Using Ronafix Prepacked Screed – Ready to use mortar for laying floor screeds:

As soon as the mortar is mixed, it should be placed onto the wet/tacky primer, compacted, ruled and closed with a float or trowel. Avoid overworking the surfaces, this will increase the tackiness of the mortar. The float should be regularly washed, to prevent build up of polymer/cement paste. Ronafix Prepacked Wearing Screeds contain granite and may need to be polished and finished by final trowelling after placing.

Screeds and toppings with an overall thickness greater than the maximum depth per layer, 50mm approximately, must be placed monolithically (wet on wet) in more than one layer to ensure compaction. Each layer should be of approximately equal thickness and using the same mix design. To ensure satisfactory adhesion the lower layer(s) should be lightly combed, raked or roughened to provide a key for the next layer. Should intermediate layers dry, a priming coat must be applied between layers.

Joints should be formed in the floor screed/topping in line with expansion, contraction and movement joints and, on suspended floors, over support positions to accommodate movement. Isolation joints should also be placed around the perimeter of floor slabs and around columns, manholes and fixed bases. Joints should also be formed between any hot and cold areas of the floor. For further information refer to BS8204-3.
