MasterEmaco® T430 repair mortar is a one-component high-performance cementitious product. It produces high early strengths at a wide range of temperatures and can be placed into service for standard rubber-tire traffic in as little as 6 hours. MasterEmaco® T430 is specially suited for hot-weather applications when an extended working time is required.

Yield

One 55 lb (25 kg) bag of MasterEmaco® T430 mixed with the required water will cover approximately 9.6 ft2 (0.9 m2) at a 1/2" (13 mm) thickness or approximately 0.40 ft3 (0.011 m3). With an extension of 55% aggregate, 3/8" in size, the yield is approximately 0.58 ft3 (0.016 m3).

For estimating purposes, 46 bags of MasterEmaco® T430 plus 1,380 lbs of clean, coarse 3/8" SSD aggregate yields approximately 1 yd3 (60 bags of MasterEmaco® T430 repair mortar plus 820 kg of 9.5 mm SSD aggregate yields approximately 1 m3).

How to Apply - Surface Preparation

CONCRETE

1. Perform surface preparation in compliance with ICRI Technical Guideline No. 03730 “Guide for Surface Preparation for the Repair of Deteriorated Concrete Resulting from Reinforcing Steel Corrosion.”

2. Remove all unsound or delaminated concrete, providing a minimum of 1/4" (6 mm) substrate profile and 3/4" (19 mm) clearance behind corroded reinforcing steel.

3. Sawcut the perimeter of the area being repaired to a minimum depth of 1" (25 mm) to prevent feather edges. Do not cut the reinforcement.

4. After removal of concrete but before placement, mechanically abrade the concrete surface to remove all bond-inhibiting materials and to provide additional mechanical bond. Do not use a method of surface preparation that will fracture the concrete. Verify the absence of microcracking or bruising in accordance with ICRI Guideline No. 03732.

5. Unless a bonding agent will be used, presoak the prepared concrete surface to a saturated surface-dry (SSD) condition.
