King® MS-D1
SHOTCRETE MATERIAL FOR DRY-MIX PROCESS APPLICATIONS
King® MS-D1 is a pre-blended, pre-packaged, shotcrete mix formulated for dry process applications. It contains Portland cement, silica fume, air-entraining admixture, blended aggregates, along with other carefully selected components, and presents greatly enhanced shooting characteristics and physical properties.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Repair or rehabilitation: |
All surfaces to be in contact with King® MS-D1 and its variations must be free from dust, oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated concrete providing a roughened surface and a minimum of 25 mm (1 inch) clearance behind any corroded reinforcing steel. The perimeter of the repair area should be saw-cut a minimum of 20 mm (¾ in). Clean the area to be repaired with potable water, leaving the concrete saturated but free of standing water (SSD).
Rock surfaces ( King® MS-D1 ST & King® MS-D1 MF): |
All surfaces to be in contact with King® MS-D1 ST and King® MS-D1 MF must be free from dust, oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated rock. Clean the area with potable water, leaving the substrate saturated but free of standing water (SSD).
APPLICATION
Apply in accordance with the ACI 506 “Guide to Shotcrete” publication.
OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE
- Product should not be applied when ambient substrate and material termperatures are below +5 °C (40 °F) or above +35 °C (95 °F).
- For adverse temperatures, follow ACI recommendations for Cold/Hot Weather Concreting.
- For cold temperature applications, use King® MS-D3 X2 or King® MS-D3 X3.
- When using King® MS-D1 MF or King® MS-D1 ST, recommened minimum inside diameter of shotcrete hoses should be 50 mm (2 in).
CURING TREATMENT
Curing is essential to optimize physical properties of the shotcrete and minimize plastic shrinkage. Product should be cured immediately
after material has reached initial set in accordance with ACI 308 “Guide to Curing Concrete”. Continuously moist cure for a minimum period of seven (7) days. Alternatively, moist cure for a minimum period of 24 hours and apply a curing compound that complies with ASTM C309. Curing is particularly critical in rapid moisture loss conditions such as high temperatures, high winds and low humidity.
Underground environments
Good curing conditions are beneficial to optimizing physical properties. Although the high relative humidity commonly found in underground environments provides for good curing conditions, additional curing is often appropriate and should be performed in accordance with ACI 308 “Guide to Curing Concrete''.
CLEAN UP
Clean all tools and equipment after use with water. Once hardened, the product can only be removed mechanically.
