Reversible stirring mechanism! A highly reliable deep mixing treatment method that can adapt to a wide range of soil conditions.
The "Ascolam Method" is a technique that involves adding a slurry-type cement-based solidifying agent to in-situ soil while mixing and stirring the soil and solidifying agent using a stirring mechanism that rotates both clockwise and counterclockwise. After penetrating to a specified depth, the rod is withdrawn while continuing to stir, thereby forming a homogeneous soil-cement column underground. Due to its excellent features, this method can be applied to a wide range of uses, including the improvement of soft ground, foundations, earth retention, and the construction of impermeable walls. 【Features】 ■ Stirring mechanism with clockwise and counterclockwise rotation ■ Elimination of the co-rotation phenomenon of soil clumps ■ Minimal variability in improvement ■ Applicable to a wide range of soil types ■ High verticality achieved ■ Low noise and low vibration *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

In the mid-1950s, during a period of construction boom leading up to the Tokyo Olympics, Asou Sangyo Co., Ltd. (now Asou Corporation) focused on the increasing demand for lightweight and labor-saving high-rise buildings. They recognized the advantages of using aerated concrete (air mortar), which excels in lightweight properties and thermal insulation, as insulation material, and established the company with the aim of manufacturing and constructing building-grade aerated concrete. The unique technology developed through research and development of imported technology from the United States, along with the excellent characteristics of their product (aerated concrete), matched the needs of the times. It was used for waterproofing on rooftops to reduce the weight of high-rise buildings, raising floor slabs on each floor, and embedding piping in mechanical rooms. Subsequently, the lightweight properties of aerated concrete attracted attention from various fields, leading to its adoption in numerous civil engineering projects, including the Tōkaidō Shinkansen construction. To date, the construction achievements have exceeded 10 million cubic meters, and the company continues to provide satisfaction to the times and society as a pioneer of air mortar and a technology development-oriented enterprise that responds to various needs.
