- Also applicable on moist crack faces
- For creating force-fitting connections between cracked parts made of concrete and screed
- For embedding PCI Apogel Du?belnSurface preparation
- Cracks in concrete must be free of dirt and dust; crack faces can be moist
- Before grouting, insert injection ports using drill or adhesive plugs
- For moist cracks, use drill plugs
- Insert drill plugs
- Drill the component along the crack with a stone drill bit matching the packer diameter; the drill hole should cut approximately through the center of the crack in the component
- Drill holes alternately on the left and right of the crack
- The distance between drill holes should not exceed half the component thickness or 60 cm
- Vacuum dust from the drill holes
- Insert drill packers into the prepared holes and seal the cracks with the following PCI products:
- PCI Polyfix 5 Min for crack grouting after 30 to 60 minutes or on moist surfaces
- PCI Collastic for crack grouting after at least approx. 3 hours and during minor crack width changes during drying or grouting work
- PCI Construction Resin or PCI Epoxy Primer 390 with PCI injection aid for high-pressure crack grouting after approx. 24 hours
- Set adhesive plugs
- Clean the component surfaces by sanding
- Attach adhesive plugs with PCI Collastic or PCI Construction Resin over the crack
- The plug spacing should correspond to the component thickness
- Seal cracks as described for drill plugsCracks or false joints in screeds
- Enlarge cracks or joints and remove loose or degraded parts from the edges
- Open the cracks or joints with a grinding disc up to two-thirds of the screed thickness
- For preparation of reinforcement, e.g., with PCI screed clamps, cut perpendicular to the crack direction
- Saw cross slots in the substrate at a distance of approx. 10 to 20 cm, with a length of approx. 10 cm and a depth of about 2/3 of the screed thickness using a cutting disc
- Thoroughly vacuum cracks and slotsNote: For heated screeds, repair may not be feasible depending on the construction type and the position of heating pipes due to the high risk of damage.Hollow areas in screeds
- Locate and mark hollow areas in the screed plates by tapping
- Drill perpendicular to the intact substrate in the hollow area
- Depending on the size of the hollow, drill at the room edges of the hollow zone or in a suitable grid pattern
- Vacuum the drill dust and insert drill packers
- Leave two or more drill holes open in each hollow area to prevent foam-like fluid pressure during groutingProcessing of PCI Apogel
- Wear suitable protective gloves and safety glasses or face protection; avoid spraying
- PCI Apogel is supplied in the appropriate mixing ratio
- Fully transfer the component to the base component and mix intensively with a clean, at least 2 cm wide and sufficiently long wooden spatula for about 2 minutes
- After mixing, no streaks should be visible
- Decant the homogeneous PCI Apogel into a clean container to ensure product homogeneity, avoiding dripping
- Stir again before useGrouting of cracks or false joints in screeds
- For narrow cracks up to approx. 2 mm, use PCI Apogel F or PCI Apogel Schnell
- Cracks must be filled to a minimum depth of 5 mm or 15 times the crack width
- For wider cracks, mix PCI Apogel with quartz sand and groutReinforcement
- When grouting cracks, false joints, and cross slots with PCI Apogel, insert screed clamps into the cross slots
- PCI screed clamps are available in cartons of 500 pieces
- Excess or leaking material should be removed from the surface
- After drying, if a bonded covering such as screed or tiles is applied, fully sprinkle the fresh PCI Apogel with quartz sand (grain size 0.3 to 0.8 mm)Safety data sheet
