Transportation Infrastructure

Solutions for transportation infrastructure

OVERVIEW

Transportation infrastructure faces unique challenges as global mobility and trade continues to increase.

Asphalt Reinforcement

As a permeable road surface, asphalt can be prone to cracking and wear. Reinforcement delays the occurrence of cracks and reduces the effects of stress.

Drainage For Earth Retaining Structures And Bridge Abutments

Enkadrain geocomposite drainage layers instead of a granular fill offers a variety of benefits, including preventing water build-up behind conventional retaining structures and bridge abutments, so reducing damage.

Edge Drainage

Preventing damage to road structures by draining edges and soil embankments to maintain the soil's strength.

Embankments On Weak Soils And Areas Prone To Subsidence

Accelerated consolidation of soft soils by using prefabricated vertical drains (PVD), and using Geosynthetic Encased Columns to ensure the columns transfer loads vertically.

Erosion Control

Erosion prevention mats allow fast vegetation growth and provide a foothold for vegetation root systems.

Improved Durability Of Concrete

Adfil synthetic fibres in concrete barriers, pavement and rail sleepers improve impact, abrasion and freeze-thaw resistance.

Railway Support

Solutions to resist the upward movement of fine soil particles, and reinforcement to improve bearing capacity over weaker subgrades or prevent deformation of ballast.

Reinforced Soil Structures

Cost-effective and sustainable schemes to optimise minimal available land space when creating new infrastructure. Reduces the need for removing in-situ materials or importing new materials.

Roads & Working Platforms Over Soft Ground

For reinforcing and stabilising foundations and sub-bases over weak soils, we can advise on different solutions for varied needs.

Vibration Damping

Innovative and cost-effective vibration damping solutions to reduce vibrations transmitted through soil and concrete to adjacent structures from road, trains, trams and construction traffic.
