Design Considerations for Resinous Flooring SystemsThe succes

31、sful design, installation, and performance of a resinous flooring system depends on an evaluation of the existing surface conditions, the conditions of installation and the conditions of use. Each of these considerations will impact the selection of the surfacing system.4.1 Background Information on

32、 Concrete and Concrete Placement: Proper design and placement of the underlying concrete are essential to the proper performance of any resinous surfacing system. Detailed concrete and concrete substrate requirements are discussed at length by ACI 302.2R, ACI 364.1R, ACI 201.2R, ACI 546R; ICRI Guide

33、lines No. 310.1R, No. 320.1R and No. 310.2; and The Fundamentals of Cleaning and Coating Concrete, as well as a host of other standards and publications.Concrete is mainly a mixture of Portland cement, water, and mineral aggregate, usually sand and gravel. Sometimes additives such as fly ash and poz

34、zolans are used. The mixture cures and hardens by hydration. Water in the mix combines chemically with the cement to bind the aggregate into the rigid mass known as concrete. Although properly formulated and cured concrete is strong and rigid, it can be attacked both physically and chemically. Concr

35、ete is very strong in compres-sion but relatively weak in tension. It can and often does crack. Concrete is also fairly porous and subject to osmotic and capil-lary forces that absorb and release water. Absorbed water can freeze within the concrete and cause spalling and cracking.Strength-gain, wear

36、-resistance, and shrinkage properties of every concrete mix design are affected by the water-to-cement (w/c) ratio, normally expressed as the weight of mixing water per weight of cement. Concrete with a lower water-cement ratio gains more strength than concrete with a higher one, but such low ratios

37、 may be difficult to place and consoli-date properly because of the stiffness of the mix. Chemical admixtures (water reducers) are often used to increase work-ability of the concrete while keeping the water-cement ratio low. High water-cement ratios increase shrinkage cracking and reduce surface wea

38、r resistance and compressive strength.Approximately 200 grams of water for each 1 kilogram kg (0.20 pounds lb of water for each 1 lb) of cement is required for complete cement hydration. Roughly twice that ratio, or 400 grams of water for each 1 kg (0.40 lb of water per each 1 lb) of cement, is requ

39、ired for mixing, because additional water is absorbed on gel pore surfaces and the cement particles should all be wetted. More water may be added to enhance work-ability when placing concrete, but any amount in excess of 180 grams of water for each 1 kg (0.40 lb per 1 lb) of cement is not required f

The general mix design shown in Table 1 is an example of a mixture that will yield a suitable substrate. An excess of water increases shrinkage and contributes to the formation of cracks and continuous

41、capillaries in the hardened concrete paste. The capillaries become channels for moisture movement and for intrusive and harmful chemical solutions after the cured concrete is placed in service. Wet curing will minimize development of capillary channels. TABLE 1EXAMPLE OF GENERAL MIX DESIGNCementitio

44、ally important that the concrete be designed to accommodate the intended end use. The tensile strength of a concrete substrate is impor-tant in concrete design. The tensile strength of concrete is approximately 10% of its compressive strength. The failure of a concrete substrate due to low tensile s

45、trength can result in a failure of any flooring or surfacing applied over it. Resinous flooring materials manufacturers generally recommend the minimum tensile strength of the concrete substrate to be 1.4 MPa (200 psi), but prefer tensile strength to be 2.4 MPa (350 psi) or greater as measured per A

46、STM D7234.An effective concrete substrate should also be low in permeability and high in density. Water or liquid moves through concrete through small pores, or capillaries, in the form of vapor; always from an environment of high vapor pressure to low vapor pressure. Vapor pressure combines the eff

47、ects of temperature and humidity. In general, moisture migrates from warm, humid conditions to cool dry conditions. It is the move-ment of moisture vapor within the slabnot the total quantity of moisture within the slabthat creates subsequent problems with non-permeable floor surfacings. Excess resi

48、dual or free water not used in the hydration process of cement will continue to migrate out of the concrete until the moisture content of the cement reaches equilibrium with its environment. If the envi-ronment below a concrete slab is continuously wet, capillary action will pull liquid from below t

49、he slab into the slab, but moisture most frequently moves in concrete as a vapor driven by the differential in vapor pressure. As vapor is driven through the concrete, soluble alkali ions are transmitted with it and collect at the surface. When mois-ture cycles back into the slab, concentrating the ionic solution, crystals can form which can create enough force to disbond a resinous surfacing. If undetected, the combined phenomena of MVER (see Section 5.5.1) and ASR (see Section 5.3 ) will generally result in bond failure when concrete is used as a substrate ove
