1.4. Admixture
To increase the concrete resistance to acid:
o Fat Pit and Effluent Pond.
Admixture is a SIKA product:
o SIKAFume, with a dosage of 5% cement weight.
o SIKAment-LN, with a dosage of 1% cement weight
Prior to concrete pouring, the Contractor must
perform concrete trial mix with both types of admi
xture to determine the required water content. This
trial mix must be supervised and approved by the
Owner and it shall be used as a standard for the
next mix design.
