Specification Clauses
Performance specification
All grouting shown on the drawing must be carried out with a
pre packed cement based product which is chloride free.
It shall be mixed with clean water to the required consistency.
The grout must not bleed or segregate.
Preparation
Levelling shims
Conbextra GP2(T)
Unrestrained surface area
This must be kept to a minimum. Generally the gap width
between the perimeter formwork and the plate edge should
not exceed 150mm on the pouring side and 50mm on the
opposite side. It is advisable, where practical, to have no gap
at the flank sides.
Mixing
For best results a mechanically powered grout mixer should
be used. When quantities up to 50kg are used, a heavy duty
slow speed drill (400-500 rpm) fitted with a paddle is suitable..
Larger quantities will require a heavy duty mixer.
To enable the grouting operation to be carried out continuously,
it is essential that sufficient mixing capacity and labour are
available. The use of a grout holding tank with provision to
gently agitate the grout may be required.

Pouring should be from one side of the void to eliminate any air
or presoaked water becoming trapped under the base plate.
It is advisable to pour the grout across the shortest distance of
travel. The grout head must be maintained at all times so that
a continuous grout front is achieved.
Where large volumes have to be placed Conbextra GP2(T) may
be pumped. A heavy duty diaphragm pump is
recommended for this purpose. Screw feed and piston pumps
may also be suitable.
Curing
On completion of the grouting operation, exposed areas should
be thoroughly cured. This should be done by the use of
Concure WB curing membrane, continuous application of
water and/or wet hessian.
