Methods of GEORESIN technology

DEEP STABILIZATION METHOD

INDIVIDUAL SELECTION OF MATERIALS AND TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS FOR A PARTICULAR PROJECT

DEEP STABILIZATION geopolymer injection method of GEORESIN’s technology is used to strengthen soils and to lift bases, wall foundations, and other infrastructure elements of buildings and constructions, which are deformed and subside due to geological processes, natural aging or errors in design and construction. This method can be used both for private houses and industrial facilities at different stages of construction, as well as during the operation of the facility without stopping the technological processes.

DEEP STABILIZATION is an innovative method that is based on the expansive action of a chemical reaction when two geopolymer components are mixed. Geopolymers are highly durable and resistant to dynamic loads and environmental influences.

THE DEEP STABILIZATION method involves the point injection of a two-component geopolymer resin into the soil thickness. As a result of a chemical reaction, the GEORESIN material expands up to 30 times, filling voids and removing moisture from pores. As a result of the chemical reaction, the material expands, thereby compacting the base soil, thus increasing its strength and stability. With the DEEP STABILIZATION deep injection method of GEORESIN’s technology it is possible to lift sagging parts of buildings and structures.

DEEP STABILIZATION can be used in the following cases:

• · lifting and strengthening the foundations of buildings and structures that have subsidence due to weak or unstable soil bases;
• · repair and reinforcement of bases of various industrial facilities, including factories, warehouses, and production halls;
• · lifting and strengthening of railroad tracks and roads, which have deformations and subsidence;
• · repair and strengthening of road and airfield beds, including asphalt and concrete pavement;
• · repair and strengthening of bridge and tunnel structures;
• · strengthening of dams, embankments, and other hydraulic structures to prevent subsidence and collapse;
• · strengthening and protection of pipelines against deformation and destruction due to subsidence.

METHOD ADVANTAGES:

• 1High accuracy and controllability. THE DEEP STABILIZATION method allows you to accurately control and regulate the lifting and strengthening of the base of buildings and structures, thus avoiding additional deformations and damage.
• 2Resistance to environmental impacts. Geopolymers are highly resistant to moisture, UV radiation, chemicals, and other environmental factors.
• 3High speed of work. DEEP STABILIZATION allows you to perform work in a short time, without interrupting production and restoration work.
• 4Economical efficiency. THE DEEP STABILIZATION method can significantly reduce the cost of repairing and strengthening the base of buildings and structures because it does not require a long time to prepare and carry out work, does not require disassembly and replacement of damaged constructions, and does not create additional costs for transportation of materials.
• 5Eco-friendliness. Geopolymers are environmentally safe materials, they do not contain toxic substances, do not pollute the environment, and do not create additional waste.

SLAB LIFTING METHOD

STABILIZATION AND LIFTING OF FLAT REINFORCED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION

SLAB LIFTING geopolymer injection method of GEORESIN’s technology is used to fill voids and lift sagging floor slabs.

SLAB LIFTING uses geopolymer materials that are injected under the floor slab to fill voids and level out the floor structure. Unlike DEEP STABILIZATION, which is used for deep injection and raising foundations of buildings and structures, SLAB LIFTING is used to lift and level flat structures. The maximum lifting height can be up to 30 cm.

The geopolymer injection process begins by drilling holes in a specific area of the floor. Then a special two-component geopolymer resin is injected under the slab, using aluminum packer tubes Ø12 mm. When the components are mixed, a chemical reaction occurs, as a result of which the material expands, thereby filling the void and raising the floor slab to a predetermined level. The lifting process is controlled by laser equipment. This method allows you to quickly and efficiently correct floor roughness without damaging the integrity of the floor.

SLAB LIFTING is used to correct uneven and settling floors in various types of buildings and structures, including:

1. 1. Residential buildings (apartment and private houses, cottages, villas).
2. 2. Commercial buildings (office buildings, shopping centers, restaurants, hotels, and other commercial facilities).
3. 3. Industrial buildings. This method can be used to correct uneven and unstable floors in production halls, warehouses, hangars, etc.
4. 4. Road surfaces. SLAB LIFTING can be used to lift road surfaces, and correct potholes and unevenness on roads and sidewalks.
5. 5. Aerodromes and parking lots. The method is used to level surfaces on aerodromes and parking lots to prevent damage to cars and other vehicles.

SLAB LIFTING can also be used when traditional methods of raising the floor are ineffective or impractical.

