Void-Fill Concrete
Novum Concrete’s Void-Fill Concrete is a lightweight, flowable mix specifically designed to fill voids, cavities, and gaps in construction projects.
This type of concrete is perfect for situations where full structural strength isn’t required, but stability and support are essential.
Its easy-to-pour consistency makes it ideal for filling hard-to-reach spaces, providing efficient coverage without the need for extensive labor or equipment. It’s a practical solution for geotechnical applications and other projects where voids need to be stabilized.
Key Benefits
- Easily fills cavities and hard-to-reach areas, making it ideal for use in complex or irregular spaces.
- A lower density than standard concrete, reducing the overall load while still providing necessary support.
- Reduces the risk of voids reappearing over time, ensuring a stable and reliable fill.
- - Requires less material and labour than traditional filling methods, saving time and money on projects.
Applications in Kenya
Void-Fill Concrete is perfect for construction projects across Kenya where filling voids or stabilizing ground is a priority. Its unique properties make it suitable for:
- Backfilling: Ideal for backfilling trenches, pipes, and utility lines in infrastructure projects, providing a solid fill with minimal effort.
- Foundation stabilization: Great for filling voids around foundations, ensuring long-term stability in residential and commercial buildings.
- Geotechnical applications: Used to fill voids in soils and prevent settlement issues in roads, highways, and other large-scale infrastructure.
- Bridge and tunnel support: Effective in filling gaps beneath structures to improve stability without adding significant weight.
