    THIS METHOD STATEMENT COVERS THE PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION OF


    MasterFlow 980HF AS A CAST-IN-PLACE REPAIR.
    METHOD STATEMENT: MasterFlow 980HF

    1. GENERAL:
    1.1. If required, the area to be repaired should be marked on the structure and should be
    subject to revision based on conditions found as breaking out proceeds.
    1.2. All areas of concrete identified as defective or contaminated should be removed.

    2. PREPARATION:
    2.1. After identification, the edges of all repairs should be cut by diamond blade to produce an
    edge depth of 20mm. There should be no feather edges. Minimum thickness of repair
    should be 40mm.
    2.2. Loose concrete within the cut-out areas shall be removed.
    2.3. Removal of loose concrete should be undertaken using suitable mechanical means or by
    high pressure water jetting. Removal of concrete should continue until sound; dense
    concrete is encountered.
    2.4. The substrate should be prepared to a rough surface where the aggregate is showing.
    2.5. The prepared surface should be sound, free of all oil, grease, loose aggregate or other
    contaminants that could impair adhesion.
    2.6. Exposed steel should be cleaned by high pressure water jetting, mechanical abrasion or
    grit blasting, and should be washed down with potable water to remove any residual
    contaminated rust. Steel reinforcement should be fully exposed to allow the repair
    material to fully envelop it and create a mechanical anchor for the repair.
    2.7. If reinforcement has deteriorated, this should be removed and replaced as directed by the
    Engineer.

    3. COATING OF STEEL:
    3.1. Generally, there should be no need to coat the reinforcement.

    4. PRIMING / FORMWORK:
    4.1. Formwork shall be erected, ensuring it is firmly in place, sealed to be “grout tight”, and to
    provide at least 20mm cover to steel.
    4.2. Provision must be made for drainage outlets at the lowest points of the sealed formwork.
    4.3. A 45° birds mouth shall be constructed at the top of the formwork to ensure ease of
    placement of the MasterFlow 980HF.
    4.4. The shuttered repair shall be saturated for 3-4 hours with potable water prior to
    placement of MasterFlow 980HF.

    5. TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS:
    5.1. MasterFlow 980HF shall be used when the ambient temperature is between +5°C and
    50°C. Chilled water shall be utilised to prevent mixed material temperatures exceeding
    32°C.
    5.2. Substrate temperatures should not be less than 5°C. In hot weather areas to be repaired
    shall be shaded from direct sunlight.

    6. MIXING:
    6.1. MasterFlow 980HF should be mixed using a heavy-duty drill and paddle, a forced action
    paddle mixer or a modified free fall mixer.
    6.2. Ensure the mixing container is clean and dampened down prior to mixing.
    6.3. A proportion of the specified amount of water (approx. 90%) to achieve the required flow
    shall be poured into the mixer. Steadily pour the powder whilst the mixing drum is
    rotating.
    6.4. Mixing shall be for approximately 3 minutes during which time the remaining mix water
    shall be added, if required, until a uniform free flowing consistency is achieved.
    6.5. Water addition shall be 2.8 to 3.5 L of potable water per 25kg bag depending upon
    consistency / strength required.

    7. APPLICATION:
    7.1. Ensure all free water is drained from the formwork and the drain holes are plugged before
    mixing the MasterFlow 980HF.
    7.2. The mixed MasterFlow 980HF shall be poured steadily and continuously, through the
    birds mouth opening at the top of the formwork. A slow steady pouring rate reduces the
    chances of air entrapment.
    7.3. Alternatively, the MasterFlow 980HF shall be placed by pouring into a funnel attached to
    a flexible pipe of 50mm diameter, the pipe is initially placed near the bottom of the
    formwork. The pipe is then raised as the pour continues.
    7.4. MasterFlow 980HF shall be placed continuously, minimizing the amount of time between
    successive batches.
    7.5. For large scale repairs of extended volume, the MasterFlow 980HF can be placed in
    layers of approx 300mm thickness. Each layer would be placed and allowed to reach
    “initial set” (1-2 hours) and then repeated with the successive layers applying the
    MasterFlow 980HF wet onto partially set material.
    7.6. MasterFlow 980HF is self-compacting and does not require external vibration. Tapping
    the formwork lightly with a hammer during placement will contribute towards effective
    consolidation of the material.

    8. CURING:
    8.1. Apply MasterKure 181 curing compound, to all surfaces, by spray, immediately upon
    removal of formwork. Ensure this extend at least 10cm onto the adjacent concrete around
    the periphery of the repair.
    8.2. Protect from wind, rain and direct sunlight for 24 hours.
