Preguntas frecuentes

Concrete Canvas^® (CC) es la Estera Compuesta Cementosa Geosintética (GCCM) original y el primer producto que declaró su conformidad con la norma ASTM D8364 «Especificación estándar para GCCMs». Es un geotextil flexible relleno de hormigón que se endurece al hidratarse para formar una capa de hormigón fina, duradera e impermeable. Esencialmente, puede describirse como Hormigón en Rollo^® y se utiliza para una amplia variedad de aplicaciones, incluido el revestimiento de diques de contención secundarios para controlar la erosión, suprimir las malas hierbas, proteger contra los daños de los animales y reducir el mantenimiento.

• Sufficient CC to complete the project including allowance for edge fixings, overlaps
• Suitable lifting equipment to dispense CC Bulk, Batched or CC Wide Rolls
• Safety mask and gloves
• Cutting equipment, utility knife or disc cutter
• Metal or plastic fixing pins and lump hammer
• For jointing CC: Screwdriver, stainless steel screws and sealant or alternative approved method to join the CC layers. See the CC Equipment List for full details.
• For ordering, offloading and storage information, see the CC Logistics Guide for full details.
• Dust hazard. Wear appropriate PPE. Consult CC & CCH SDS

• Remove vegetation and grade the bund to a uniform profile to suit the design dimensions.
• Remove sharp or protruding rocks >25mm and fill large voids.

Consult the construction drawings to verify if special subgrade preparation measures such as minimum bearing capacity requirements, installation of a non-woven geotextile, or if subgrade drainage details are needed.

CC must be placed to ensure direct contact with the surface to prevent void space.

Overlaps must be shingled in the direction of water flow.

Use stainless steel screws and sealant or alternative approved method to join the CC layers.

Ensure the CC is fully saturated. Spray the fibre surface multiple times until the CC is fully saturated.
