- Self Levelling (Unique Additives)
- Strongly resist penetration from impacting objects
Steel as a structural element provides:
- Self compacting minimising the need of vibration equipment
- Increased acoustic dampening properties compared to toughened glass with the integration of a thicker interlayer
Strength. Toughness. Ductility. Weld-ability. Durability.
- Easily placed - Reduced labour - Enhanced workability - Excellent early strength CONCRETE COMPOSITION - White Portland Cement - Crushed Coral (Sand) - White Granite Aggregate - Plasticiser additive Percentage by weight when cured = between 2,250 2,400 kg/m3 = 6% Water, 14% Cement, 80% Aggregate
