SAES-Q-011 (Epoxy Grout for Machinery Support)

4. Modification to Process Industry Practice STS03601

> All components, resin, hardener, and aggregate shall be properly labeled, including batch numbers,
shelf life and storage requirements

> Grout shall be applied only when surrounding temperatures are between 15C a n d 32C unless
otherwise specified in the manufacturer's data sheets

> Expansion joints should be placed at approximately 1.2 m to 1.8 m intervals in the grout foundation

> A layered combination of non-shrink cement and epoxy grout may be used, as permitted
by SAES-Q-007 for large baseplates that have structural webs deeper than 230 mm

> If the grout pour is 100 mm or deeper, the grout manufacturer recommendations for installing
reinforcement rebars shall be followed.

> Testing
•Minimum sample frequency is one per shipment or per manufacturing lot of grout.
•Compressive strength and Linear Shrinkage

> Minimum Compressive Strength 80 Mpa (12,000 psi) at 7 days

> Maximum Linear Shrinkage : 0.080 percent

> Minimum Bond Strength of Epoxy Grout to concrete - 2,000 psi (14Mpa)
