It can be used in: Superficial repairs on different elements, Stabilization of talus, protection of excavations, for the hard-to-reach structural elements, covering of tunnels, etc.
● Does not require wall-ties for its placement.
● It can be impacted onto any type or shape of surface, including vertical or overhead areas.
● Reduction in construction time and cost.
● High level of cohesion.
● Maximum aggregate size can be of up to: 20mm.
● Resistance levels, similar to those obtained on conventional concretes, can be reached.
● Meets the requirements established in Norms NMX-C-155 and NMX-C-403 of the Complementary Technical Norms of the G.D.F.
