PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS F.1.1.1 Hydro-scarifying Hydro-scarification and removal of the cortex of deteriorated cementitious conglomerate, using hydro-scarifying equipment producing jets of water with a maximum pressure of 2,500 atm and a flow-rate of 250 litres of water per minute, to remove all deteriorated concrete and/or prepare the adhesion surface between old and new cast concrete without compromising either the integrity and anchorage of exposed steel reinforcement, or the structural integrity of concrete around the demolished areas. Included and calculated in the price for work carried...

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS F.1.1.2 Hand or power chiselling and cleaning steel reinforcement by brushing Removal of the cortex of deteriorated cementitious conglomerate, using hand or power chisels, to remove all deteriorated concrete and/or prepare the adhesion surface between old and new cast concrete without compromising either the integrity and anchorage of exposed steel reinforcement, or the structural integrity of concrete around the demolished areas. Exposed steel reinforcement is then cleaned with a hand or power brush to remove oxidation, aggressive chemicals, loose surfaces and any traces...

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS Cleaning of concrete surfaces and exposed steel reinforcement, where hydro-scarifying has not been carried out, by hydro-sandblasting with silica sand to remove oxidation, aggressive chemicals, loose surfaces and any traces of oil, grease, dirt and all other pollutants to leave a bare metal surface (grade SA 2½) (ISO 8501-1). Hydro-sandblasting is not required if the surface has been prepared by hydro-scarifying. However, if the time between hydro-scarifying and treating the steel reinforcement is particularly long due to on-site logistics, hydro-sandblasting must be carried...

PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS STEEL REINFORCEMENT Replacement of damaged steel reinforcement and positioning new reinforcement Supply and installation of steel reinforcement in reinforced cement structures, after demolishing and breaking-up the cement to enable steel reinforcement to be arranged/replaced, before applying rheoplastic cementitious conglomerate, pre-mixed castable cementitious mortar and concrete. Included and calculated in the price for work carried out according to specification: all costs to cut, straighten or bend new steel reinforcement according to design specifications; positioning,...

PROTECTION OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT F.2.1 PROTECTION USING ANTI-CORROSION CEMENTITIOUS MORTAR Concrete structures deteriorated by carbonation and chlorides F.2.1.1 Application of one-component, anti-corrosion, re-alkalising cementitious mortar Supply and application of a passivating treatment for steel reinforcement, by brush-applying two coats of one-component, anti-corrosion cementitious mortar made from cementitious binders, powdered polymers and corrosion inhibitors (such as Mapefer 1K produced by MAPEI S.p.A.). Apply the mortar after adequate preparation of the substrate (not included), by...

PROTECTION OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT Application of two-component, anti-corrosion, re-alkalising cementitious mortar Supply and application of a passivating treatment for steel reinforcement by brush-applying two coats of two-compone anti-corrosion cementitious mortar made from cementitious binders, powdered polymers and corrosion inhibitors (such Mapefer produced by MAPEI S.p.A.). Apply the mortar after adequate preparation of the substrate (not included), by remov all deteriorated concrete to obtain a solid, sufficiently-rough substrate with no loose portions and removing all rust from s reinforcement...

F.2 PROTECTION OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT Procedure Protection of steel reinforcement Protection of steel reinforcement using Mapeshield 110/20 (see section F.2.2.1.1) or Mapeshield I 30/20 (see section F.2.2.1.2) pure zinc internal sacrificial anodes. The number of anodes connected to the steel reinforcement depends on the amount of steel contained in the first 20 cm of concrete, starting from the surface exposed to aggressive agents. For a steel/concrete surface area ratio of 1, use 2 Mapeshield 110/20 anodes per square metre or 1.5 Mapeshield I 30/20 anodes per square metre. Weld the connectors...
