Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fair-faced concrete, specifically to a construction process for reducing surface porosity in fair-faced concrete and water-reducing concrete. Background Technology

[0002] At present, improving the surface quality of concrete components is an important prerequisite for high-quality concrete engineering. Appropriate pouring and vibration processes and concrete materials that meet the specifications and service environment can avoid common defects such as honeycomb, pitting, delamination and efflorescence. However, fair-faced concrete has higher requirements for its surface quality. Fair-faced concrete has a decorative function, and in addition to requiring surface flatness, it also requires that surface pores be minimized.

[0003] Traditional methods mainly optimize materials and vibration processes, including:

[0004] (1) Add defoaming agent or add defoaming component to water-reducing agent;

[0005] (2) Use self-compacting or self-leveling concrete;

[0006] (3) Use an attached plate vibrator to enhance the removal of air bubbles from the concrete surface.

[0007] However, the most commonly used method (1) is liquid-phase modified silicone polyether defoamer or defoaming component, which usually increases the cost by RMB 15-20 per cubic meter of concrete, which is relatively high. In addition, some polycarboxylate superplasticizers and defoamers have poor compatibility and cannot be used at the same time. Method (2) has a more significant increase in cost and is usually used in special parts such as floors and running tracks. Method (3) has the lowest cost and better effect, but it is only suitable for large surfaces. For complex, irregular, densely reinforced structures or parts, the plate vibrator cannot achieve the effect of removing surface pores. Moreover, due to reflected waves, resonance and other reasons, it may even locally aggravate the accumulation of pores and affect the appearance of concrete.

[0008] As for the surface treatment methods of concrete after demolding and hardening, these are mid-to-late stage treatment and repair processes. In essence, they are designed to address the problems that occurred when the concrete material was poured and formed before hardening. Therefore, the methods to improve surface quality should be based on solving the root causes of the problems, especially for fair-faced concrete projects that emphasize self-finished finishes.

[0009] However, current methods for reducing porosity still suffer from problems such as unstable porosity reduction and high costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method that can directly reduce the porosity of fair-faced concrete while treating only the concrete surface. Summary of the Invention

[0010] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a construction process and water-reducing concrete for reducing the porosity of fair-faced concrete surfaces, so as to solve the problems that current methods for reducing porosity still have issues such as unstable porosity reduction and high cost.

[0011] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0012] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a construction process for reducing porosity on the surface of fair-faced concrete, the construction process comprising:

[0013] A water-reducing agent is sprayed onto the surface of the template after it has been coated with template paint. Then, concrete is poured, cured, and demolded in sequence to obtain fair-faced concrete.

[0014] The construction process provided by this invention improves the surface properties of water-reducing concrete by placing the water-reducing agent between the formwork agent and the water-reducing concrete, rather than adding it into the water-reducing concrete, thereby reducing the porosity of the water-reducing concrete surface and ensuring that the water-reducing concrete has an excellent appearance.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the template for applying template paint includes: a template obtained after applying template paint and drying for 20-40 minutes.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the water-reducing agent has a water reduction rate of ≥25%.

[0017] Preferably, the water-reducing agent has a bleeding rate of ≤70%.

[0018] Preferably, the air content of the water-reducing agent is ≤6%.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the solid content of the water-reducing agent is 8-12%.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dosage of the water-reducing agent is 12-15 mg / L. 2 / kg.

[0021] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the concrete pouring is completed within 12 hours after the spraying is completed.

[0022] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the spraying method includes one of air spraying, high-pressure spraying or brushing.

[0023] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the working temperature of the concrete pouring is 0-30℃.

[0024] The vibration methods used in concrete pouring include internal vibration and / or external vibration.

[0025] Secondly, the present invention provides a water-reducing concrete, which is obtained by using the construction process for reducing surface porosity of fair-faced concrete as described in the first aspect, wherein the pore density of the water-reducing concrete is ≤10⁸ m³ / s. -2 Pore ​​area density ≤ 2.316 cm³ 2 / m 2 .

[0026] Compared with existing technical solutions, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] (1) The dosage is calculated based on the concrete area, and the cost is much lower than that of using defoamer.

[0028] (2) It is a pretreatment before pouring, which can take into account complex, irregular, and densely reinforced concrete structures and parts.

[0029] (3) No additional equipment is required, and the short-term cost investment is far lower than that of the attached plate vibrator.

[0030] (4) Using the construction process provided by this invention, the pore density of the resulting water-reducing concrete is ≤10⁸ m³ / s. -2 Pore ​​area density ≤ 2.316 cm³ 2 / m 2 Attached Figure Description

[0036] To better illustrate the present invention and facilitate understanding of its technical solutions, typical but non-limiting embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0037] This embodiment provides a construction process for reducing porosity on the surface of fair-faced concrete, the construction process including:

[0038] A water-reducing agent is sprayed onto the surface of the template after it has been coated with template paint. Then, concrete is poured, cured, and demolded in sequence to obtain fair-faced concrete.

[0048] In this invention, m 2 / kg refers to the contact area between concrete and formwork per square meter. 2 A certain amount of water-reducing agent is sprayed onto it.

[0049] The concrete pouring shall be completed within 12 hours after the spraying is finished. For example, it can be 12h, 11h, 10h, 9h, 8h, 7h, 6h, 5h, 4h, 3h, 2h or 1h, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within this range also meet the requirements.

[0050] The spraying method includes one of air spraying, high-pressure spraying, or brushing.

The distribution of pore size and pore area on the concrete surface was statistically analyzed using photography and image processing software.

[0091] Table 1

[0092]

[0093]

[0094] As shown in Table 1, the solution provided by this invention, by applying polycarboxylate superplasticizer, improves the fluidity of the cement paste on the formwork side during concrete vibration, making it easier for the cement paste to flow at the interface and level during vibration. This results in higher surface smoothness at the interface with the formwork paint, smaller and fewer pores, and even smaller and fewer pores on the concrete surface after demolding. Excessive use of both polycarboxylate superplasticizer and formwork paint diminishes their effect on reducing pores on the concrete surface, significantly increasing costs. Therefore, the recommended dosage for efficient use of both the formwork paint and the sprayed polycarboxylate superplasticizer is defined as the inflection point where pore density and pore area density gradually decrease with increasing dosage.
