Lightweight Fill: Lightweight Glass Foam Material S2 for Disaster Recovery Work
Lightweight glass foam material S2
Construction Case: Slip Prevention Work. Disaster recovery work due to the Chuetsu Earthquake, utilized for backfilling of the tension retaining wall, shortens construction period, and is optimal for reducing soil pressure in landslide-prone areas!
Lightweight glass foam material is a porous lightweight foamed material made from recycled waste glass, used for lightweight embankment construction. In the civil engineering and construction fields, it leverages its lightweight properties to reduce settlement in embankments and road elevation corrections on soft ground, alleviate wall pressure behind retaining walls, and reduce loads on underground structures. It can also be utilized as a mixed lightweight soil using on-site generated soil. There are numerous delivery records, primarily for public works by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and various prefectural and municipal governments, including highways and private projects. Since lightweight glass foam material is made from waste glass bottles, it does not leach harmful substances, complies with soil environmental standards, and contributes to a recycling-oriented society. Lightweight glass foam material is an eco-mark product (17 131 006). - Features ○ The civil engineering type is a gravel-like porous body ranging from 2 to 75 mm. ○ Easy construction using standard heavy machinery for compaction. ○ Excellent drainage even during compaction. ○ Lightweight and easy to handle, with no preparation curing period, allowing for shortened construction time. ○ High flexibility at the construction site, making it possible to work even with distorted terrain or buried pipes. Capable of handling large projects. ○ Can be combined with other lightweight materials. ○ Eco-mark product (17 131 006). For more details, please contact us or download the catalog to view.
