Batimix Concrete 542

Ultra-accelerated setting concrete for repair - Grade R3 as per ASTM C928

Description

BATIMIX Concrete 542 is a pre-packaged ultra-accelerated setting concrete repair material classified as Grade R3 according to ASTM C928. It is made from Portland and alumina cement, carefully-graded fine and coarse aggregates, and set-accelerating, plasticizing, and shrinkage-compensating agents. It is a specialized construction material designed to rapidly restore damaged structures. Engineered with advanced additives and precise aggregate selection, this concrete formulation ensures exceptional early strength development and reduced curing time, allowing for swift repair work. Its Grade R3 classification signifies its capability to achieve rapid setting while maintaining robust structural integrity, providing a reliable solution for urgent repair projects that demand both speed and durability.
