Basal Reinforcement

Soil quality varies from region to region. A certain strength and stability is required by the ground level to receive any structures on it surface. This is typically known as CBR – California Bearing Ratio. Failure to achieve the required bearing capacity can lead to deformations beneath the surface. This could lead to collapsing, sinking, movement of the structures above. The soil quality is dependent on the types of soil material that constitutes the ground and below layers. Finer Soil tend to have lower bearing capacity while hard and dense soil have opposite effect. Factors like ground water, clay content etc can also play significant roles in reducing or increasing the bearing capacity. Basal reinforcement is required to reinforce such weak soil and to allow to receive structures. Construck can design the basal reinforcement ideas with various products to achieve the right cost based performance oriented results for the clients.
