FRCM reinforcement Kimitech BS ST system

Kimitech BS ST is used for structural and non-structural consolidations of r.c. elements and masonry. It is particularly suitable for reinforcing bent elements, improving shear resistance of beams, pillars and walls or create connection between masonry elements. Kimitech BS ST is a bi-directional basalt fiber reinforcement fabric specific for structural reinforcements; it is used with mortars of BASIC range to create structural consolidation of reinforced concrete elements, reinforced concrete. prestressed, wood and masonry.

Specification

Structural reinforcement or seismic retrofitting of masonry structures, equipped with CVT for FRCM systems. The process includes the following application phases: cleaning the substrate and, if necessary, reconstruction or smoothing the surface with a suitable mortar. Apply a first layer of Basic MALTA M15/F mortar from Kimia S.p.A. or a similar product. The maximum thickness per coat is 5 mm. The mortar must have the following characteristics: maximum aggregate size UNI EN 1015-1: 1.2 mm; apparent density of fresh mortar UNI EN 1015-6: 1900 kg/m3; compressive strength after 28 days UNI EN 1015-12: >15 N/mm²; flexural strength at 28 days > 4 MPa and will be CE marked as R2 mortar on the basis of UNI EN 1504-3 and as class M15 masonry mortar according to EN 998-2 and as GP CS IV internal and external mortar according to UNI EN 998-1. Installation of the Kimitech BS ST basalt fiber mesh with the following characteristics: density ρfib [g/cm³]: 2.67; tensile modulus [GPa]: 88.66; weaving: bidirectional; mesh size: 20x20 mm. Application of a further layer of the same matrix onto the fabric using a metal spatula and/or trowel, for a total reinforcement system thickness of 10 mm. The reinforcement system thus created has CVT, pursuant to point 11.1, case C, of the NTC 2018, according to the qualification procedures for reinforcement systems in point 3 of the “Guideline for the identification, qualification and acceptance control of inorganic matrix fiber-reinforced composites (FRCM) to be used for the structural consolidation of existing buildings”. The supply and installation of all the materials described above and anything else required for the finished work is included, excluding anchors to be calculated separately.
