Load spreading Lightweight Slab BROADENING AND ADJUSTMENT OF NATIONAL HIGHWAY GÖTEBORG, SWEDEN – 2005
Road embankment
In connection to adding one lane to the E6 highway, the problems with consolidation settlements in the underlying clay had to be taken care of and the road profile adjusted. Geotechnical reinforcements to avoid further settlements or differential settlements had to be considered. Load compensation with Leca and LLS. For the LLS the Leca® was loaded from silo into cement trucks with a rotating cylinder volume of about 7,5 m3. Then Slurry was added at a concrete plant and the material mixed on the way to the construction site.
