Advantages of cellular concrete engineered fill
LDCC offers many advantages over traditional engineered fill, including:
- High strength to weight ratio
- Customizable mix designs
- No compaction
- Flowability eliminates voids
- Not affected by petroleum-based products
- Low maintenance and easily excavated
- Air increases volume 3-8 times, reducing freight cost and truck traffic
- Low permeability reduces loads and issues with drainage and freeze/thaw cycles
Uses and applications
LDCC is an excellent backfill material because it exerts no lateral pressure on adjacent structures, has low permeability and a lighter weight, and is highly flowable. These characteristics make it an ideal solution for a wide variety of applications, including:
- Elevated plaza and garden structures
- MSE walls
- Utility fills
- Annular space fills
- Abandoned pipe fills
- Retaining wall backfills
- Bridge abutment backfills
- Trench fills
- Void fills
- Silo fills
- Load reduction mitigation
