Soil Stabilization Inspectors and Consulting

Maintaining the integrity of the ground under and around a project is vital for safety, structural stability, and keeping in regulation with building codes. Understanding the soil composition and ways to create a dense foundation that will remain in place requires the work of a trained engineering firm that knows local soil makeup, permit requirements, and the best solutions. Securing the foundation and base for regular operations, new construction, and excavations is the primary objective for soil stabilization consultants.

Why Stabilizers Are Necessary

  • Strengthen loose ground
  • Lift sagging concrete slabs
  • Support cracking foundations
  • Provide waterproofing
  • Create a sturdy road
  • Protecting for excavation crews
  • Develop strong sub-bases for warehouses and factories that cause regular vibrations
  • Longer life of the road
  • Fewer construction costs
  • Add load bearing capabilities
Understanding Soil Stabilization

Many methods for strengthening the ground are available for use. Sometimes, the soil composition dictates the fix, but there are fillers, fabrics, and more that our technicians can use to stabilize the area under and around foundations. Kagaoan Engineering has professional expertise and experience in all aspects of soil stabilization. We may use one, or any combination of the following based on the exact needs of your project:

Types of Soil Stabilizing Products on the Market
  • Cement - a chemical reaction between the soil and the cement create a strong bond
  • Grout - silicate use is typical in this method allowing for strong vertical walls during digging
  • Lime - contractors use various amounts depending on soil composition to create an impervious road or foundation; useful alone or with other binding agents
  • Bitumen - asphalt and tar applications
  • Electro-osmosis - helps create drainage in sub-bases that need to redirect groundwater
  • Geotextiles - fabric reinforcement that may use metal bands to add strength
  • Green binders - environmentally safe polymers and binding products
Environmentally Helpful Forms of Binding Tough Bases

Many ground strengthening products on the market help protect the environment like enzymes and tree resins. Synthetic polymers, fiber reinforcements, sodium chloride, and ionic stabilizers are other items available for use as green technology in construction, road repair, and foundation safety. Polymer products are safe to use and provide more binding power than other stabilizing products. Some of these polymers only require one application for long-term use, saving businesses thousands of dollars in road repairs.

Applications Using Soil Stabilizing Methods

Construction projects need a tough road for vehicles to travel on when going to and from the job site. Since heavy equipment will travel over the road, a sturdy yet durable option is necessary during the build. Maintaining a good entry and exit for heavy machinery will save costs and keep supplies moving in and out of the construction zone with ease.

While roads are a highly common use for soil stabilizers, shoring up shifting foundations and creating safe working conditions are other uses for cement, grout, and fabric binders. For instance, a business that has a problem with sandy soil that moves when groundwater flows under the structure can benefit from cement or grout binding agents that solidify the sandy soil and create a stronger base for the building.

Excavation projects often require stiff vertical walls to protect workers and equipment from cave-ins. Creating these walls is easiest with the use of chemical elements that cause a reaction with the soil and strengthen the area around the dig site.
