Euclid Chemical's AntiWashout Admixture, EUCON AWA-P2

Euclid Chemical's EUCON AWA-P20 anti-washout concrete admixture is ready-to-use and designed to modify the rheology of self-consolidating concrete and prevent the loss of cement and fine aggregate during the placement of underwater concrete, while not discoloring the concrete. Featuring thixotropic properties, it can also be used to reduce excessive bleeding and segregation of concrete or mortar during pumping.

Recommended for use with the PLASTOL line of polycarboxylate-based admixtures, EUCON AWA-P20 does not contain any added chlorides or chemicals known to promote the corrosion of steel. It also minimizes environmental impact by reducing concrete washout and eliminating the need for expensive de-watering during underwater construction.

EUCON AWA-P20 meets the ASTM C494 Type S standard specification for chemical admixtures for concrete applications, as well as the requirements of the CRD-C661-06 specification for anti-washout admixtures for concrete from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

EUCOSHIELD Finishing Aid Admixture

An integral finishing admixture, EUCOSHIELD is a ready-to-use liquid admixture designed to be used as an integral finishing aid that prevents rapid moisture loss from the concrete surface by binding the internal water in the pore structure. It is especially effective when concreting operations must be performed in direct sun, wind, high temperatures or low relative humidity. EUCOSHIELD can also be used to reduce excessive bleeding and segregation of concrete or mortar. Containing no added chlorides or chemicals known to promote the corrosion of steel, EUCOSHIELD is compatible with most other admixtures commonly used in concrete, including air entraining admixtures, polycarboxylate-based HRWR admixtures (superplasticizers), conventional water reducers and retarders.

Giatec's SmartHub Concrete Remote Monitoring System

Giatec Scientific Inc. Giatec's SmartHub remote monitoring device works in conjunction with the company's SmartRock wireless sensors for accurate concrete temperature, temperature differential, and strength monitoring. With this system, concrete temperature and strength data collected from your SmartRock wireless sensor is automatically synced to your mobile device, eliminating the need for you to be on the jobsite. Giatec says this combined technology can reduce labor costs and speed up a project by days, even weeks.

With the SmartHub, data can be collected remotely, eliminating the need to be on the jobsite to monitor the hardening of concrete. This allows users and their teams to not only optimize their project schedules by eliminating unnecessary time, money, and labor costs associated with collecting and analyzing concrete data, but also take advantage of the upgraded plug-and-play feature for effortless installation.

The SmartHub device works by automatically collecting concrete data recorded by wireless SmartRock sensors and uploading it to the Giatec 360 cloud via LTE connection where it is synced via the SmartRock app.
