Why should you choose MainMark for Soil Stabilisation Solutions ?

Written by Mainmark Ground Engineering (UK) Ltd.  »  Updated on: November 14th, 2024

In civil engineering and construction, soil stabilization is an essential procedure that improves soil stability, strength, and durability. In the absence of stabilization, constructions might eventually move, sink, or become dangerous. In addition to strengthening the ground beneath roads, buildings, and other infrastructure, soil stabilization lengthens its lifespan by lowering the possibility of ground movement and settlement.

Leading ground engineering company Mainmark provides cutting-edge soil stabilization solutions that increase foundation stability and safety in various soil types.

What is Soil Stabilisation?

The process of changing the characteristics of the soil to increase its carrying capacity, decrease its permeability, and stop erosion is known as soil stabilization. To strengthen the soil, this procedure usually entails the use of binding chemicals or the application of mechanical techniques. Among the most popular techniques for stabilizing soil are:

Chemical Stabilisation: Involves adding chemicals to the soil, such as cement, lime, or compounds based on polymers, to increase its strength and decrease its fluidity.

Mechanical Stabilisation: This creates a denser, stronger foundation by using physical techniques like compacting the soil or adding aggregate materials like sand, gravel, or reclaimed concrete.

Geosynthetics and Geogrids: To improve soil stability, especially in regions that are vulnerable to erosion or settlement, these substances might be added.

Why is Soil Stabilisation Important?

Stabilizing the soil is crucial for both economic and safety reasons. Serious problems include wall cracks, slanted floors, foundation cracks, and structural damage that can result from unstable soil. Builders can avoid future problems and increase the structure's durability and safety by stabilizing the soil before construction.

Mainmark’s Soil Stabilisation Solutions

Mainmark builds sturdy, long-lasting foundations for infrastructure and structures by using cutting-edge soil stabilization processes. These are a few of the main strategies Mainmark uses:

Resin Injection: Expanding polyurethane resins are used in Mainmark's unique resin injection methods, such as the Terefil® and Uretek® procedures, to stabilize soil. To improve density, the soil is compacted and cavities are filled by injecting resins that expand inside the earth.

Permeation Grouting: Using this technique, a solid, compact base is created by injecting cementitious or chemical grout into the soil. It works well in sandy soils or places where water seeps in because the grout fills in the spaces and solidifies, strengthening the soil.

Micropiling: Mainmark provides micropiling for operations requiring a high load-bearing capability. Small-diameter piles called micro piles are pushed into the earth to strengthen and maintain structures. They perform effectively in confined spaces or on uneven terrain.

Benefits of Mainmark’s Soil Stabilisation Services

Mainmark’s Soil Stabilisation Services offer multiple benefits:

Long-Term Stability: Mainmark's solutions assist stop future settling and shifting by strengthening soil and boosting its load-bearing capacity, guaranteeing long-term stability for structures.

Cost-Effective: Mainmark can stabilize soil using creative methods that eliminate the need for expensive and intrusive excavation. This prevents extended construction downtime and lowers project expenses.

Environmentally Friendly: Resin injection is one of Mainmark's minimally invasive and eco-friendly techniques. They are perfect for delicate sites because they use fewer resources and don't use harmful chemicals.

Quick and Efficient: Mainmark's cutting-edge techniques for stabilizing soil enable quick deployment with little disturbance to the surrounding environment. Projects in inhabited or developed locations where downtime must be minimized would particularly benefit from this.

Applications of Mainmark for Soil Stabilisation 

Soil Stabilisation can be applied in various scenarios, including:

Residential Buildings: By stabilizing the ground beneath houses, problems like wall cracks, uneven flooring, and subsidence can be avoided.

Commercial and Industrial Facilities: In commercial settings, stabilizing the soil lowers the chance of ground moving and helps support large loads.

Infrastructure Projects: Soil stabilization helps roads, highways, bridges, and airports stay secure, strong, and operational for many years to come.

Slope Protection: Soil stabilization can strengthen slopes and stop landslides, erosion, and soil movement in places with hilly or sloping terrain.

Conclusion

By offering strong foundations for infrastructure and structures, Mainmark's soil stabilization solutions guarantee lifespan, safety, and peace of mind. This is particularly important in areas with loose, sandy, or clay-rich soils, which are more likely to shift or settle.
