Self Compacting Concrete
Designed by Mick George Concrete, MGC Flowcrete Structural is a uniquely designed, self-compacting, free flowing Concrete.
MGC Flowcrete Structural: Self Compacting Concrete
MGC Flowcrete Structural provides contractors and housebuilders with a high-performance solution that is compliant to the revised NHBC regulations with respect of concrete toppings to block and beam ground floor slab construction systems, as an over-site application.
It can be utilised in all forms of ground support slab construction for residential, office and industrial buildings. The fluidity of MGC Flowcrete Structural ensures it completely fills an area in a homogenous matrix with extreme ease of application, adding superior strength.
BBA Certified Fibres
A macro polymer and micro polyolefin fibre blend that is European Standard EN 14889-2: 2006 compliant and has been specifically engineered and manufactured in an ISO 9001:2008 certified facility.
Self Compacting Concrete Benefits & Performance
| Reduced Cracks & Shrinkage | Improved Impact & Abrasion Resistance |
| Limited Compaction / Mechanical Finishing Required | Fluidity for up to 2hr’s |
| Increased Durability | Ease of Application |
| Pumpable Reinforcement | Foot Traffic After 24hr’s |
| Time Savings & Less Labour Intensive | Strength Classes: C28/C35 |
MGC Flowcrete Mix
The proprietary mix design is a blended cement combination denoted as CIIB-S giving good ease of placement attributes all year round and is designed to maintain fluidity for up to 2 hours, with light foot traffic optional after an initial 24hr period.
Nominal maximum aggregate size of 10mm. Typical slump-flow to SF2 classification, C28/35 strength denotation, as a proprietary concrete mix design.
Self Compacting Concrete Applications
Designed to be poured directly into place or, by other conventional means such as skip, crane, pumping, or machine bucket to areas of difficult access .
Please note: Use of dumper is not advised as it increases likelihood of segregation in transit.
MGC Flowcrete should not be placed in times of exceptional cold or hot weather due to interference with initial set, hardening and maturity.
Full compaction will be achieved by the correct application, using other methods could hinder performance.
See Self Compacting Concrete Pour
As with any concrete product, it is essential to cure MGC Flowcrete Structural – any failure to do so will result in loss of performance.
We recommend a minimum 90% efficient curing agent is applied to the concrete after dappling whilst the concrete is still fresh.
Except in cases where rapid access to paving is required, curing should continue for at least 3 days.
