[Super Sol Construction Case] Example of Ground Subsurface Drainage Work

This is a case study of the renovation work on the grounds of Jonan Junior High School in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

We would like to introduce a case study of the construction using "Super Sol," an artificial lightweight material made from crushed and sintered waste glass. This example pertains to the installation of subsurface drainage in a schoolyard with poor drainage at a public junior high school. Super Sol was used to fill the subsurface drainage trenches, improving drainage performance. Typically, crushed stone is used around conventional drainage pipes, but Super Sol is lightweight, making it easier to work with and reducing the load on the drainage pipes. It has a particle size ranging from 2 to 75 mm and maintains high permeability even after installation, minimizing clogging and ensuring sustained drainage effectiveness. 【Construction Case Study】 - Project: Renovation of the grounds at Jonan Junior High School - Application Category: Civil Engineering / Drainage Material / Subsurface Drainage Ground Material - Client: Kurume City - Location: Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture - Required Performance: Drainage and Lightweight Properties For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

"Super Sol," made by crushing and sintering waste glass, is a lightweight material with countless holes, forming a porous structure. It is an artificial lightweight stone with an irregular shape and a particle size of 2 to 75 mm. There are products with varying specific gravities and water absorption rates to suit different applications. Composed of soil components, it is an eco-friendly product with an eco-mark. **Features of Super Sol:** - **Lightweight:** It is 1/6 to 1/5 the weight of soil, with a proven track record as a lightweight fill material. By combining it with crushed stone, the unit weight can be controlled between 4 kN/m³ and 11 kN/m³. - **Drainage:** It can be used as a drainage material in civil engineering and greening projects. - **Aeration and Water Retention:** It can be used as an inorganic soil amendment for greening. - **Workability:** Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle, facilitating construction in uneven terrains and confined spaces. Like crushed stone, it can be installed through leveling and compaction without the need for curing periods or special techniques. - **Stability:** Being mineral-based and inorganic, it is physically and chemically stable, with no corrosion. - **Safety:** As it is made from naturally derived glass, Super Sol is composed of soil components, making it a highly safe material for the surrounding environment.
