Geotechnical: PU based resins

Polyurethane (PU) based injection resins can be used for permeation grouting, soil reinforcement, soil consolidation, soil waterproofing, slab lifting, void filling and anchoring.

Polyurethane (PU) based injection resins are a type of material commonly used in construction and civil engineering applications. These resins are highly versatile and can be utilized for various purposes, including:

Permeation grouting: This involves injecting the resin into the ground to create a barrier that controls the flow of water or other fluids. PU-based injection resins are ideal for this purpose, as they can permeate through soil and fill voids, creating a stable and waterproof barrier.

Soil reinforcement: PU-based injection resins can be used to strengthen soil, preventing soil erosion and improving the stability of the ground. This technique is often used in the construction of retaining walls, embankments and other structures that require strong and stable soil.

Soil consolidation: This involves injecting the resin into the soil to bind particles together, resulting in a denser and more stable soil. This technique is useful in preventing soil settlement and can also improve the load-bearing capacity of the ground.

Soil waterproofing: PU-based injection resins can be used to create an impermeable barrier that prevents the infiltration of water into the ground. This is especially useful in structures such as basements, tunnels, and other below-ground structures.

Slab lifting: This involves injecting the resin beneath sunken concrete slabs to lift them back to their original position. PU-based injection resins are highly effective for this purpose, as they can expand to fill voids and lift heavy loads.

Void filling: PU-based injection resins can be used to fill voids in the ground, which can be caused by soil erosion, settlement or other factors. This technique can help to stabilize the ground and prevent structural damage.

Anchoring: PU-based injection resins can be used to anchor structures such as bridge supports, railings and other types of infrastructure. This technique involves injecting the resin into the ground or a pre-drilled hole and then inserting a metal anchor or bolt, creating a secure connection between the structure and the ground.
