Need expert advice on whether flowable fill is a good fit for your project?
ENGINEERS, HIGHWAY & ROADWAY CONTRACTORS, GENERAL CONTRACTORS, OWNERS, AND UTILITY CONTRACTORS:
Low-Density Cellular Concrete (LDCC), also known as Foamed Concrete, is an Engineered Fill made from a mixture of Portland Cement,
water, and preformed foam. The foam creates a structure of air voids, which increases volume while reducing density, thus improving
flowability.
LDCC can serve as a strong, durable, lightweight and cost-saving alternative to soil or fill replacement for many geotechnical applications.
Specific densities and strengths can be customized by varying the water to cement ratio, fly ash, or sand.
With its flowable nature and extreme pumpability, LDCC can be efficiently and safely utilized in problematic or confined annular grout and
void spaces. Its lightweight property improves the bearing capacity and stability of embankments and reduces ground settlement. These
attributes make LDCC an economical, time-saving solution for many geotechnical applications.
