application Do not proceed with the application when rainfall is imminent, unless in a sheltered or protected position. Apply the fully mixed Renderoc FC to the prepared substrate, up to 3 mm thickness, by steel trowel. It should be applied with the minimum of working, and be allowed to partly set before finally trowelling to a smooth finish. ‘Thickness of application should be in accordance with that laid down in the ‘Application criteria’ section of the current product data sheet. Ifa very smooth finish is required, a small amount of water may be flicked onto the surface of the Renderoc FC, with a paint brush, prior to final trowelling. Finishing Renderoc FC is finished by striking off with a straight edge and closing with a steel or plastic float. Note that water can be drawn to the surface if ‘overworking with the float occurs, and an ty finish may result. Damp sponges or plastic floats may be used to achieve a desired surface texture, but care should again be taken not to overwork the surface. Curing Curing of Renderoc FC is not generally required. However, under extreme drying conditions - high temperatures, drying winds, use Nitobond AR. Page 3 of 4a 7.1 All equipment should be washed with clean water immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed by mechanical means. 7.0 Cleaning This method statement is offered by Fosroc as a ‘standard proposal’ for the application of Renderoc FC. It remains the responsibility of the Customer to determine the correct method for any given application.

SEER) 4.0 Surface preparation Application - points of note Attention to full and proper preparation of the substrate is essential for complete repair adhesion. 1.1 Mark out affected area, then cut back edge of repair to a minimum depth of 10 mm. 1.2. Break out the repair area to remove all contaminated or damaged concrete to a minimum depth of 10 mm, up to the pre-cut edge of the repair. 1.3 Fully expose any corroded reinforcement in the repair area and continue until uncorroded stee! is reached. It may be necessary to break out the concrete beyond the original repair area in order to achieve this. 1.4 Oil and grease deposits are best removed by steam cleaning, detergent scrubbing or the use of a proprietary degreaser. The effectiveness of decontamination should be assessed by a pull-off test. 1.5 Fully clean the concrete and steel surfaces to remove laitence, the by-products of corrosion and other contaminants. This is most effectively achieved by proprietary blast media; with particular attention required to both the rear face of the bars and the edge of the repair. The steel bars should be cleaned to uniform bright condition; and the edge of the repair should be ‘roughened’ to provide a good mechanical key at the substrate interface. 4.6 Chloride Induced corrosion will further require high pressure washing with clean water after blasting to ensure complete removal of the corrosive elements. 2.0 Reinforcement priming 2.1. Exposed steel reinforcement should be securely held in place to avold movement during application, as this will affect the compaction and bond of the material. 2.2 Apply one full, unbroken coat of Nitoprime Zincrich and allow drying before continuing. If unsure about continuity of the coating, apply a second coat and allow drying. 3.0 Substrate priming - water (standard repairs) 3.1 Priming with water should take place after erection of the formwork. 3.2. Several hours prior to placing the Renderoc LA, the prepared concrete substrates should be saturated, by filing the formwork with clean water. Immediately prior to application of Renderoc LA, any excess water should be removed via the drainage outlet, leaving the substrate “saturated surface dry’ Page 2 of 44.0 44 42 43 44 45 46 Ar 48 5.0 5A 52 53 54 55 6.0 61 62 Substrate priming - Nitobond EP (contaminated concrete) This should be completed before erection of the formwork, and application of Nitoprime Zinerich, Care should be taken to ensure that Nitobond EP is thoroughly mixed. The *hardener’ and “base' components should be stirred separately before mixing to disperse any settlement. The entire contents of the ‘hardener’ tin should then be poured into the "base' tin and the two materials thoroughly mixed using a suitable slow-speed drill and mixing paddle for 2 minutes until a fully uniform colour is obtained. ‘The sides of the tin should then be scraped and mixing should continue for a further 2 minutes. Nitobond EP should be applied as soon as the mixing process has been completed. ‘An unbroken coating of primer must be achieved - apply two coats. Each coat should be well ‘scrubbed’ into the prepared substrate, the first coat being allowed to gel before application of the second coat. ‘The primed substrate should then be left for one hour before proceeding with further application of the repair material Formwork. Formwork should be constructed such that the unrestrained surface area of the repair is minimised. The formwork should be rigid and tight to the substrate to prevent grout loss. Use of silicone sealant, or similar, is also advised around the edge of the formwork. The internal faces of the formwork should be sealed, using Reebol release agent, to ensure that water is not absorbed from the repair material by the formwork. The formwork should include suitable drainage outlets for pre-soaking and, when fling the repair ‘bottom up’ (e.g. soffit repairs), should further include provision for air-venting to release trapped air as pouring proceeds. There must be suitable access points to pour or pump the mixed material in place, Mixing It is essential that Renderoc LA is thoroughly mixed and that powder is always added to the water. Measure out 3.38 litres per 25kg bag, of cool potable water, into the mixing apparatus. (It is suggested that the temperature of the water should not exceed 20°C, so that the temperature of the final mixed material is not greater than 30°C).

