The rubber product used in this expansion joint began to tear away from the joint, creating a trip hazard for pedestrians. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The old material was peeled out of the joint. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the old material was removed, the surface of the exposed joint needed to be sandblasted in preparation for the application of the Belzona. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because pedestrians were still using the area, the crew put up a blast booth around the blasting area to contain the dust. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A dust bag was also utilized to further reduce the amount of dust created by the blasting. |

The joint was sandblasted to finish cleaning and to provide a good surface for the Belzona 2221 MP Elastomer to adhere to. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The concrete area was filled in. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Belzona 4111 Magma Quartz was used to repair the concrete around the joint. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Belzona 2221 MP Elastomer was then poured into the joint and allowed to cure. |
