Is HEIC Right for Your Next Project?

Is it time to consider a different approach?

High-stakes sites demand more than traditional compaction can deliver. Landpac’s HEIC offers a more powerful, efficient alternative for complex ground engineering.

Ensure your compaction strategy matches your site’s complexity.

Download our checklist to see if HEIC is right for the job.

The Landpac Advantage

Could You Be Doing Something Differently to Address These Critical Risks?

Assessing Depth and Soil Variability

Does your current site depth exceed the effective influence of conventional compaction methods?

Navigating Complex Site Risk

Are there buried site risks that require a specific ground improvement strategy?

Optimising for Tight Timelines

Is your project schedule optimised for the fastest possible settlement completion timeframes?

Mitigating Environmental Impact

Could your project logistics be simplified by reducing the amount of equipment on site?

Engineering Solutions for Sensitive Sites

Are you aware of the engineering solutions available to maintain HEIC performance while protecting nearby assets?

Applications of HEIC

Land reclamation

Transforming water bodies into usable land areas such as container terminals.

Deleterious material

For sites containing hazardous material such as Acid Sulphate Soils (ASS), asbestos etc.

Mining & power infrastructure

Includes tailings dams, haul roads, and rehabilitation. Also used in the power industry, including wind farm power generation track lines and lay-down areas.

Civil infrastructure & development

Includes residential sub-divisions, airports, roads and ports.

Commercial & industrial

Includes business, production, commerce, manufacturing and trade services

Landfills

Creating extra volume and sealing from noxious gases.

High Energy Impact Compaction (HEIC) is a compaction technique that transmits rapid, high-energy impact in order to strengthen base materials and lay firm foundations for development.

HEIC can be far more efficient than conventional compaction methods – around a fraction of the cost, and significantly quicker than traditional methods. Our specialists can advise if HEIC is the right solution for your site.

High-energy impact compaction offers more efficient compaction for specific soil types, especially in larger construction projects. Regular compaction methods, while generally slower, are more versatile and can be used for a wider variety of soil types and situations. The choice between the two methods depends on project-specific factors and goals.

Impact compaction might be necessary for your site if you:

    • Have loose, granular soil with poor compaction properties
    • Need to enhance load-bearing capacity for structures
    • Want to mitigate settlement issue
    • Find it more cost-effective compared to other methods

 

Consulting a geotechnical engineer is crucial to make an informed decision based on soil tests, site conditions, and project requirements.
