Floor arrangement ACCORDING TO THE ENGINEERING SOLUTION FOR THE OBJECT: Moskvoretsky market
how we implemented this floor design
FOUND AN ECONOMICAL SOLUTION TO THE FLOOR ARRANGEMENT FOR THE MARKET
Other contractors offered the client a technology using reinforcing mesh. After a survey of the premises by a specialist of the PROFTEHPOL company and a detailed survey of the customer, it turned out that the loads on the floor would be insignificant and the reinforcement mesh for this project was not needed.
Therefore, we have proposed a fiber-concrete technology that is practically not inferior in terms of performance, while it is 2 times more economical.
ADVANTAGES OF FIBER-REINFORCED CONCRETE TECHNOLOGY
Fibro-concrete floor technology, unlike reinforced with reinforcement, has a number of advantages. A single armature works only for the bottom or only for the top; a double one will be a good blow to the wallet. The fiber works all over the base and in some respects surpasses the reinforcing mesh, namely:
- Increases the strength of concrete for bending, compression and splitting up to 35%.
- Increases impact and fatigue strength over 500%.
- Prevents delamination of concrete mix up to 25%.
- Reduces the time of primary and final hardening by up to 50%.
- Reduces the risk of chipping corners and edges up to 90%.
HOW WE CUT COSTS
Our proposed technology has reduced the cost by 25%, because fiber is cheaper than rebar. It significantly reduces the production time, because it does not need to be reinforced with a reinforcing mesh. At the same time, concrete is already supplied with fiber.
FLOOR ARRANGEMENT FOR THE MOSKVORETSKY MARKET
The difficulty of implementing this project was that we had to do the work without interrupting the work of the market. After agreeing on the stages of work with the client, we started implementing the plan with the acceptance of the concrete mix.
We made an appointment for a concrete reception for the evening of the middle of the week. Despite the fact that the market continued to operate normally, we completed the work on the installation of the concrete floor in one night, which we started in the afternoon.
THE RESULT OF OUR WORK
After completion of the work, the client received a high-quality concrete coating conforming to SNIP 2.03. 13-88, and a favorable offer that saved 77,100 rubles.
The stages of the floor arrangement and the final result are shown in the photo below.
