HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE REPAIR

Concrete is strong in compression, but comparatively weak in tension. The inclusion of steel reinforcement improves the tensile strength of the element and, consequently, its resistance to stress. Unfortunately, in the presence of water and oxygen, steel corrodes. Therefore, in almost all likely exposure conditions for reinforced concrete, corrosion of the steel is a potential hazard.

Sika offers a complete range of high performance repair mortars and concrete for applications ranging from cosmetic to structural repairs. Our repair mortars and concrete systems are compatible with a full range of Sika repair and protection materials so that not only the visible signs of damage are repaired, but deterioration is addressed, extending the service life and sustainability of the structure.

Concrete Repair & Protection Product Categories

Concrete Curing & Finishing

The final stage of any new construction project is the finishing phase. The finished details are what truly counts to bring the project from raw structure to a livable, usable, beautiful space. From interior walls to facades, from tiny joints to huge floor areas, Sika can help finish the job with solutions that are durable, long-lasting, protective, and stunning. After final finishing, the concrete surface must be kept continuously wet or sealed to prevent evaporation for a period of at least seven days. The earlier the curing can start the better it is for the concrete. Curing is a moisture management balancing act.

Grouting

Grouting mortars are free-flowing, high strength cement or synthetic resin-based mortars, used for filling voids under machines or other structural elements, sealing joints and openings in surfaces and reinforcing existing structures. Sika can provide all technologies of grouting materials for specific applications on site.

Self-Levelling Products

Sika supplies self-leveling cementitious underlayments whose outstanding performance has been proven in construction projects in residential and non-industrial environments.

Silane Water Repellents & Concrete Protective Coatings

IN BUILDINGS AND CIVIL ENGINEERING STRUCTURES, water should generally be kept out and away to prevent deterioration and damage, with subsequent loss of value and/or function. In addition to the problems of water penetration and damp, water ingress can also bring many other deleterious soluble materials into the substrates, including salts such as chlorides and sulphates, plus other aggressive influences. There are therefore several different reasons for using a hydrophobic impregnation

Repair & Resurfacing

Renovation of buildings and infrastructure is an important phase in construction. It helps to provide a sustainable approach to building by prolonging the life of a structure and preventing demolition and reconstruction.

Self-Compacting Concrete/Cast-in-place Concrete

An efficient way of fast and easy placing of concrete is the use of self-compacting concrete. It is able to flow under its own weight, completely filling formwork and achieving full compaction without vibration, even in the presence of congested reinforcement.

Corrosion Inhibition/Bonding Agents

Corrosion inhibition/bonding agents are used for bonding concrete repair mortars to existing cementitious or steel substrates and providing additional corrosion protection to reinforcement steel, especially in areas of low concrete cover and in the presence of chlorides. Exposed reinforcement steel bars should be properly prepared and protected with anti-corrosion slurry to further enhance the repair process.

Admixtures & Additives

Admixtures and additives are materials added to concrete for the optimization of the concrete properties and the concrete grinding process.
