New procedures to benefit the environment!

Our contribution to time and money savings with zero compromise on quality:

Soil solidification with GeoCrete(®

© KABA Infratech Pvt. Ltd.

What is GeoCrete®?

Stabilization of existing or natural soils with cement is a problem because of the humus

acids (especially fulvic and carbon acids) that are in organic matter. These acids block the

hydration of cement almost completely. Applying GeoCrete® as an additive to cement

neutralizes the humus acids in such a way that the hydration of cement in the stabilization

(or immobilization) is not blocked.

GeoCrete® is an additive to cement and can be mixed together with cement and soils. It

has an off – white to grayish colour(powder form) which exists of alkaline – and alkaline

earth elements. GeoCrete® and cement together allow an environmental friendly transition

of the existing soil into a newly build concrete like structure.

Unlike concrete, in which short crystalline structures are build (that’s why such a

construction will crack easily and large surfaces need to be reinforced or the cracking

controlled), GeoCrete® allows long crystalline structures to be build which gives the

construction high bearing capacities, elastic modules, the tensile strength. The construction

also becomes water impermeable which enhances the frost resistance.

Operating Principle of GeoCrete®

Distribution of the GeoCrete®

The water is sprinkled earlier which act as a means of transport for the GeoCrete® and

cement mixture to seep into the soil.

Operating Principle of GeoCrete®

Through homogeneously blending the GeoCrete® and

cement settles around and between the earth grains.

Operating Principle of GeoCrete® Compression

After the compression process the remaining humidity is delivered

Operating Principle of GeoCrete®

The molecules of the GeoCrete® ,cement and soil are

pressed to each other through the compression procedure

Procedure steps: Banished roads

Milling of the old asphalt

- Milling of the old asphalt layers

- Up to 10 cm of the old asphalt material

can be mixed together with the cement-

GeoCrete® -mixture

Special Grubber in action

- Cracking of the old layer material

- Big stones were brought to the surface

Stone crusher in

action

- Milling of the mixed

layer material with the

stone crusher to a

grain size < 50 mm

Procedure steps: From the scratch

Surface preparation Spreading procedure

Preparation of surfaces

- Secure trafficability for construction equipment

- Reduce water content of soil, if required

- Exchange soil, if required.

- Pre-leveling/pre-compaction of rough grade level

- Obstruction-free trafficability of the area

- Marking/pegging of stabilization area

- Safeguarding of subterranean service pipes

Spreading of cement and GeoCrete® mixture

- Qualification test for specification of cement/

additive mixture

Procedure steps:

Mixing procedure Irrigation

Mixing of cement and GeoCrete® mixture with

soil

- Mixing of cement/additive mixture in required

- In the case of milling depths required > 50 cm,

the soil is dug away, stored intermediary, mixed

with cement and reused.

Watering the surface

High load capacity

The stabilized layer has a

very high load bearing
