[Super Soil Construction Case Study] A1 Case of Embankment Lightweighting through Weak Ground Measures

This is an example of the improvement work for the Iwami IC No. 2 on the Route 9 Saji Mountain Bypass in Iwami District, Tottori Prefecture.

We would like to introduce a case study of the construction of the artificial lightweight material "Super Sol," made from crushed and sintered waste glass, in the context of "lightweight embankment measures for soft ground countermeasures." This project involved embankment work associated with the construction of a new road. As a countermeasure for soft ground, it was necessary to lighten the embankment for the protection of box culverts and to address differential settlement, leading to the use of the environmentally friendly material Super Sol. Width: Approximately 15-27m, Length: Approximately 47m, Embankment height: Approximately 6m, including behind the bridge abutment. 【Construction Case Study】 - Project Details: National Route 9, Shichiyama Bypass Iwami IC Second Improvement Work - Usage Category: Civil Engineering / Behind Bridge Abutment / Roadbed - Client: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Chugoku Regional Development Bureau - Construction Location: Iwami County, Tottori Prefecture - Required Performance: Lightweight, Strength, Soil Pressure Reduction For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
