Concrete lifting and leveling projects in agricultural settings use probe injection to fill soil voids and lift grain bins and their associated slabs back into position.

How It's Used

When voids develop under concrete slabs because of weak soils, it can be costly to repair as slabs settle and sink over time. Traditional solutions, like mud jacking, only offer temporary support that needs to be reapplied more often, making it more costly and less durable than the probe injection method.

Agricultural applications include:

  • Grain bins

  • Loading docks

  • Equipment pads

  • Quonset flooring

  • Barn floors and structures

Agricultural PROCESS

Once problem areas are identified, geopolymer experts develop an injection plan to stabilize the concrete permanently. Following the mapping of injection points, specialized equipment is used to inject the geopolymer into the subgrade at pre-determined elevations. As the polymers expand to fill voids, the two-part component forms a cohesive matrix with existing soil components to create a stable subsurface aggregate.

Advantages of Geotechnical Polymers for Agriculture

  • More durable than traditional methods

  • Rapidly deployable

  • Fast curing time

  • Environmentally inert foam minimizes impacts

  • Long-lasting solution

  • 1/35th the weight of concrete or cementitious grout options.
