On behalf of Wrexham Council, Specialist UK Restorations undertook concrete condition surveys including testing for carbonation depths and chloride content as per recommendation of EN1504. A large number of social housing properties had steel reinforced concrete window cills and concrete slabs as roof canopies, and over the years the steel reinforcement had corroded subsequently pushing the face of the cills away. Subsequent to the test results and our proposed repair and protection strategy, SUKR were appointed Principal Contractor on a 2 year framework agreement working directly for Wrexham Council. The framework was due to be run until December 2015, after this we were awarded an extension to 2018.
The specification consists of Sika MonoTop 610 bonding primer, Sika MonoTop 615 repair mortar, Sika Ferrogard 903+ corrosion inhibitor, Sikagard 550W Elastic protective coating, with all construction joints being treated with Sika Hyflex 250.
