Cellular Concrete pumping based out of Fresno, CA
Applications
01
Pipe Abandonment
Cellular concrete is used to fill and seal abandoned pipes, preventing collapse and ensuring structural integrity. This method is especially useful for abandoning long sections of pipe. The cellular concrete fill prevents future settlement and stability issues.
02
Annular Space Grouting
Cellular concrete is used to fill the gap between pipes and surrounding soil or structures, providing stability and preventing settling. The low pumping pressure and heat of hydration of cellular concrete make it an ideal material for this application. This helps prevent damage to adjacent structures.
03
Tunnel Grouting
Cellular concrete is used to fill voids and provide structural support in tunnel construction and rehabilitation projects. Its low viscosity and high flowability make it ideal for pumping long distances through small diameter pipes. This ensures a complete and consistent fill.
04
Lightweight Flowable Fill
Cellular concrete is used as a lightweight fill material for applications such as embankment fills, foundation fills, and other areas where weight is a concern. Its low density reduces the load on underlying soils, preventing settlement and stability issues. This makes it an ideal material for filling large voids.
05
Backfilling MSE Wall Panels
Cellular concrete is used as a backfill material for MSE (Mechanically Stabilized Earth) wall panels, providing a stable and durable fill. Its lightweight properties reduce the load on the wall panels, while its good drainage properties prevent water accumulation. This helps ensure the long-term stability of the MSE wall.
06
Void Filling and Backfilling
Cellular concrete is used to fill voids and provide backfill for various infrastructure projects, such as utility trenches, abandoned pools, abandoned mines, and sinkholes. Its high flowability and low viscosity make it ideal for filling complex geometries. This helps prevent future settlement and stability issues.
