[Super Sol Construction Case] Example of Lightweighting on the Rooftop of a Water Distribution Facility
This is a case study of the construction of a protective net facility at Front Town Saginuma.
We will introduce a case study of the construction of the artificial lightweight material "Super Sol," which is made by crushing and sintering waste glass to create a lightweight aggregate. This case involves the lightweighting of the rooftop of a water distribution facility in Kawasaki City, where the rooftop has been utilized as a futsal court (artificial turf). Super Sol was adopted for the installation of a protective net. It was used to reduce the load on the facility and improve drainage for the futsal court. The construction process was carried out in the following order: Super Sol application → leveling → crushed stone application → compaction. 【Construction Case Study】 - Construction Details: Installation of a protective net at Frontown Saginuma - Usage Category: Civil Engineering / Structural Protection / Existing Structures - Client: Private - Construction Location: Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture - Required Performance: Lightweight, load reduction, drainage For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Company information
"Super Sol," made by crushing and sintering waste glass, is a lightweight material with countless holes, forming a porous structure. It is an artificial lightweight stone with an irregular shape and a particle size of 2 to 75 mm. There are products with varying specific gravities and water absorption rates to suit different applications. Composed of soil components, it is an eco-friendly product with an eco-mark. **Features of Super Sol:** - **Lightweight:** It is 1/6 to 1/5 the weight of soil, with a proven track record as a lightweight fill material. By combining it with crushed stone, the unit weight can be controlled between 4 kN/m³ and 11 kN/m³. - **Drainage:** It can be used as a drainage material in civil engineering and greening projects. - **Aeration and Water Retention:** It can be used as an inorganic soil amendment for greening. - **Workability:** Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle, facilitating construction in uneven terrains and confined spaces. Like crushed stone, it can be installed through leveling and compaction without the need for curing periods or special techniques. - **Stability:** Being mineral-based and inorganic, it is physically and chemically stable, with no corrosion. - **Safety:** As it is made from naturally derived glass, Super Sol is composed of soil components, making it a highly safe material for the surrounding environment.
