TRIMIX:
How to place high-quality durable Industrial floors the requirements on the quality of
Industrials floors have rapidly become more exacting during the few years. The reason for this is
mainly the use of fork-left trucks and other modern transport equipment. The increased wheel
loads require higher compressive strength and wear resistance of the floor than before. With
increasing lift heights higher accuracy as to the fines of the floors becomes a prerequisite. These
demands of cause lead to a further checking of traditional floor placing methods and to
development of new building methods. The TREMIX Vacuum Dewatering Technique Which
is described here satisfies these high quality requirements. In addition, this method advantages
.e.g. Lower manufacturing costs. offers several
Traditional floor placing: several courses.
According to traditional floor placing methods, a base course is first placed. This base is then
covered with a topping. This topping, which may consists of one or several courses, must be
placed very carefully. Therefore, it is quite a hard work. The topping must have good bond to
the structural concrete if it is to function in operation and in traffic. Problems like break away of
the topping are usual on this type of floors.
In spite of similar initial materials, the physical properties of concrete and topping are different.
Both layer behave differently at varying temperature-weather-and environment conditions. This may
lead to stresses in the floor. For bimetals, such stresses are desirable but not for industrial floors,
as they cause separation of the topping from the base concrete, cracking and finally breakaway. A
repair is then inevitable Repairs are not only expensive but also associated with costly
interruptions in production and cause dust and noise problems.
Modern floors: single course.
The considerations to avoid the problems involved with traditional floor placing lead to
monolithic industrial floors. The structural concrete needs no topping.
The monolithic method is successfully used in road building since decades. Extensive research
and practical experience from the placing of thousands of kilometers of concrete roads have brought
these up to their present high quality level. The Monolithic concrete roads are placed with heavy
building machines. Very stiff concrete consistency class K-1 with a very low water/cement ratio
used. Road building owes its high quality to this technique.
The great weight of the machines and the hardly workable concrete do not however, in general
allow the use of this technique for industrials floors.
Monolithic industrial floors, which have the same high quality as concrete roads, are therefore
nowadays-placed according go the TRIMIX Vacuum Dewatering Method.
92 | P a g e
The advantage of this method is that a plastic and easily workable concrete can be placed with
light equipment, and after that great part of the surplus water is extracted from the concrete,
and the desirable quality y improvement is achieved.
The TRIMIX Vacuum Dewatering Method has been used with great success for high-quality
Industrial floors for many years.
The use of the TRIMIX Vacuum Dewatering Method.
This method follows the well-known laws of concrete technology and construction. For full
utilization of the advantages of the advantages of the TREMIX Vacuum Dewatering system, the
following points should be observed already at the planning stage.
Base:
If the Industrial floors are placed directly on the ground, the base must have a sufficient
bearing capacity. If necessary, frost protection layers are placed on free surfaces or appropriate
filling materials for floors in halls or hangars.
At this work and also at the ensuing concrete placing careful attention should aid to the
calculation of the expected traffic loads keeping in mind also those often-bigger ones, which occur
during the construction work.
If industrial floors are placed as suspended floors, the usual conditions regarding formwork and
static loads are valid.
Installations:
The position of the pipes for water and drainage, heating, electrics supply and telephones must
be fixed before concreting starts, so they not hinder the concreting work. Through vacuum
processing shrinkage is reduced by 50.75 % compared to that of normal concrete. Correspondingly,
Joint spacing can be increased on vacuum dewatered industrial floors. Joint less bays 20x20 m is
possible. New condition for this is however that stability of the bars and the construction including
reinforcement is calculated with regard to future traffic loads.
Also on suspended floors the joint distance can be increased. At the execution, however
attention must be paid to the stresses of the construction. The joints must be expansion joints
which give enough room for the movement of concrete. Expansion joints can as a rule is localized
on fixed bases for flat industrial floors. Dummy joints are working joints, the placing of which is
determined by daily production e.g. 400 Sq.mt. at 20x20 m for heavy traffic the joints must be
carried out as for highways with grooved joints. Contraction joints to ¼ of the slab thickness are cut
afterwards. They give clear and stresses.
