6.2 Procedure of execution for industrial slab

a. The support area is verified for differences of level. If the conditions are not satisfactory, the
works will be remade and another verification will be done. It is important to obtain a slab with a
constant thickness.

b. The compacting degree must be of approx. 98% and the linear deformation modulus Ev2 must be
minimum 125 MN/mm2 with a ratio Ev2/Ev1 ≤ 2.2. These characteristics are verified through tests
performed by a special laboratory. In case these requirements will not be complied with, the
compacting will be remade. In case the earthworks tests correspond to the specifications the next
step can start.

c. The polyethylene layer is placed on the ground to stop the leaking of the “slurry” and to allow the
small displacements of the concrete in this same step. The foil is glued around the walls and
around the poles to protect them from the concrete drops during the paving finishing.

d. After placing the polyethylene foil, the reinforcement (Ø6 200X200 mesh) can be placed in the
inferior side of the slab, supported on separators of h=40mm. The net will be overlapped 20 cm
longitudinal and transversal. The area that is going to be cast will be delimited with a metal cast
made of buttons with surfaces between 800-1500 sqm.

e. Before the proper casting, a marginal belt of 10X200 is glued on the marginal framing and around
the poles, with the purpose of reducing the tensions (that can lead to cracks) that form in the cast
panel, poles and between the marginal framing. After these works, the cast of C20/25 concrete
with a composition of minimum 300 kg of cement/m3 can start. The additional reinforcements will
be done during the concrete cast, 3 independent bars on each corner. The level of concrete will
be controlled with the help of the Laser Screed technology, and at the sides with the depth
vibrator.

f. After the concrete starts the chemical reaction, (depending on the temperature and humidity
conditions), the abrasion works and application of the surface hardener can start. A double
helicopter with Ø150 propeller is used, with disk for the application of the surface hardener. At the
edges and on the poles, a simple Ø60 helicopter is used. Rocland Qualidur type surface
hardener in a quantity of 3.5kg/m² is applied. The abrasion with a double helicopter with disk is

performed again in order to mix the hardener with the concrete to obtain a single mass. At the
edges and on the poles, a simple Ø60 helicopter is used. In the end the abrasion is made with
helicopters with no disks (with leaves), until a plane and polished surface is obtained. The
standard that specifies the tolerance of an industrial paving is STAS 18202 table 3 line 4. To
ensure favourable hardening conditions and to reduce the contraction bending the concrete
humidity will be maintained by applying ROCURE acrylic sealer of approx. 100 ml/m2 which
reduces the water evaporation from the concrete composition and reduces the risk of cracking
the concrete slab. The sealer is sprayed in equal quantity on the entire surface of the concrete
slab.

g. Cutting of contraction joints is made according to the joint cutting plan, in order to induce and
control the cracks. The joints will be usually cut at a depth of 1/3 of the concrete slab depth. The
supporting poles of the building structure will be framed by a square with sides at an angle of 45.
The joints will be temporarily filled with PVC braid and after 30-90 days, they will be sealed with
RINOL PU 925 type polyurethane mass.

h. The entresol paving will be reinforced with Ø8 200X200 mesh to ensure a more efficient
reinforcement, supported on metal separators with a concrete coverage between 1.5-3.5 cm. The
mesh will be overlapped longitudinally and also transversally by 20 cm. The concrete class used
is C20/25. Before casting the concrete panel, a marginal belt will be placed on the side of the
walls of 1 cm to diminish the tensions that occur between the cast panel and walls. Surface
hardener will not be applied on the paving surface (Quart). The connection between the old over-
concreting and the new one will be done by introducing hanger bolts of OB L=0.5 m Ø14 in the
old paving, at a frequency of 0.5 m, leaving the mobile component in the old paving and the fix
part in the new one.

i. The cap with be cast as floating between the over-concreting panel and the balancing cap will be
a foil layer. The reinforcing will be done by polypropylene micro-fibres with a dosage of 0.9 kg/m3.
The working joints will be cut immediately after the concrete allows it.

j. The paving around the office area will be reinforced with only one layer of Ø6 200X200 mesh
supported on h=110mm separators. Before casting the concrete panel, a line of marginal belt will
be placed on the side of the walls of 1 cm to diminish the tensions between the casted panel and

walls.

k. The exterior platform: Before starting the cast, a polyethylene foil layer will be placed to stop the
leaking of “slurry” from the concrete. In the areas that connect to the marginal frame of the hall a
marginal belt will be used. The concrete class used at the exterior platform will be BCR 4.0 with a
thickness of 20 cm. The casts will be delimited by metals casts with OB37 Ø16 hanger bolts from
50 to 50 cm to create the best connection between casts. After the concrete starts the chemical
reaction (depending on the temperature and humidity conditions), the works for polishing the
surface will be performed with a double 150 helicopter to open the concrete pores. Rocland
Qualidur type surface hardener in a quantity of 1.5kg/m² is applied. The polishing is performed
again with a double helicopter with disks to mix the hardener with the concrete and to obtain a
single mass. At the edges and slopes, simple Ø60 helicopters will be used.

NOTE: All works related to the industrial slab, which were covered in this quality assurance
procedure, will be performed after a conducted inspection by HIT which will be prompted by all
the necessary documentations by INCONTRO. One inspection will be done for each separate
work, after which the method of doing the work will be considered as approved and the works
will proceed without any delays.
