Lightweight glass foam material S2
Construction Case: Paving Repair Work in the Niigata Management Office Area of the Ban'etsu Expressway. Correction of road bumps on the highway, simple construction with standard heavy machinery, shortened construction period, and reduction of subsidence.
Lightweight glass foam material is a porous lightweight foamed material made from recycled waste glass, used in lightweight embankment construction. In the civil engineering and construction fields, it takes advantage of its lightweight properties to reduce settlement in embankments and road level corrections on soft ground, alleviate wall pressure in retaining wall backfill, and reduce loads on underground structures. It can also be utilized as a mixed lightweight soil using excavated soil generated on-site. There are numerous delivery records, primarily for public works by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and various prefectural 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 circular society. Lightweight glass foam material is an eco-mark product (17 131 006). - Features ○ For civil engineering, it is a gravel-like porous body ranging from 2 to 75 mm. ○ Easy construction with compaction using standard heavy machinery. ○ 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. It can also accommodate 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.