Method advantages

• 1SLAB LIFTING allows you to perform the assigned tasks with minimal interference in the floor structure, while the work is carried out without interrupting operations and production processes.
• 2High level of lift control (up to 1 mm). Complete restoration of the «slab-base» contact.
• 3The material is hydrophobic, it displaces water from the soil during the expansion. Resistant to vibration and dynamic loads.
• 4SLAB LIFTING is a more cost-effective solution than traditional methods of floor raising. This is due to the fact that this method does not require a significant amount of materials and does not require destructive work.
• 5Minimal impact on the environment.

COLUMN INJECTION

GEOPOLYMER PILES AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL SOLUTIONS

COLUMN INJECTION geopolymer injection method is used to strengthen the soil bases and create firm support for buildings, structures, and engineering systems on them. It is used in cases where it is necessary to increase the bearing capacity of the base soil, eliminate uneven subsidence, strengthen weak or damaged soil areas, and reduce the likelihood of future failures and deformations. Geopolymer piles are an excellent alternative to traditional methods of base reinforcement in difficult soils. THE COLUMN INJECTION method allows you to make a reliable foundation even in the presence of flooded and peat horizons. The technology allows you to work under the already-built house and is suitable for all types of construction.

This method consists in injecting a special composition into the base soil, which after polymerization forms a strong geopolymer column. In the course of work, injection pipes in kevlar shells are inserted into the soil to a depth of up to 6 meters, and a special geopolymer composition is injected into them. The encapsulated material then expands and hardens to form a pile. The cured material has a high load-bearing capacity and increases the design resistance of the surrounding soil.

COLUMN INJECTION is used in the construction and repair of various facilities, including buildings, bridges, roads, aerodromes, tunnels, and other structures. It is also used in geotechnics to strengthen slopes, support dams and solve other engineering problems related to soil bases.

Method advantages

• 1The method allows you to strengthen the soil base and create strong support for buildings and structures on it. After polymerization, the geopolymer column has high strength, and resistance to moisture and chemicals, which ensures durability of constructions.
• 2The injection process is carried out quickly and efficiently, thus reducing repair and construction time.
• 3Method application reduces the cost of construction and repair of facilities, as it is more economical than many other methods of strengthening soil bases.
• 4The geopolymer injection method is applicable for strengthening various types of soils, including strengthening the soil in peat lenses, loose soils, and soft clay.
• 5The injection process is carried out without destroying the soil and doesn’t cause significant disturbance to the construction site, which allows it to be preserved in its original form.
• 6Geopolymer composition is environmentally friendly and safe.

BENEFIL

LIGHTWEIGHT FILLING OF FLOORS, SPACES, AND CAVITIES

The BENEFIL method is used for sealing, raising lowered floors, and supporting constructions as well as for filling large hollow spaces. BENEFIL aminoplastic foams of different rigidities or BENEFIL geopolymer resins are used.

The BENEFIL method allows the quick and high-quality preservation of old collectors, pipelines, and shafts, without violating existing building codes and regulations. It is an excellent alternative to flooding with water or pouring concrete. The polymer composition used for the preservation of voids has a low specific weight while having high durability. It can be pumped even in hard-to-reach areas, avoiding excavation work.

BENEFIL rigid foam is used to raise lowered floors and support constructions as well as to fill voids near roads. Once the foam is injected under the surface of the concrete base, it expands and hardens, creating a strong and stable support for the construction.

BENEFIL resin is used to inject it into the soil. The method is used as a precautionary measure to prevent or limit damage when there is a risk of subsidence or leaching. The resin allows loose soil consisting of sand or gravel to be bonded and compacted and creates a strong bearing surface.

The material is pumped under pressure. At that, a workstation with a stock of mortar can be located within a radius of up to 100m from the injection point. In the process of work, the mortar expands several times in volume, completely filling the technical voids.

METHOD ADVANTAGES:

• 1Wide scope of application: conservation of mines, subway tunnels, pipelines, technical cavities, dams strengthening.
• 2Possibility to quickly reactivate the facility.
• 3BENEFIL foam has excellent adhesion properties to the surfaces of different materials, making it the ideal solution for filling voids and joints, as well as sealing cracks.
• 4BENEFIL foam has the ability to absorb residual liquids and gasses, so the method is widely used for shutting off gas pipelines. Thanks to the properties of the foam, the gas pipeline will become inert when closed, as no explosive gas mixtures will remain in the pipe.
• 5BENEFIL is an environmentally friendly material, its use is permitted even in water intake areas or natural and forested areas. The polymer is completely environmentally friendly, flame retardant, and can be recycled for reuse.
