Viskobeton
Viskobeton
is Betonsa’s self-compacting concrete product. This exceptional
product spreads out and settles into every point among
most compact reinforcements and most confined sections
without disintegrating, not necessitating any vibrator
or skewer compacting. Viskobeton does not require any vibration
application, thanks to its self-compacting feature and
saves labor and time by eliminating all the adverse effects.
Furthermore, the elimination of the noise factor facilitates
concrete castings to be carried out at urban centers, particularly
during nighttime. Viskobeton additionally provides extremely
smooth surfaces, even in most problematic and intricate
molds, owing to its high liquidity and cavity-filling ability,
and brings about esthetic and architectural options for
mold design. Since Viskobeton is also self-leveling, it
enables that horizontal members’ surfaces are given their
final form by means of a simple finish, not requiring tedious
surface correction procedures.
Besides its high strength,
Viskobeton is an extremely impermeable concrete that is
also durable and resistant
to external/outdoor effects, due to its nonporous structure,
in spite of its liquidity. Viskobeton can be used in; reinforcing
projects, compactly reinforced members, urban construction
sites, esthetical mold designs, problematic and intricate
molds, and places where it is not possible to use vibrators.
Drabeton
Drabeton is a Betonsa concrete product with steel wire
reinforcement. It is produced by using Dramix steel wires
at Betonsa Ready Mixed Concrete facilities. It is taken
care that the steel wires are distributed uniformly and
safely on each direction of the concrete, including the
edges and the surface. Thus, a three-dimensional reinforcement
is achieved through Drabeton. Consequently, this concrete
resists complex loadings and also crack risks are reduced
significantly. In mesh reinforcement applications, positioning
the reinforcement in the correct place is practically
complicated. In Drabeton, steel wire reinforcement is
uniform in all
directions. Construction time and labor costs are reduced
by means of Drabeton, since there is no need for any
additional reinforcement. Drabeton furthermore brings
in cutbacks in labor in design, drawing, measurement, cutting, welding,
warehousing, placing and inspection phases, when compared
with traditional reinforcement. Floor thicknesses are
reduced
by use of Drabeton. Accordingly, total costs reduce.
Drabeton increases flexibility. The energy absorption
capacity of
the concrete floor increases; consequently the lifetime
of the floor prolongs. Crack control is facilitated,
since
the steel reinforcement is dispersed (uniformly) throughout
the concrete cross section. Cracks attributable to temperature
variations and uneven hardening processes are avoided.
Steel wires assume the role of a bridge over cracks inclined
to grow and prevent them from growing. Consequently,
the durability of concrete improves. It exhibits great
resistance to dynamic loads and shock effects. It is practical to
achieve concrete floors with wider beam opening by means
of Drabeton. Places of use of Drabeton might be listed
as; concrete floors, screed and protection concretes,
concrete
open areas, factory floors, parking lots, concrete highways,
gas stations, stock areas, seamless concrete floors,
cold storage floors, floor screeds, concrete toppings,
coverings
at ports, and shipyards.
Dekobeton
Dekobeton
is a decorative floor covering material system designed
for interior or exterior spaces. It is a printed concrete
technology product that gives the impression of individual
stones laid as a wood, brick, natural stones and mosaic.
The printed concrete technology joins beautiful outlook
with easy application. The printed concrete sector is
in use particularly in the US since a long time, and
has been increasing its market share each year by 25
%. The sector has a strong growth potential in Turkey
as well.
Betonsa’s Dekobeton branded printed concrete can be applied
in assorted colors and patterns and looks like natural
stones such as granite. Dekobeton does not cave in and
it provides a non-skid and stain-proof surface. Dekobeton’s
colors do not fade away. Dekobeton carries the “new technology that respects traditional and culture” feature, thanks to its “old and used”
appearance created by the application of antique effect
chemical on its surface. Some places of use of Dekobeton
are; garden arrangements, parks, poolsides, urban recreation
areas, environmental landscaping, lanes, marinas and
piers, shopping centers, parking lots and gas stations.