The material should be placed within 30 minutes of mixing, in order to gain the full benefits of fluidity and expansion, which wil fll ll the repair voids. Placement should be a continuous process, to avoid the formation of a ‘cold joint’. If placing by pump, the pipeline should be ‘grouted’ with a rich cement slurty or mortar, discharging such grout as waste. ( Pumping of the mixed material should follow immediately after grouting has been carried out. Curing Formwork should be left in place until the cured Renderoc LA has reached a self-supporting, ‘compressive strength of 10 Nimm®, or as otherwise advised by the Engineer. Immediately after the formwork has been struck, all exposed faces of the repair should be thoroughly soaked with clean water to remove residual traces of the shutter release agent. The repair should then be sprayed with Rendercure. ‘At ambient temperatures above 30°C supplementary curing in the form of polythene sheeting, taped down at the edges, must be used. Cleaning Renderoc LA should be removed from tools, equipment and mixers with clean water ( immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed by mechanical means.

Break out the repair area to remove all contaminated or damaged conerete to a minimum depth of 10 mm, up to the pre-cut perimeter of the repair. Fully expose any corroded reinforoement in the repair area and continue until non corroding ‘steel is reached - it may be necessary to break out the concrete beyond the original repair area in order to achieve this. Ensure that a clear gap of at least 20 mm is created behind the rear face of the steel reinforcement, such that @ gloved hand can comfortably reach behind the bars, Oil and grease deposits are best removed by steam cleaning, detergent scrubbing or the use of @ propristary degreaser. The effectiveness of decontamination should be assessed by a pulloff test Fully clean the concrete and steel! surfaces to remove laitence, the by-products of corrosion and other contaminants. This is most effectively achieved by the use of proprietary blast mediz with particular attention required to both the rear face of the bars and the edge of the repair. ‘The steel bars should be cleaned to a uniform bright condition; and the saw cut edge of the repair should be ‘roughened’ to provide a good mechanical key et the substrate interface. Chloride induced corrosion will further require high pressure washing with clean water, after blasting, to ensure complete removal of the corrosive elements, Reinforcement priming Exposed steel reinforcement, including any replacement reinforcement, should be securely held in place to avoid movement during application, as this will affect the compaction, build and bond of the mortar. Page 2 of §22 3.0 a4 32 40 44 42 Apply one full, unbroken coat of Nitoprime Zincrich to the steel within 3 hours of cleaning, and allow drying before continuing. if unsure about continuity of the coating, apply @ second coat and allow drying. Substrate Priming ‘This can be broadly classified as : (i) standard priming conditions where a standard acrylic primer can be used, or (i) non standard priming conditions (i.e. where the substrate is contaminated with chlorides or is immersed) where an epoxy based bonding agent/isolator is required. Ifin any doubt regarding the most appropriate primer, contact the local Fosroc office Standard priming conditions ‘a) Thoroughly soak with clean water and remove excess, leaving the substrate in “saturated surface dry" condition. b) Apply Nitobond AR by scrubbing into the surface and allow to become tacky (typically 10 to 15 mins after application). ¢) Ifthe primer is too wet, or has dried, Renderoc T will not adhere properly. Non-standard priming conditions a) Thoroughly clean the substrate to remove all traces of contamination. b) Mix Nitobond EP in accordance with its current data sheet instructions. ) An unbroken coating of primer must be achieved - apply two coals. Each coat should be well ‘scrubbed’ into the prepared substrate, the first coat being allowed to gel before application of the second coat. 4) The primed substrate should then be left for one hour before proceeding with further application of the repair material. Mixing Only full bag mixing is permissible. Do not part mix, nor add further water to the mixed material in order to prolong workability. Either of these actions will result in an incorrect water- powder ratio, and will compromise final material performance. It is essential that Renderoc TG is thoroughly mixed and that the temperature of the mixed material should not be allowed to exceed 30°C. Page 3 of43 50 BA 52 53 60 61 62 63 70 TA Water addition: 4. Slitres per 25kg bag Measure out appropriate quantity of cool, potable water, into the mixing vessel (it is suggested that the temperature of the water should not exceed 20°C, so thal the final temperature of mixed mortar is not greater than 30°C). Always add the powder to the water. With the mixer in operation add the full 25kg bag of Renderoc TG, or multiples thereof, and mix continuously for § minutes unti fully homogenous, using : (2) __@ 1 KW, slow speed drill (400/500 rpm) + Fosroc MR4 mortar mixing paddle, for single bag mixing, or () a forced action, proprietary mixer for multiple bag mixing NOTE : Free-fall mixers must not be used for mixing. Application Apply mixed Renderoc TG to the substrate by trowel or gloved hand, thoroughly compacting conto the primed substrate, whilst the primer is sill tacky. Ensure that mortar is applied around the exposed steel reinforcement, compacting fully atthe rear face. Thickness of application should be in accordance with that laid down in the ‘Application criteria’ section of the current product data sheet. If sagging occurs on vertical or overhead faces, the Renderoc TG must be completely removed. The substrate must be reprimed and Renderoc TG then reapplied in layers of reduced thickness. Build-up Build-up of Renderoc TG is best achieved using a ‘wet on wet' technique, ‘Multiple layers can also be used to achieve the desired thickness and profile; but care must be taken to ensure consistency of intorcoat bond strength. ‘Where multiple layers are to be applied, the surface of intermediate layers should be ‘scratch- keyed’ and cured with wet hessian. Further applications of fresh Renderoc TG may be applied once the intermediate layer has reached its initial set, Finishing Renderoc TG is finished by striking off with a straight edge and closing with a steel or plastic float. Note that water can be drawn to the surface if ‘overworking’ with the float occurs, and an unsightly finish may result. Poge 4 ofS72 8.0 at a2 83 9.0 ot 92 Damp sponges or plastic floats may be used to achieve @ desired surface texture, but care should again be taken not to overwork the surface. Curing Curing of repaired areas should be carried out as soon as possible after the surface has been ‘closed’, using Rendercure. Rendercure should be brush or spray applied as per its current method statement. In adverse conditions (e.g. windy concitions or ambient temperatures greater than 30°C), supplementary curing in the form of polythene sheeting, taped down at the edges, should be used. Cleaning Nitobond AR, Rendercure and Renderoc TG should be removed from tools, equipment and mixers with clean water immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed by mechanical means.

