HEIC for Liquefaction Mitigation

A yellow construction vehicle, vital for liquefaction mitigation, smooths an uneven dirt surface with a large roller attachment. Puddles reflect the sky in the foreground, while trees and modern buildings can be seen in the background.

Liquefaction is a phenomenon that can occur in saturated soils during seismic events, causing significant damage to structures and infrastructure.

HEIC for the Treatment of Dry Materials

A green and yellow tractor with caterpillar tracks is precision-plowing red soil in a dusty field under a clear blue sky. The tractor stirs up a cloud of dust as it moves purposefully through the terrain. Sparse vegetation can be seen in the background.

High Energy Impact Compaction (HEIC) is a powerful technique that can be employed for the treatment of dry materials, offering effective densification and stabilisation.

Proof Rolling with HEIC

A green tractor with a yellow attachment is parked on a large, dusty field under a clear blue sky, ready for proof rolling. Trees and a few buildings are visible in the distant background.

Proof rolling is a field testing technique used in geotechnical engineering to assess the integrity and stability of the subgrade or the prepared base course before construction activities commence.

Accelerated Consolidation with HEIC

A green tractor with yellow wheels is towing a large, heavy yellow roller on a dirt field, enhancing accelerated consolidation. The background features trees and a clear blue sky.

Managing the settlement of soft soils is a challenging aspect of many construction projects. Without proper treatment, the natural process of soil consolidation can take years, even decades, potentially leading to uneven settlement, structural damage, and project delays.
