Rheobuild 716LR
Rheobuild 716LR is a superplasticising, high range, water reducing admixture formulated to produce rheoplastic concrete.
Rheoplastic concrete is fluid concrete with a slump value of at least 200mm, easily flowing but at the same time free from segregation, and having the same water/cement ratio as that of a no-slump concrete (25mm) without additive. The slump-retention characteristics of rheoplastic concrete permit the addition of Rheobuild 716LR admixture at the batch plant.
This ready-to-use chloride free liquid admixture meets ASTM C 494 requirements for Type G admixtures, AS 1478 type HWRRe.
Rheobuild 716LR is recommended for:
-
all types of premixed concrete where high water reduction or flowing properties are required
-
reinforced and prestressed concrete beams
-
foundation rafts
-
foundation piles
-
storage tanks
-
purification plants
-
underwater structures
-
diaphragm walls
-
jetties, wharves
-
highly-reinforced structures
-
bank vaults
-
silos
-
towers and chimneys
-
tunnel linings
-
irrigation canals
-
weirs and tunnels in hydro-electric structures
-
airfield runways and roads
