6.1 Surface Preparation
Concrete surfaces should be clean, free from sand and dust, loose particles, cement
laitance, oil, grease or any other contamination.
6.2 Mixing
Pre-dose the required volume of clean water into a clean mixing vess0el. For a flowable
mix use 4 ltrs of water per 25 kg bag. Add the powder slowly into the pre-measured
clean water and mix mechanically for at least 3 minutes with a slow speed mixer and
until a smooth, uniform consistency is achieved. (See attached data sheet)
6.3 Placing
All bolt voids must be filled with grout before pouring the rest of the under plate grout
to prevent voids being formed. The grout must be poured steadily to reduce the air
entrapping. (See attached data sheet).
6.4 Curing
Grouts by keeping wet to avoid rapid loss of water. Also be treated with water as in
normal curing practice should be applied as for any other cementitious material.
6.5 Cleaning
Clean all equipment and tools with water immediately after use. Hardened material can
only be removed mechanically.
7. Remarks
Formwork fitted around the base to contain grout must be as watertight as is practical, to
prevent grout loss.
The casting of concrete should start from the center of tulip plates in order to prevent
gaps under plates.
The area should not be cleaned with water, if needed excessive water should be
removed.
