Descripción |
IKEA first entered Malaysia with an outlet in a shopping mall in 1996, then moved into a standalone store in the suburb of Mutiara Damansara in 2003. This was the biggest IKEA store in Asia at the time. It has been so successful that this iconic home-furnishing retailer decided to open its second Malaysian outlet in the Kuala Lumpur suburb of Cheras. The new building is a 3-storey commercial complex with a 2-storey basement car park. When building the complex, the project managers paid very close attention to the quality of the concrete for the basement, ground and first floor slabs; including the workability of the fresh concrete, the strength grade, and minimal formation of cracks. The following Mapei admixtures were used for the concrete mix design: DYNAMON FLOOR 2 MY, admixture for improving workability and slump retention, which is manufactured and distributed in the Malaysian market by Mapei Malaysia; MAPECURE SRA 25 curing admixture to reduce hydraulic shrinkage and the formation of micro-cracks; EXPANCRETE expansive admixture for controlled-shrinkage concrete; MAPEFIBRE NS12 mono-filament, virgin polypropylene fibres; MAPEFIBRE ST 42 MY fibres for increased tensile strength and ductility, and control of plastic shrinkage cracks, which are manufactured and distributed in the Malaysian market by Mapei Malaysia. Mapei admixtures were supplied for producing 1,500 m3 of concrete for approximately 10,000 m2 of floor slabs. |
