4. PROCEDURES
[For temperatures above 5 °C (40 °F)]
Surface Preparation (Rock Surfaces): All surfaces to be in contact with MS-D3 X must be free from dust, oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated rock. Clean the area with potable water, leaving the substrate saturated but free of standing water (SSD).
Surface Preparation (Repair or Rehabilitation): All surfaces to be in contact with MS-D3 X must be free from dust, oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated concrete providing a roughened surface and a minimum of 25 mm (1 inch) clearance behind any corroded reinforcing steel. The perimeter of the repair area should be sawcut a minimum of 20 mm (¾ inch). Clean the area to be repaired with potable water, leaving the concrete saturated but free of standing water (SSD). Application: Apply MS-D3 X in accordance with the ACI 506 “Guide to Shotcrete” publication.
CURING
Curing is essential to optimize physical properties of the shotcrete and minimize plastic shrinkage. MS-D3 X should be cured immediately after material has reached initial set in accordance with ACI 308 “Guide to Curing Concrete”. Continuously moist cure for a minimum period of 7 days. Alternatively, moist cure for a minimum period of 24 hours and apply a curing compound that complies with ASTM C 309. Curing is particularly critical in rapid moisture loss conditions such as high temperatures, high winds and low humidity.
[For temperatures below 5 °C (40 °F)]
Use MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3
Surface Preparation (Rock Surfaces): All surfaces to be in contact with MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 must be free from dust, oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated rock. To avoid freezing of the interface between the shotcrete and the rock surface, do not pre-wet the receiving surface. Pneumatically remove any free standing or other fine particles that may interfere with the bond between MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 and the substrate.
Surface Preparation (Repair or Rehabilitation): All surfaces to be in contact with MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 must be free from oil, grease or any other foreign substances that may interfere with the bond of the material. Remove all loose or delaminated concrete providing a roughened surface and a minimum of 25 mm (1 inch) clearance behind the reinforcing steel. The perimeter of the repair area should be sawcut a minimum of 20 mm (¾ inch). To avoid freezing of the interface between the shotcrete and the rock surface, do not pre-wet the receiving surface. Pneumatically remove any free standing or other fine particles that may interfere with the bond between MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 and the substrate. Do not apply MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 when ambient temperature is below or is expected to fall below –5 °C (20 °F) within 6 hours following the application of shotcrete. Do not apply when temperature of receiving surface is below –5 °C (20 °F). Material temperature should be maintained above 10 °C (50 °F) at the time of application. Mixing water temperature should be maintained between 20 °C (70° F) and 25 °C (80 °F). Application: Apply MS-D3 X2 or MS-D3 X3 in accordance with the ACI 506 “Guide to Shotcrete” publication.
CURING
A resin based liquid membrane curing compound approved for use in cold weather conditions should be applied immediately after shotcrete reaches final set.

Aspiration Hazard
Can cause lung damage if aspirated based on human experience.
STOT (Specific Target Organ Toxicity) – Repeated Exposure
Causes irritation of the respiratory system. Respiratory tract injury has been observed. Respirable crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources is listed by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and National Toxicology Program (NTP) as a lung carcinogen. Prolonged exposure to respirable crystalline silica has been known to cause silicosis, a lung disease, which may be disabling. While there may be a factor of individual susceptibility to a given exposure to respirable silica dust, the risk of contracting silicosis and the severity of the disease is clearly related to the amount of dust exposure and the length of time (usually years) of exposure.
