Stabilising
concrete floors and movement joints
Vehicle movements inside industrial buildings often cause the concrete floor to lift off the ground underneath. This frequently occurs at movement joints. As a result the concrete floor vibrates and this vibration can damage machinery in the vicinity. This can lead to hazardous situations and failure of machinery and computers. Our system can stabilise your concrete floor so that it is supported again by the ground and vibration is absorbed by the ground, not by the floor.
Stabilising concrete floors and movement joints – the ConcreteFloorSystems system:
PREPARATION
PREPARATION
We start by drilling holes through the subsided concrete floor. The hole pattern depends on the underlying soil, the type of concrete floor, the client's requirements, and the required amount of relevelling.
EXECUTION
EXECUTION
We install tightly fitting injection plugs into the drilled holes. Next we use a special injection lance to inject the lightweight concrete lifting mix under the subsided concrete floor. The whole process is carefully monitored using laser surveying equipment.
HAND-OVER
HAND-OVER
Once the client has approved the work the injection plugs are removed and the injection holes are carefully filled. The concrete floor is ready for use after 24 hours.
