GROUND COMPACTION - URETEK Deep-Injection

KEY BENEFITS

Benefits of URETEK Deep-Injection

Cost-effective
Fast and cost-effective alternative to piling and underpinning. Added cost savings of minimal attendant damage, probably zero effect on commercial operations and no relocation or temporary accommodation needs. Particularly evident in inaccessible situations, such as inside buildings.

Work completed promptly
The set-up time, injection procedure, curing time and cleanup is significantly shorter than with other traditional repair methods. Time requirements are reduced from weeks to days or hours.

Minimal disruption
No demolition, excavation or construction - so little noise and no water or mess. Commercial operations can usually continue around URETEK, even inside. No need to remove machinery, shelving, racking or stock. In domestic situations, the occupants usually do not need to vacate the premises.

Minimal impact
No risk to adjacent structures, as there is no vibration and no weakening of support. Injection holes, usually less than the diameter of a coin, cause minimal damage to floors and paving. With no excavation and only hand equipment employed, landscape is relatively unaffected.

Superior structural characteristics
Unique technology provides up to 500% increase in bearing capacity, immediately effective and verifiable. Can compact a specific, isolated weak layer, at depth, without excavation. Does not introduce rigid, differential foundation support.

Flexibility
URETEK Deep-Injection can be limited to the improvement of inadequate ground bearing capacity or it can be used to lift part of a building or the entire structure.

It can be applied under floors, walls, column pads, strip footings and raft foundations made from concrete, brick or stone, in a variety of soil conditions. Particularly relevant to Heritage buildings.

Fast cleanup
With no excavation, there is no surplus spoil to cart away from the site. Cleanup is simple and usually consists of a broom, dustpan and perhaps a hand vacuum.

Confidence
Based on substantial international experience, across of tens of thousands of varied projects, the material used in URETEK Deep-Injection carries a warranty of 10 years.
