Flexotraction Concrete

Designed to withstand the deformations caused by the flexural strength of an element. To achieve its particular characteristics, the right dosage of cement is applied and the aggregates are selected in accordance with their shape coefficient, flakiness index and degree of cleanliness.The formulation provides greater resistance to impacts and durability and reduces wear. When used for paving, its characteristics adapt to the requirements; flexural strength and abrasions. The planimetry is provided during its application to prevent the forming of puddles and facilitate circulation.

This concrete can be reinforced with structural metallic or polymeric fibres.

Field of application

  • Pavings and surfaces of roads, harbours,  airports and areas with high traffic density and repair work.
  • Surfaces required to withstand the movement of heavy goods vehicles that may be highly abrasive (airports, ports, industrial facilities, etc.).

Benefits

  • Greater durability.
  • Ability to withstand the movement of vehicles and loads.
  • Improved road/vehicle adherence.
  • Greater mechanical flexural strength.
  • A higher quality finish.
  • If required, it may be self-levelling, self-compacting and waterproof.
  • High resistance to surface wear.
  • Optionally, it can be coloured.
  • It can be used with a special wear-reducing aggregate.
  • Low maintenance cost.

Application and supply system

  • With a plastic consistency, it is applied by spreading machines.
  • With a soft or fluid consistency, it is applied by hand.
  • It’s a product that can be pumped.
  • It can be waterproofed by means of floating or applying epoxybased paint.
