NANOTECHNOLOGY IN CIVIL ENGINEERING

High-tech in civil engineering

In 2003 it was discovered that a wide variety of soil materials can be stabilised with nanoparticles in combination with commercially available cement. This discovery was perfected by the pioneers of nanotechnology in civil engineering. In the meantime, this has become a serious alternative with many advantages for the client.

Why nanotechnology in civil engineering?

Reduced costs

Short construction time

Material is recycled on site

Higher load capacity

Higher elasticity

Water quality class I

Wide range of usable soils

Contaminated soil can be processed

Good frost and dew resistance

Reduction of the asphalt layer

Applications

Stabilization of road bodies and base layers in new buildings and during renovation

Roads

Cycle paths

Parking spaces

Agricultural roads

Substrate improvement for new buildings

Storage areas, container locations, loading zones etc.

Nano + cement + recycled material = optimal base layer