Their construction is easier and cheaper than from removal their function faultless and reliable.
Slope:
Concrete floors can have star shaped or roof shaped slopes Roof shaped slopes preferable.
Separation layer:
Before placing concrete on ground, a plastic sheet must be placed on the gravel or sand bed as
a separation layer for protection against humidity and water. It also works as a sliding layer
which prevents concrete from sticking to the sub base and allows the working of the concrete, in
order to avoid cracking.
93 | P a g e
This separation layer is not needed for suspended floors Concrete is placed directly on ordinary
from and special preparation are not necessary.
Reinforcement:
Reinforcement depends on the static constructional demands on the floors. A careful estimation of
the expected traffic loads on the floor and the base is necessary.
Important:
Vacuum concrete should be made according to standards IRC-58 with regard to concrete quality
you must not use so much water that it runs on its own into the for work. Even if the excess water is
then extracted during to vacuum treatment the quality of the concrete would suffer. Therefore the
exacting demands of the standard IRC-58 should be observed.
Admixture:
A pre-test of the admixtures, if used is to the carried out on order to determine their suitability
for vacuum dewatering.
Quality:
The improved properties of vacuum concrete can be proved by taking specimens from cores or 15
cm cubes. The cubes are made in a TTREMIX laboratory apparatus called TM 1. Work cycle
according to the TREMIX Vacuum dewatering process. The TREMIX Vacuum dewatering
process has been developed in order to rationalize the concrete work and to achieve high quality
concrete floors.
This system is advantageous to anyone involved in buildings projects, to the designer as it means
high quality and new aspects on the practical work, to a contractor trouble-from application on
sites, to estimating engineer noticeable cost savings and finally, to the end user durability and
maintenance costs.
Concrete of consistency (8-12 cm slump) is placed either by pump crame skip or direct from
concrete truck. Then follows poker vibration. The next step is leveling which is carried out with
TREMIX surface vibrator.
The surface vibrator, available in lengths of 3 to 12 m. consists of a light alloy double beam.
The beam is provided with tensioning road to prevent deflection. The TREMIX surface vibrator
leaves a concrete surface within the tolerance region of IRC-58.
Vacuum dewatering process:
The purpose of vacuum processing is the removal of surplus water forms the concrete to
provide quicker setting & earlier maximum strength properties. Vacuum dewatering takes place
immediately after the screeding operation.
Upon the surface of the wet concrete is placed a filler pad consisting of two layers. The bottom
layer is contract with the concrete is the fine nylon cloth to act as filler. The upper layer consists of a
special type of plastic net & acts as a water duct. Finally the top cover consisting of a light plastic
sheet is placed over the filler pad projecting slightly outside on all sides. The border of the top
cover rests directly upon the wet concrete to produce an airtight seal.
The suction met is connected with suction houses to a vacuum pump. the normal atmospheric
pressure in the pump is reduced by 90% & 90% of the atmospheric pressure compresses the concrete.
Concrete is submitted to a pressure of Air
pressure .1N / mm2
Depression .01N/mm2
94 | P a g e
= Effective pressure .09 N/ mm2
This pressure of about 9000 kp/m2 compresses the concrete &compacts the aggregates. At the
same time the excess water which not necessary for the hydration process of the cement is
extracted from the concrete & consciously discharged with the air.
Apart from normal compaction through vibration, static compaction takes place during
vacuum dewatering with ensuring reduction w/c ratio. The initial w/c/ ratio is reduced by 10 to
20%. This explains the noticeable improvement s of the concrete properties achieved through
vacuum dewatering.
Vacuuming time is about 1 to 2 min. per cm concrete thickness depending on the particle shape in
the mix. M250 One vacuum pump with two suction met can dewater 50 to 60 m2. A 20 cm thick
concrete slab takes about 30 min. dewater. Accordingly a normal daily production rate is about 400
m2.
