ApplicationDISTRIBUTION Add the fibers together with the dry aggregates taking care to distribute the fibers evenly throughout the mix. The fibers can also be added after all the components of the mixture have been dosed, but in this case the mixing time will have to be increased to ensure a uniform distribution of the fibers (1 minute of additional mixing is recommended for each m 3 ). Do not add the fibers directly to the mixing water. Recommended dosage ~600 g (~21.2 oz) per m 3 of concrete. To reduce exfoliation of concrete at high temperatures, a dosage of 1000-2000 g/m 3 of concrete is recommended. |
