Curing times
Ideally, a traditional screed surface should be left for a week before any foot traffic thus ensuring the longevity of the floor. By adding reinforcing Polypropylene fibres to the mix it is possible to produce high strength screeds with compression strength in excess of 30 Nmm2
This will also minimise shrinkage & cracking whilst curing, as well as reducing permeability of the surface and thus making it fracture resistant. Additional strength can be gained by laying the screed over with d49 steel reinforcement fabric wrapping mesh.
