Self-Consolidating Grout
Self-consolidating grout (SCG) is a highly-fluid and stable mix used in low lift and high lift grouting of reinforced concrete masonry walls. SCG is a self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mix that contains coarse aggregate with a maximum top size of 3/8 inches (9.5 mm). It also contains a Glenium® high-range water-reducing admixture and Rheomac® VMA viscosity modifying admixture, if needed. The mix has a slump flow (spread) of greater than 24 inches (610 mm).
SCG benefits the entire construction team including ready mix producers, masonry contractors, and masonry producers.
