Manufacturer: 90mm Cordek Cellcore HXS®

This anti-heave solution functions as a protective barrier beneath reinforced concrete floor insulation slabs, reducing ground heave effects by limiting the transfer of upward forces through the structure.

The 90mm Cordek Cellcore HXS Grade 9/13 board has been engineered and tested for concrete depths up to 300mm, guaranteeing reliable performance under specified conditions.

Key Attributes:

1. Reduces upward force transmission to the structure from ground heave.
2. Available in multiple profiles and grades for different project requirements.
3. BBA certified for quality assurance and performance reliability.
4. Meets NHBC Technical Standards, confirming compliance with industry requirements.
5. Verified by BRE Global with Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) credentials.
6. Precision-moulded construction ensures consistent, high-quality results.
7. Optional Filcor insulation integration available as permanent formwork for ground beams or passive gas venting.
8. Backed by patented technology for enhanced performance benefits.

Our standard range includes various depths and grades suited to typical soil heave conditions and concrete thickness combinations. Specialist variants are available for pile caps, ground beams, or applications requiring integrated insulation, permanent formwork, or gas venting systems.

Applications

The 90mm Cellcore HX S range protects reinforced concrete floor slabs from upward forces caused by ground heave effects.

Usability

For concrete thicknesses between 1220mm and 2000mm, further grades of Cellcore are available. For further advice please contact the InsulationBee Technical Team on 02038839057 / 02038839057.

Design Notes

1. Each 90mm Cellcore hxs grade is calibrated to support a specific concrete thickness, plus an allowance for live loads of 1.5 kN/m², whilst maintaining minimal creep compression over a 16-hour curing period. This is defined as the "SAFE LOAD."

2. When the predetermined load limit is reached, the polystyrene legs of the 90mm Cordek panels will buckle and fail as underlying ground movement occurs, referred to as the "FAIL LOAD."

3. During design, ensure the slab, beam, or pile cap is sized to handle the difference between its weight and the fail load, as shown in the design examples provided.