SECTION II: APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS. s n 1, The surface should be free of any cement laitance, oil, grease, curing compound and any other deleterious ‘materials. Loose and unsound concrete is to be removed completely. Light sand/grit blasting or high pressure water jet is recommended for cleaning the surface of such contaminants, 2. Bolt holes should be blown clean of all debris. 3. For base or bearing plate grouting ensure that the underside of the plates are clean of all rust scales, oil, grease and other loosely adhering particles, 4. Levelling shims should be coated with a thin layer of grease, so that they can be removed without damaging the grout after it has hardened Formw Prior to the erection of the shutter/ formwork ensure that the area to be grouted is clean. 2. Its very important to keep the unstrained surface area of the grout to a minimum to avoid cracking at a later stage 3. The shutter is to be erected all around the base foundation at about 100 mm (maximum) from the edge of the base plate for the pouring side and 50mm (maximum) from the open side (directly opposite to the pouring side). Similarly, the height of the shutter should be at about 100mm (minimum) above the underside of the base plate level from the pouring side and 25mm (minimum) on the open side. 4. The formwork constructed should be rigid and tightly fixed to the substrate in order to prevent grout loss. Seal around the edge of the formwork with a suitable sealant. ‘The internal faces of the formwork should be coated with Polyrelease (Mould release oil) to ensure that water is not absorbed from the repair material by the formwork.Priming: 1. Thoroughly saturate the concrete surface with standing water prior to the pouring of the grout for about 24 hours. 2, Just before the commencement of the grouting operation, drain out all excess water. The area is again to be cleaned of any loose material, dirt or dust with an air blower. Mixing: 1. Measure out 90% of the total water to be added as recommended as per the manufacturer's instructions and pout it in a clean and open mixing container (It is suggested that the temperature of the water should not exceed 20°C, so that the temperature of the final mixed material is not greater than 30° C). Pour the entire contents of Polygrout NS (25 kg) into the container and mix continuously for 3-5 minutes ‘with a paddle mixer fitted to a slow speed deil till a uniform, homogenous and lump free consistency is achieved. Add the balance 10% of water and mix for further 2-3 minutes. Check for any lumps, bleeding or segtepation in the mixed material. If found further mix for another 2-3. minutes. 3. Itis considered to be good working practice to ventilate the mixed grout for a few minutes provided there is enough working time left. This to done to ensure the release of the entrapped air from the mix which can seriously reduce the contact area between the base plate and the installed machinery. Pouring: 1. The grout is to be placed within 30 minutes of its mixing in order to gain the full benefits of fluidity and expansion, 2, The grout will be pouted from one direction only and maintaining a certain head pressure to ensure a smooth free flow to reach the far end of the formwork. While pouting, observation is to be made to detect the flow of grout and if there is any obstruction during its passage. 3. The grouting is to be done in a single and continuous pour. Also if the head pressure drops the movement pf the grout will become sluggish and eventually will stop flowing 4. To ensure the flow of the grout under difficult working conditions, a number of mechanical aids can be used: a. Rodding the mortar at the pouring point with a steel rod or wooden stick. b. Pulling loops of wire through opposite end of the formwork. Gentle tapping with a hammer on the sides of the formwork. 5. If placing is done by pump, the pipeline should be ‘grouted” with a tich cement slurry or mortar, discharging such grout as waste Pumping of the mixed material should follow immediately. 6. Remove the formwork after a period of approximately 10 hours after the placing of the grout. Immediate curing is to be done with either water spraying, wet hessian cloth/polythene shect of a curing compound for minimum period of 72 hours. Note: Protect the repaited area from high drying winds as this will result in the development of cracks. Cleaning: Clean all tools immediately after use with water. Hardened materials can be removed mechanically only. Henke Polit Industias id Henkel Polit Industries Ld.
