Batimix Concrete 540

Accelerated setting concrete for repair - Grade R1 as per ASTM C928

Description

BATIMIX Concrete 540 is a pre-packaged fast-setting high strength concrete repair material. It is made of Portland cement, carefully-graded fine and coarse aggregates, and selected additives such as set-accelerating, plasticizing, and shrinkage-compensating agents. It is a specialized concrete blend optimized to swiftly attain robust strength and setting attributes, making it an ideal choice for efficient and timely repair undertakings. By employing high-quality materials and additives, including accelerators, this concrete type fosters accelerated hydration and setting reactions, allowing rapid progress in repair projects such as infrastructure maintenance and construction. It ensures not only quick restoration but also sustained durability, although proper mixing, placing, and curing practices remain imperative for optimal long-term performance of the repaired structures.
