Uretek Processes
Technology for raising, relevelling, resupporting and strengthening moving and sunken construction resting on or in the ground. Applications include buildings and other structures, concrete floors and pavements, in residential, commercial, industrial and civil environments.
Raising and relevelling, carried out by injecting expanding geo-polymeric structural resins under the element to be raised, through holes the size of the old one cent coin.
Improving ground bearing capacity is achieved by this patented technology that compacts foundation soils, again by similar injection through tiny holes but down to multiple depths in weak strata.
URETEK GEOPLUS
The patented D-I resin formulation, brings to bear controlled forces of up to 10,000 kPa.
Patented and initially being offered as UPP Compaction, prefabricated elements are inserted through 36 mmm Ø holes and expand up to 330 mm, allowing a concentration of soil densification in a very defined volume. Structural versions of UPP’s are to provide pile-type support with skin friction and end bearing characteristics.
URETEK LIQUEFACTION MITIGATION
In regions prone to earthquake, patented injection is available to alter the characteristics of non-cohesive foundations at depth, to limit the risk of liquefaction and resulting catastrophic collapse.
URETEK STITCH-IN-TIME
Patented process for restoring load transfer to jointed, cracked or otherwise damaged concrete highways, roads, taxiways & runways. This system is far superior to the steel dowel-bar retrofitting currently in use, in terms of cost, performance and time.*
URETEK HYPER-OPTICS
Non-invasive inspection and analytical technology which finds and maps voids under pavements.*
URETEK REINFORCED POLYMER BASE
Patented process for constructing a light-weight, thermal-insulating, pvc-reinforced membrane, base course or containment layer.*
URETEK POLYMER PILE SYSTEM
The patented high density involves the creation of an in-situ polymer/aggregate pile that cures instantly to form a friction pile.
*Not currently available in Australasia.
