What is Polymeric Reinforcement for Stone and Soil Structures (PolyShot)?

Today, shotcrete or polymeric reinforcement is widely used for strengthening and preventing erosion in stone and soil structures. Vertical walls of trenches are vulnerable to erosion during excavation. Finding an appropriate solution to enhance a structure’s resistance against erosion, earthquakes, and other natural forces is a major challenge for contractors and builders. Recent advancements in methods and materials have brought innovative solutions. Among these technologies, PolyShot (reinforced polymeric reinforcement) has gained significant attention due to its lower cost compared to traditional methods like sprayed concrete. Various structures are being reinforced with PolyShot by numerous specialized companies. Mandana Polymer is a leading producer of high-quality reinforced polymeric reinforcement, utilizing the latest technology in earthquake engineering and structural enhancement. The mechanical and chemical resistance of PolyShot against environmental impacts makes it an ideal solution for the erosion of stone and soil.

Preparation and Recommendations Before Applying PolyShot

• Clean the target surface before application.
• Do not apply PolyShot in temperatures below 15°C or during rainy days.
• For temperature control before application, contact Mandana Polymer consultants.
• Avoid storing PolyShot materials in temperatures below 5°C.
• Ensure that all layers are applied consecutively within one or two days, avoiding long intervals between layers.

Application Method for PolyShot

Materials Used:

Steps for Application:

• Apply a special primer evenly over the entire surface using a brush or spray method. Use 150 grams of primer per square meter.
• After applying the primer, apply the second layer of PolyShot reinforced fibers over the primer. Allow the primer to dry for 3 hours at 25°C.
• Once the second layer is dry (usually 4 hours at 25°C), apply the third layer of PolyShot.

Note: PolyShot application at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C requires more drying time.
