MIXING
Place about 70–80 % of the premeasured clean water (depending on consistency required - refer to “Mix Ratio”) into a clean container and gradually add the whole bag of Davco 702 MY into it while continuously mixing. Add the remaining water and continue mixing until the desired consistency is obtained. Mix for 2 to 3 minutes with a slow speed drill and paddle (~500 rpm).
For large quantities mixing, the use of a forced-action mixer of rotating pan, paddle or trough type is preferred. Free fall mixers should not be used.
APPLICATION
Use Davco 702 MY for grouting only.
After mixing, stir lightly with a spatula for a few seconds to release any entrapped air. The grout is then poured immediately into the prepared formwork.
When carrying out baseplate grouting, ensure sufficient pressure head is maintained for uninterrupted mortar flow. For formwork repair, the prepared formwork must be firmly in place and kept watertight.
When placing grout over a large area, it is important to maintain a continuous flow throughout. Work sequence must be properly organised to ensure an uninterrupted flow. In large areas, Davco 702 MY may be pumped using heavy duty diaphragm pumps. Screw feed and piston pumps may also be used.
Specific Areas of Application
- Grouting under baseplate - pourable consistency
- Formwork grouting (example deep honeycombs, column reinforcements, etc.
- pouring method - flowable / pourable consistency
- prepacked method - flowable consistency.
- Grouting anchor bolts - stiff consistency
- Grouting large volumes - for sections thicker than 50 mm, it is necessary to fill Davco 702 MY with graded 10 mm silt free aggregates to minimise temperature rise generated during the curing stage. The quantity of aggregates should not exceed 1 part aggregates to 1 part Davco 702 MY by weight. For such mixes, a conventional concrete mixer and pump may be used. To further ensure that air entrapped during mixing is allowed to fully escape, it may be necessary to make breather holes. Use steel rods or chains to assist the flow of the grout where necessary.
CURING TREATMENT
On completion of the grouting operation, exposed areas should be thoroughly cured. This should be done by the use of Sika® Antisol® E curing compound, continuous application of water and / or wet hessian.
