5. Environment
5.1. Cleaning Tools / Equipment
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardenedmaterial can only be removed mechanically.
5.2. Waste Disposal
Do not empty surplus material into drains; dispose responsibly throughlicensed waste disposal contractor in accordance with legislation andlocal / regional authority requirements. Avoid runoff onto soil or intowaterways, drains or sewers.
FOR DETAILED INFORMATION REFER TO THE MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET
6. Preparation
6.1. Concrete
The horizontal concrete substrate shall be in a good sound condition and free fromdust, loose material, surface contamination and materials which reduce bond.Concrete surfaces shall be generally level (within tolerances) and shall not be laid to agradient, so grout flows to the lowest end.
6.2. Pre-Wetting Substrate
Concrete surfaces shall be saturated with clean low pressure water a minimum 2hours before application ensuring that all pores and pits are adequately wet. Thesurface shall not be allowed to dry before application of the grout. Remove excesswater prior to application, and ensure there is no standing water on the surface. Thesurface shall achieve a dark matt appearance without glistening and surface pores andpits shall not contain water.
6.3. Formwork
Formwork shall be clean and fixed in place as soon as possible after the substrate hasbeen prepared. If required, release agents shall be applied to the formwork before
placing into position. Do not contaminate the substrate with the release agent andreduce bond of the grout material from spillage or run-off.
Openings in the formwork shall be protected to prevent ingress of debris orcontamination. Formwork shall be watertight and free from obstructions to allow thefree flow of grout. Formwork shall be designed to allow air and water bleed to escape.
In the case of a long base plate, ensure there is enough pressure head to help the flowof the grout. Divide into sections if necessary and apply the grout in more than onestage.

7. Mixing
Mixing shall always be carried out in accordance with the recommendations containedin the latest product data sheet (PDS).
Do not use water beyond the stated maximum and minimum limits.
In determining the mixing ratio the wind strength, humidity, ambient and substratetemperature and shall be taken into consideration.
For best results only mix full bags
7.1. One Component Products
8. Application
The product and system shall be appropriate for the type of substrate, structure andexposure conditions which they are required.
8.1. Before Application
Working space shall be clean and tidy with no obstructions.
Record the substrate, ambient temperature and relative humidity. Checkpot life information on bag or in the product data sheet and allow forclimatic conditions e.g. high / low temperatures & humidity.
External applications shall be adequately protected. Do not apply groutin direct sun, windy, humid or rainy conditions, do not apply grout if thereis a risk of frost within 24 hours in unprotected areas.
Make sure blow holes are not obstructed and can allow the escape ofair.
Calculate the required volume for the application. Using the equation insection 10 of this method statement, calculate the consumption of theproduct and make sure there is enough material on job site for the work.
Product Procedure
Sika® MonoTop®
Place minimum recommended water ratio in mixingcontainer.
Progressively add powder whilst mechanicallymixing using low speed (maximum 500 rpm)electric drill.
Add more water if required to suit the desiredconsistency and flow properties but not exceedingmaximum dosage. Mix in total for minimum 3minutes or until the material is homogenous.

8.2. Pouring Application
Grout shall be poured immediately after mixing into prepared openings(within 15 minutes to optimise expansion properties). Make sure airdisplaced by the grout can escape easily.
Pour the grout through the “mouth” of the formwork allowing thematerial to flow to the opposite end. Always maintain sufficient
pressure head while pouring. Ensure a process of continuous pouring to avoid airentrapment and prevent the grout flow from coming to a stop before the groutingoperation is completed.
Keep pouring until the grout is up to the top of the base plate. This will force thematerial to the underside of the baseplate and achieve an effective bearing areawithout any voids. Always pour grout from opposite ends to any blow holes.
Never grout from two places on the same application as it will be difficult to determine
if the entire void under the base plate has been filled.
Depending on the size of the application, it may be necessary to “rod” the grout with athick chain help the grout flow.
Keep any visible and exposed grout surfaces as small as possible and protect frompremature drying by curing with an appropriate method.
Do not vibrate the formwork.
8.3. Curing
Protect the fresh material from premature drying. Cure exposed area with propercuring methods for 3 days or spray with appropriate curing compound once the groutstarts to stiffen. Suitable curing covers include jute and water, plastic sheets or othersuitable membranes.
8.4. Application Limits
Do not apply a grout as a patch repair or overlay in unconfined areas (horizontal,free applications)
Avoid application in direct sun and/or strong winds.
Do not add water over the maximum recommended dosage.
Always check the material’s pot life and adjust for climate conditions.Temperature of the repair mortar and substrate shall not differ significantly.

10.Addit ional Guidance
The following applications offer further guidance in specific situations.
10.1.Grouting in Conf ined Spaces
Use a sloping channel or chute to convey grout to a lowerlevel. Avoid the free fall of the material to preventsegregation of the aggregates.
Maintain a constant flow of grout during application. Applygrout only in one corner making sure there is adequatespace around the application for release of air.

10.4.Grouting Large Areas
Large horizontal application areas may be subdivided into smallermanageable areas to reduce extent of application and also reducepotential cracking. Proposals shall be agreed with the supervisingofficer or qualified engineer before work proceeds.
10.5.Grouting Thick Applications
The application thickness of SikaGrout® can be increased with the addition of moreaggregate.
* Information to be adapted for local use
This technique only applies for applicationssubject to compression forces e.g. underbase plates and machine bases.
Pre-testing of the modified material shallbe carried out first to determine anacceptable construction method togetherwith new material mechanicalperformances.
Aggregate can be added after the waterand powder have been mixed together.This shall be mixed slowly again to a good
consistency taking care not to aerate the material. No additional water shall be addedto the mix.
The flow behaviour of the material will be affected with the addition of more aggregate.These new characteristics shall be taken into account when using this technique on job site. For example the overall size of the application, ambient and substratetemperatures and variations in local products will affect the overall maximum layerthickness.
Layers may be built up on top of one another to increase the overall constructiondepth. The first layer shall be hardened and exothermic reaction of the materialcompleted. The 1st layer shall be at ambient temperature before applying the second
layer.

11.Yield and Consumption
11.1.Yield
The yield of a product can be determined from the following equation (assuming nowastage). When calculating the required consumption on job site allow an additional10% of material to maintain pressure head on the grout flow. Remember to calculatethe required volume to the top of the base plate.
Equation: yield (litres) = (weight of powder (kg) + weight of water (kg))density of mixture (kg/l)
Given: weight of water 1 litre = ~1 kg
Example:
Calculate consumption of a bag weighing 25 kg mixed with 3.2 litres of water, whenthe density of the fresh material is 2.3 kg/l.
1 bag of 25 kg yields: (25 + 3.2) = ~12.3 litres of grout 2.3
Therefore, the number of bags required for 1m3 of grout will be:
No of bags required per 1m3 = (1/yield) x 1000
(1/12.3) x 1000 = ~81 bags
11.2.Consumption
Consumption of a product can be calculated as follows:
Calculate how many kg of powder is required to cover a 30 mm thick application overan area 2 m2 (assuming no wastage)
Weight of mixed mortar (kg) = volume (m3) x density (kg/m3)= (2 x 0.030) x 2300
= 138 kg (total)Less weight of water;
If water to powder mixing ratio = *12.0% then;
Required weight of powder = 138 x (100-12.0)/100
= ~ 121 kg powder (or minimum 5 x 25 kg bags) * refer to PDS for exact figure
