Tecwool\u00ae F - Reinforced Concrete Protection<\/h1>
<\/div><\/div>[vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
Used in most of modern buildings, concrete is part of today\u2019s landscape\u00a0 because of its multiple applications. However, concrete strength could be seriously impaired when exposed to fire, reducing its resistance when temperature exceeds 300 \u00b0C and losing it almost completely above 550 \u00b0C. In the case of reinforced concrete, framework resistance decreases after 250 \u00b0C, damaging the adherence between steel and concrete.<\/p>\n
mcr tecresa\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong>\u00a0markets Tecwool\u00ae F mortar, tested pursuant to standard UNE ENV 13381-3, this test determines its capacity to provide protection against fire, to remain cohesive and fixed to concrete and to provide data on the temperature distribution in the entire protected concrete element when exposed to standard temperature\/time curve.<\/p>\n
The temperature information obtained in the tests performed is used to provide:<\/p>\n
    \n
  • The relation among concrete temperature, time and thickness of the fi re protection material.<\/li>\n
  • Concrete equivalent thickness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    Light, normal or heavy concrete could be used, strength classes being 20\/25 (LC\/C\/HC) to 50\/60 (LC\/C\/HC). The member can contain steel reinforcing bars.<\/p>\n

    Application<\/h2>
    <\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
    Tecwool\u00ae F<\/strong> is spread with a pneumatic machine pursuant to the following
    \ntechnical specifications:<\/p>\n
    The surface to be protected requires no prior primer, mesh or any other type of
    \nsupport for the mortar adherence.<\/p>\n
    The surface to be protected should be free from dust, oil, waste, poorly attached particles, paint leftovers, etc.<\/p>\n
    It is recommended to use water with the application hose to wash dirt away from the faces. This will also help achieve a thermal balance between the mortar and the applied surface.<\/p>\n
    Tecwool\u00ae F<\/strong> can provide different finishings:<\/p>\n
    Rugged, smooth, painted, etc., according to different aesthetic requirements. Once the spread is completed and in order to obtain a smooth finishing, a roller should be used and pressed slightly over the wet mortar until the desired finishing is obtained. It is possible to paint the mortar with elastic
    \nacrylic coatings to form a steam barrier. Before painting the mortar should be
    \ncompletely dry (28 days).<\/p>\n
    Once spread, mortar should be water sprayed superficially to ensure optimum
    \nsettling of the cement.<\/p>\n
