USLPore® can be used in road and rail construction to reduce the overall heavy weight of the road and rail structure. This building method is particularly applied in areas of soft ground.
Specifically if lighter filling materials have to be collected from fare distance it makes sence to use USLPore® to bring down the involved costs for road and rail construction projects. Typically also the road ramps are sub-based by USLPore®.
True Pore Technology
Innovative technology for aeration of construction materialsfor insulation purposes and
reduction of your carbon dioxide footprint
Road/Rail Sub-Base
USLPore® is an ideal and costs effective construction matrial for substructures of roads and railways.
- No transportation, on-site production
- Reduction of carbon dioxide footprint
- Alternative for foam glass, aerated clay and other filling materials
- Void filling ability, adjustable viscosity due to various additives
- Fireproofed construction material
- Fully recyclable
Projects
USLPore® foam concrete for road/rail sub-base can be produced at different densities. The density below is representing the average applied density of our customers for the respective application.
A higher density is resulting in a higher compressive strength but lower insulating effect.
A lower density is resulting in a lower compressive strength but better insulating effect.
All USLPore® products are fully non-combustible.
