Vertical strand tendons may require admixtures that make the grout thixotropic, to prevent excessive bleeding, which results from the filtering action of the strand. Grouting trials are recommended.

  • Mise en place du béton
  • Bétonnage
CONT

Les câbles posés verticalement peuvent nécessiter l'emploi d'adjuvants à effet thixotropique pour prévenir le ressuage excessif du coulis d'injection, résultat de l'action filtrante des torons. On recommande de faire des expériences préliminaires d'injection.
