Demonstration will show Schönox AP Rapid Plus poured over Schönox Renotex® 3D Glass Fiber Reinforcement fabric that makes up our Renotex® 3D Renovation System. It is designed to create a new substrate for subsequent floor covering installation. Schönox AP Rapid Plus is a pumpable self-leveling compound designed for deep pour, fast-track installations on most substrates in interior areas. It is built with Hybrid Active-Dry Technology, which means that ambient air temperature and humidity have no effect on curing times. This technology is the culmination of Schönox’s extensive research in this area to develop products with fast strength and drying characteristics with minimal shrinkage or expansion. Combined, the Schönox Renotex® 3D System is strong, versatile, and durable.
Proper installation of the RFP and Mesh system on stucco substrates that have cracking issues will be demonstrated. This involves application of the product with embedded mesh. Also shown will be the application of a "Kiss Coat" of material applied over the previous first coat installation. Finally, how to perform a field adhesion test to ensure adequate bond will be demonstrated. The product, history, benefits and procedures for a successful application and installation will be discussed as well as proper surface preparation and how weather conditions can affect the installation. Demonstration will be hands-on installation on an actual building.
The recommended application methods utilized to successfully install Pecora Deck HB1000, a two-part polyurethane traffic coating, will be demonstrated. Demonstration and discussion will include primers, waterproofing base coats, and high-build, UV resistant topcoat.
This demonstration will introduce the WJE CASLE™ (Corrosion Assessment Service Life Evaluation) software for predicting corrosion-related damage in reinforced concrete structures. This tool helps engineers more effectively quantify remaining service life and guide repair decisions for existing structures, as well as evaluate protection/durability design strategies for new structures. Developed in-house by WJE’s materials engineers for WJE structural assessment projects, WJE CASLE™ offers full control of the evaluation process and facilitates a customizable approach to construction parameters and exposure conditions unique to each project. Advantages of the software include consideration of site-specific conditions such as construction geometry, sealers, coatings, corrosion-resistant reinforcing, presence/installation of overlays, existing chloride profiles, concrete cracking, and two-sided exposure. Model features will be outlined with a focus on evaluation of existing structures.
This demonstration will highlight the successful renovation of a concrete floor at the Flatstick Pub in downtown Spokane, Washington. The application of a self-levelling, polishable cementitious topping will be shown and the benefits of topping versus complete tear-out of the floor will be described.
Demonstration will show what an acceptable CMU substrate for application of air barrier materials looks like, how to prepare Sprayable Cat 5 air barrier coating for application, discuss proper pump specifications for spraying the material, and demonstrate best practices for spraying Sprayable Cat 5, a Silyl-Terminated Polymer air barrier to a CMU substrate, while providing “tips & tricks” along the way.
We will provide a brief presentation on the AET team, the AET services and business, how we operate as a team and perform our testing services, and what benefits we can provide our customers. We strive to get to know our clients well, educate them, and provide innovative, multi-disciplinary, and personalized service.
The FRCM externally bonded Composite Strengthening Systems repair and reinforcement solution combines high-performance sprayable mortar with a carbon-fiber grid that creates a thin structural layer without significantly increasing the structure's weight or volume. With FRCM, contractors can effectively repair, protect, and strengthen concrete and masonry structures in a single application for a fraction of the installed cost of traditional shotcrete.
This demonstration will highlight the various product forms that can be integrated in a retrofit solution for extreme loading, that the product utilizes existing retrofit construction implementation practices and provides a lighter-weight retrofit solution when compared to retrofits that utilize standard or high-strength concrete solutions, and has superior multi-threat mitigation performance when compared with other concrete retrofit mitigation solutions for extreme loading events.
