READYCON SSC – Self Smoothing Concrete

READYCON SSC is a proportional blend of high-quality materials including well-graded fine and coarse aggregates, ordinary portland cement & special concrete admixtures. After mixing with water at the site Readycon is designed to produce a concrete mix that’s easy to work with & provides excellent strength.
Readycon makes it particularly suited for concrete jobs in & around home small concrete projects like sidewalk or driveway repairs, bags of premixed concrete can be a money-saving alternative to buying ready mix bulk concrete.

It is used in the construction of columns, beams, decks, Mass concreting, can be used in floor laying works with efficiency for pavement concrete,

ADVANTAGES
o Makes concrete denser hence durability increases
o Improves workability & high efficiency
o Quality and Consistency
o Environment Friendly
o Convenient Delivery
o Versatility
o Reduced Wastage
o Reduced Life-Cycle Cost
o Ideal for columns, beams, decks

DESCRIPTION
There is a two types of READYCON SSC -are available based on compressive strength requirements.
• READYCON SSC –35
• READYCON SSC – 50

TYPICAL APPLICATION
Commercial:
Exterior and interior floors, polished concrete, slabs, parking areas and roadways.
Residential:
Driveways, sidewalks, pool construction, basements, colored concrete, foundations, drainage, etc.
Warehouse & Industrial:
Light- to heavy-duty loaded floors and roadways.

Typical Compressive strength of Readycon

APPLICATION PROCEDURE
o First add half of the water in the mixing container of the total qty.
o Then Open a bag of READYCON SSC and pour it into your mixing container.
o Turn the mixer on and allow the concrete to mix for about a minute and then add the water as necessary.
o Mix the concrete for about 5-7 minutes, until a uniform, workable consistency is achieved.
o If additional water is needed, add small amounts of water sparingly, and allow mixing properly.
o Keep the mixer running and dump the concrete into a wheelbarrow for transporting to your work area.

TYPICAL RESULT WITH USE OF READYCON SSC PRODUCTS
o The water qty is determined by the gross weight of the bag.

Recommended water addition ratio:
o The addition of 4.5 liters of water to a 50 kg bag of READYCON SSC according to the site requirements & workability will produce around.

COVERAGE:
o 45 X 50 kg bag required one cubic meter.
Packing: – 25 & 50kg Bag

Speciality Concrete Admixture – Polycarboxylate Ether

Chemical admixtures are usually added as liquids or powders in relatively small quantities and may be used to modify the properties during the plastic or hardened state of concrete. Chemical admixtures can be divided into five types: accelerating, retarding, water reducing/plasticizing, air-entraining, and waterproofers. One such chemical admixture specially developed is the Modified carboxylic ether admixture. It offers much larger flexibility in molecular design. Polycarboxylate ethers (PCE) contain groups with polyoxyalkylene, especially polyethylene or polypropylene glycol groups as well as carboxylic acid and/or carboxylic acid anhydride monomers. Fairmate is also manufacturing this product. Fairmate’s Brocrete SCC is a specially formulated admixture based on modified carboxylic ether. It produces flowing concrete that can consolidate under its own weight. It is supplied as a yellowish or whitish colored liquid, miscible with water. It is specifically designed to flow easily through highly congested, heavily reinforced areas.

Benefits of Brocrete SCC

● Reduce labour – due to the ease of placement, large pour sizes are achievable with reduced labour and plant requirements
● Noise – eliminating traditional methods of placing and finishing concrete reduces noise, which is particularly important in inner-city and built-up residential areas
● Flexible placing – ideal for jobs with difficult access where longer pumping distances are involved
● Health and Safety – reduced labour and plant requirements lead to reduced health and safety hazards
● Reduce capital cost and maintenance on formwork
● Increase durability and lower permeability

Applications of Brocrete SCC

● Areas of complex formwork
● Areas of congested reinforcement
● Mass fill pours
● Can be used both horizontally and vertically

Packing and Dosage of BROCRETE SCC

It is supplied in 50, 100, 200, 225 kg carboys, and in bulk quantity on request. The normal dosage is about 0.6%-1.5% by weight of cementitious material. However, the optimum dosage is to be determined by site trials.

Fairmate range of admixtures

Fairmate produces a variety of chloride-free and chloride-based concrete admixtures for increasing the workability of concrete which includes Normal plasticizers, Superplasticizers, Retarders, Slump retainers and Accelerators etc. It also includes Fourth generation concrete Admixtures which ensure very high slump retention and early strength. It also includes mineral admixtures like Micro silica, Fly Ash, Cellulose fiber, Polypropylene fibre & Steel fibre. Admixtures for plasters for better consistency.
