A variety of soil mixing and remediation head options are now available depending on project conditions and requirements. Antraquip soil mixing attachments can be supplied with customized extensions to help protect hydraulic hoses and incorporate hard lines for required additives needed for remediation and/or soil stabilization.
The method utilizing Antraquip mixers relies on thoroughly mixing binders into subject material while the material remains in-place or in situ.
Soil Mixing is quick and cost effective compared to other methods such as: excavation and replacement of incompetent soil or compaction by surcharge. Treated ground can be accessed with heavy equipment in as short a time as one day.
CIVIL ENGINEERING USES OF SOIL MIXING
- Stiffening of pavement and rail subgrades
- Stabilization of embankments
- Protection of adjacent structures from transmitted vibration
- Low permeability ground water protection layers
- Reduction of soil hydraulic conductivity
- Erosion control
- Protection layers for permafrost and frost
ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING USES OF SOIL MIXING
- Reuse of dredged material management areas for infrastructure development
- Treatment of dredge within barges producing engineered fill
- Recycling of the industrial by-products
- Solidify free-liquids
- Increase compressive strength
- Reduce hydraulic conductivity
- lnsitu solidification/stabilization (ISS)
- Immobilize hazardous constituents
