Applications
Remix General Purpose Concrete is
suitable for concrete bases, garage and shed floors, post erection,
walkways, steps, patios backfill, infill, general repair work and other
non structural applications.
Quality
The mix is a kiln dried, pre blended,
factory produced prescribed concrete mix incorporating standardised
binders and aggregates with a guaranteed cement content and mix
proportions.
Mixing Instructions
To overcome any potential segregation
that has occurred in transit, thoroughly mix the maxi bag contents
before use.
The contents of the bag can be mechanically mixed in a free fall mixer
for 3-4 minutes or hand mixed by pouring the contents of the bag onto a
clean flat surface and slowly adding clean water in increments and
mixing continuously until the desired workability is achieved.
For optimum results approximately 2.0 to 2.5 litres of clean water
should be used per bag. Concrete should be used within 60 minutes of
water addition.
Refrain from excessive water addition as this will weaken the the mix,
delay setting times and adversely affect durability.
There is no need to add further additives or admixtures to the material
on site as all required plasticizers/workability aids are already
incorporated into the mix.
After Laying
For optimum results, the concrete should be cured for at least seven
days after laying by covering with plastic sheeting or other suitable
material. Similar measures should be taken where appropriate to protect
the concrete from the effects of the sun, wind, rain and frost.
