Terrazzo
Terrazzo workers create attractive walkways, floors, patios, and panels by exposing marble chips and other fine aggregates on the surface of finished concrete or epoxy-resin. Much of the preliminary work of terrazzo workers is similar to that of cement masons. Attractive, marble-chip cementitious terrazzo requires three layers of materials. First, cement masons or terrazzo workers build a solid, level concrete foundation that is 3 to 4 inches deep. After the forms are removed from the foundation, workers add a 1-inch layer of sandy concrete. Before this layer sets, terrazzo workers partially embed metal divider strips in the concrete wherever there is to be a joint or change of color in the terrazzo. For the final layer, terrazzo workers blend and place into each of the panels a fine marble chip mixture that may be color-pigmented. While the mixture is still wet, workers toss additional marble chips of various colors into each panel and roll a lightweight roller over the entire surface.
Epoxy
A synthetic resin derived from petroleum products that can be cured by a catalyst or used to upgrade other synthetic resins to form a harder, more chemical resistant film.
Cracking and Joint Repairs
Splitting of a coating film, usually as a result of substrate movement or aging. Cracks in concrete are unplanned “natural” joints.
Shot Blasting
Abrasive blasting with round iron shot, or any material, which retains its spherical shape, for peening purposes.
Membranes
Membrane waterproofing systems are designed to provide a flexible watertight coating bonded directly to the substrate (frequently with the use of a primer).
