Rheobuild 1000
Rheobuild 1000 is a strength enhancing, 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 no-slump concrete (25mm) without admixture. Rheobuild 1000 is a ready-to-use, chloride free, liquid admixture which meets ASTM C 494 requirements for types A and F admixtures, AS 1478 Type HWR.
Rheobuild 1000 is recommended for:
- all types of premixed concrete where high water reduction or flowing properties are required
- industrial precast concrete
- placement in cold weather
Rheobuild 1000 has been used successfully in:
- pillars and footings
- prestressed elements
- long distance, vertical or horizontal pumping
- pavements
- tunnel linings
- partition walls
- bridge girders
- precasting systems
- tunnel-type shuttering systems
- in-situ casting structures
- travelling formwork casting
- slipform casting
- cantilever casting
