  • Check out the videos on the CSC Screeding Channel?

    All the best.

  • bad screeders dousnt even now that the pressure of the pump is to high it dousnt send the screed smoothley

  • @speknek360 Thanks for the comments. The water is adjusted to facilitate trowelling and can further vary dependent on the sand from varying pits. We have been screeding for 23 years and carry out some of the biggest projects, such as Dublin Airport Terminal 2. I'm sure the screeder knows what he's doing.

  • you can see all the clips flying around. and dont see any body replacing the pipes back with a tacker gun. .i know you cant keep your bagging away from the floor its impossible. but protecting it a bit more with some protection sheeting helps

  • Thanks for the comments. We screed approximately 100,000sm per year over UFH and have not encountered any problems. Our operatives do take care with protecting the pipes and tacker guns are present to tack a pipe back if dislodged.

  • the screed is to dry. thats why it wont go through the baggings. also when its kicking through the baggings it moving the under floor heating pipes and causing them to kink. wich weakens the pipes. also instead of holding the baggings. he should be removing all the loose baggings away. as to not damage any more pipes. and where he has a jday joint there is no wire

  • The screed is adjusted to facilitate trowelling and must be careful not to have a too high water cement ratio as increased shrinkage could result. There are no kinks in the pipe as the UFH pipes are clipped to the floor. Our screeders are provided tacker guns, so if a clip is removed, we can easily relace. I would like to see how you think our pipe could not contact the UFH pipes? Djoints can be treated either by wire reinforcement or an SBR slurry mix.

  • Iav been labouring to floor screeders since i was 15 pumping etc....And i have to say its a hard job. respond to people talking about lack of speed the screed is coming in at.. (1) the screed looks dry (2) Maybe 50 meters of pipe on? (3) shit pump? lol anyway i think its a credit to all the hard working screeders out there, but stop killing us men on the pump! lol 100 square meters would be plenty in a day :D lol

  • doyou havemore of those videos vind it kinda interesting its my job to here in belgium like to see it when they do it in other countrys on different ways thanks

  • ok little comment to pressure on the maschine is to high :p

    that thing jumps less pressure more water and it comes slowly into the room without destroing or move the pipes its advise this is my work ^^ in belgium

  • I am a floor screeder myself - UFH pipes are a complete nightmare with a screed pump pipe - one of the best methods is to have the pipes tied down to D49 Mesh to prevent them moving, however, this is time consuming for the UFH contractor and is this system is rarely used.

    Give me a pile of ready mix and a wheelbarrow on ground floor UFH installations anyday.

    All in all the screeder on this video is doing a great job!!

  • you wont get better screeders than these guys
