Ground Improvement & Modification

Across the UK material types, classifications, and moisture contents vary quite significantly. This alongside the frequent risk of inclement weather conditions makes placing structural fill to performance specifications challenging to achieve necessary compaction and bearing capacities.

To combat the use of unsuitable site material soil modification and stabilisation is used as an eco-friendly and cost-effective method of producing durable structural layers that produce a high bearing capacity. The process involves the addition of binders to site-won material to reduce moisture content and maximise compaction and geotechnical performance.
