[Super Soil Construction Case] A2 Case of Backfill Material for Retaining Walls on Soft Ground
Super Sol L2
This is a case of road repair work for the Heisei 21 fiscal year repair bond No. 6 in Hita City, Oita Prefecture.
We would like to introduce a case study of the construction of "Super Sol," an artificial lightweight material made from crushed and sintered waste glass, used as a raising material in kitchens. In road widening construction, lightweight fill materials are typically not used behind precast L-shaped retaining walls. However, due to occurrences of overturning on soft ground, Super Sol lightweight fill material was adopted as a countermeasure. After construction, there were no instances of overturning or sinking. 【Construction Case Study】 - Project Details: FY 2009 Improvement Bond No. 6 Road Repair Work - Usage Category: Civil Engineering / Backfill for Structures / Retaining Walls - Client: Oita Prefecture - Construction Location: Hita City, Oita Prefecture - Required Performance: Lightweight and reduced earth pressure For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

"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.
