Effective solutions against soil desiccation

In order to stabilize the building, the owner trusted URETEK^®, the benchmark for 25 years in the field. She used her Deep Injections process^® which consists of injecting exclusive expansive resin under the foundations and under laser control in order to fill any voids present under the foundation and to recompact the foundation soil of the foundation, thus delaying and limiting the seasonal hydration cycles / dehydration of treated clay soils and therefore the risk of shrinkage / swelling. Beforehand, holes were made through the foundation from the outside at the bottom of the walls of the house and then 18 mm diameter injection tubes were introduced into the ground allowing the resin to be injected under the foundations up to '' at a depth of around 2,50 m and this 30ml.

Subsequently, slab slippage was resolved using the URETEK process^® Floor Lift on a surface of 35 m² with injections under paving to a depth of about 0,7 m. The resin was injected through 6 mm diameter cannulas inserted at the tiling joints so as not to damage it. The objective is to raise the collapsed areas of the paving to their initial position.

At the end of the operations, all the holes due to the holes were filled in so as not to leave any trace of the site.

In only 2 days, the soil was consolidated and the structure stabilized. Guarantee of quality, URETEK^® was the first company to obtain a technical opinion from CSTB for a soil improvement process (ATEC n ° 3 / 15-796).
