VeriShield Grout
For use with VeriShield Modular Radiation Shielding
Formulation Precision for Module Compatibility
VeriShield Grout represents a sophisticated dry blend of aggregates intricately formulated to align seamlessly with the densities of Veritas VeriShield V150, V220, V250, and V300 shielding modules. It serves a pivotal role in the structural integrity of VeriShield radiation shielding installations, specifically in infilling structural bond beams and bearing plates. This specialized grout is strategically designed to be mixed with Portland cement, enhancing its utility in various construction applications.
Environmental Stability and Resilience
A distinguishing feature of VeriShield Grout lies in its ability to maintain volume stability under diverse environmental conditions, be it wet or dry. The grout showcases exceptional resilience, effectively resisting cracking or delamination arising from factors such as compressive loading, impact, lateral thrust, high heat, or continuous vibration. This resilience ensures the sustained structural integrity of radiation shielding installations over time.
Integral Role in Radiation Attenuation
Moreover, VeriShield Grout goes beyond its role as a mere structural filler; it acts as a critical component in the overall radiation attenuation system. The grout consistently exhibits radiation attenuation and physical properties that closely mirror the densities of the corresponding VeriShield modules. This synchronization ensures that the entire shielding system functions with optimum effectiveness, providing a reliable and uniform performance across the installation.
