Self Levelling / Self Compacting
Foam concrete is naturally self-levelling and self-compacting, filling the smallest voids, cavities and seams within the pouring area.
In excavations with poor soils that cannot be easily compacted, foam concrete forms a 100% compacted foundation over the soft sub-soil. Compaction of conventional, granular backfill against retaining structures or deep foundations can cause damage or movement to the adjacent structure. In these situations, foam concrete with its reduced lateral loading is a safe solution.
