Horizontal soil injection creates a water-resistant layer beneath a planned excavation pit. It is mainly used where the ground has no natural water-resistant clay layer. To make the existing soil layer water-resistant, the soil is usually injected with water glass (silicates).
The injection hoses are installed by drilling or vibrating in a grid at such a depth that the cofferdam will not crack after excavation. After applying the hoses, the fluid is injected and after curing, a water-inhibiting layer will form.
The resulting horizontal layer serves as a water-inhibiting layer in the bottom of the construction pit.
Horizontal soil injection is also known as water-resistant soil injection.
In addition to horizontal soil injection, we naturally also use vertical soil injection / constructive soil injection.
Creating a water-resistant layer beneath the planned excavation pit.
Mainly where the ground has no natural water-resistant clay layer.
Injection hoses are drilled or vibrated into the ground in a grid pattern, deep enough to prevent the excavation pit from cracking after excavation. Water glass (silicates) is then injected; once it hardens, it forms a water-resistant layer.
