Macro Synthetic Fibre
TUF-STRAND SF is a patented polypropylene / polyethylene macro synthetic fibre successfully used to replace steel fibres, welded wire mesh and conventional reinforcing bars in a wide variety of applications.
TUF-STRAND SF fibres comply with ASTM C1116, Standard Specification for Fibre Reinforced Concrete and Shotcrete, and are specifically designed to provide equivalent tensile and bending resistance to conventional reinforcement requirements. Concrete reinforced with TUF-STRAND SF will have three-dimensional reinforcing with enhanced flexural toughness, impact and abrasion resistance and will also help mitigate the formation of plastic shrinkage cracking in concrete.
Dosage rates will vary depending upon the reinforcing requirements and can range from 1.8 kg/m³ to 12 kg/m³. TUF-STRAND SF synthetic macro-fibres comply with applicable portions of the International Code Council (ICC) Acceptance Criteria AC383 for synthetic fibres, are UL certified for composite metal deck construction and are recognised within ACI 360 and SDI/ANSI-C1.0 as an alternative reinforcement.
Features:
• Equivalent strengths to Welded Wire Mesh (WWM) and rebar provided by engineering calculations
• Controls and mitigates plastic shrinkage cracking and reduces segregation and bleed-water
• Provides three-dimensional reinforcement against micro and macro-cracking
• Reduces equipment wear, fibre rebound and increases build-up thickness compared to steel
fibres for shotcrete applications
• Increases overall durability, fatigue resistance and flexural toughness
• Reduction of in-place cost versus wire mesh for temperature / shrinkage crack control
• Easily added to concrete mixture at any time prior to placement
• Tested in accordance with ASTM C 1399, C 1550, C 1609
• Applicable for design by ACI 360 R-10
• Certified for use by UL/ULC for D900 and F900 Series metal deck assemblies as alternate to WF
