POLYPROPYLENE FIBER – REINFORCING FIBER FOR SHOTCRETE

Polypropylene fibre (short-cut strands of very fine denier monofilament) is added to the concrete during batching. Thousands of individual fibres are then evenly dispersed throughout the concrete during the mixing process creating a matrix-like structure. Improves concrete’s resistance to plastic shrinkage cracking. Inhibits formation of microcracks due to dimensional change. Reduces sedimentation.

ADVANTAGE:

• Increased cohesion of the mix
• No requirement for crack control steel mesh
• Concrete placement and crack control in ONE operation
• Reduced bleeding
• Mesh reinforcement
• Reduced settlement
• Easier finishing
• No delays to fast track schedule
