Project Description
FORTA EXTEND-PRO was used, in conjunction with a fiber dosage of 5.0 lb/cu yd of FORTA-FERRO macro synthetic fibers, to extend the finishing time on a 100,000 sq ft commercial warehouse in Cincinnati, OH. On a large job site especially, consistency from concrete truck to concrete truck can sometimes be an issue. This can cause finish inconsistency on the surface of the concrete. Using EXTEND-PRO during the steel trowel finishing phase of the project, while working it into the wet concrete, aids in reducing these inconsistencies. This creates a more uniform final finished concrete slab. EXTEND-PRO gave contractors the ability to gain crucial working time and enhance the concrete surface strength once fully cured.
Key Points
- Increase Surface Strength
- Extend Worktime
