[Super Sol Construction Case] A2 Case of using L4 for backfill material of the quay wall
Super Sol L4
This is a case of the Nago Fishing Port 4.5m quay improvement project in Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture.
We would like to introduce a case study of the construction using "Super Sol," an artificial lightweight material made from crushed and sintered waste glass, as backfill material for a seawall. In the coastal protection project, Super Sol L4, which has a specific gravity of 1.1 and is lighter than gravel or crushed stone but sinks in water, was adopted. Initially, other lightweight fill materials that sink in water were included in the design, but Super Sol was chosen due to its ease of compaction and resistance to material change, based on its slaking rate and crushing characteristics. 【Construction Case Study】 - Project Details: Nago Fishing Port - 4.5m Seawall Improvement Project - Usage Category: Civil Engineering / Structural Backfill / Seawall - Client: Okinawa Prefecture - Construction Location: Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture - Required Performance: Lightweight and reduced earth pressure 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.
