Planitop HPC from Mapei is ideal for repairing and strengthening of concrete structures.Planitop HPC is an ultra high performance shrinkage compensated free flowing high ductility fibre reinforced cementitious mortar with stiff steel fibres for restoring and repairing concrete. Areas up to 40 mm thick can be cast without using reinforcing steel; for thicker areas, it is possible to use suitable reinforcement steel.ApplicationSeismic upgrading of elements subjected to high stresses where high ductility is required.Structural strengthening by cladding reinforced cement pillars and beams.Repairing the lower spigots on pre-compressed viaduct beams.Reconstructing and levelling off the upper parts of pulvinos and bearing elements of piles for motorway.Viaducts.Reinstating floor slabs after removing deteriorated areas by scarifying.AdvantagesLow weight and stiffness increase; high fire resistance; high adhesion on concrete; fire resistance. Advantage over carbon fibre applications system Fire resistance system, which in place of carbon fibre, needs to do extra protection. It can increase more flexure strength than carbon fibre system. It can increase more compressive strength than carbon fibre system. (Communication by the management of the company)
