Injection Grout - Alofix-MC
Injection Grout - Alofix-MC
Alofix-MC is an inorganic grouting material composed of ultra-superfine particles, and as a grout has excellent permeability, strength and durability. It is suitable for sealing and/or stabilising sandy soil foundations, and especially for grouting soils for permanent structures such as foundations, tunnels, dams, oil tanks etc.
Typical Applications
- Preventing settlement of roads and embankments to be constructed on weak ground
- Preventing heaving and boiling embankments inside cofferdams
- Stabilisation of soil in zones susceptible to landslides
- Remedying and preventing differential settlement of oil tanks
- Fixation and water sealing in fractured zone during tunnel construction
- Curtain grouting for dams and embankments
- Ensuring leak-tightness of retention dykes around oil tanks
- Stabilisation and sealing of work faces in shield tunnelling and pipe insertion work
- Water sealing of joints on water and sewerage mains
Advantages
- No soil polluting properties - consists entirely of inorganic materials ensuring no pollution of underground water or soil.
- Remarkable penetrating abilities - the average particle size of Alofix-MC is 4 microns with a grain size distribution finer than 12 microns. The specific Surface Blaine fineness of 8150 cm?/g, enables penetration comparable to chemical grouts.
- High hardened strength - the ultra fine grains of the AlofixMC are chemically activated, so that curing provides rapid hardening to a high strength. This initial hardening is followed by further hardening during an extended period.
