Hand Injection

Hand injections are performed using specially designed rods that are manually driven into the ground. These rods deliver our proprietary formulated soil stabilizer that targets the molecular structure of the clay.

Hand injections are a great option when there is no city water meter available, the injection area is small, or an area that heavy equipment cannot access.

Examples:

·        Pool belly or pool decking

·        Perimeter of existing structures

·        Interior of buildings

Machine Injection

Machine injections are performed using a skid steer with a specially designed mast attached and a high-pressure pump. The equipment injects United Soil Stabilizer up to 12 feet into the ground insuring that the molecular structure of the clay is permanently changed.

Machine injections are used for:

·        Pre-construction sites

·        Large or open areas

·        Projects that have access to a city water meter, frac tanks or large body of water such as pond or lake

Boring & Testing

Borings are taken using special drilling rigs with boring tubes attached to extract the soil samples up to 20 feet deep. The samples are then bagged and tagged to ensure their integrity. These samples are used to determine the physical properties of the soil and help determine if the site is suitable for construction.

 

Geotechnical Soil Testing:

The borings are then taken to a 3rd party geotechnical engineer to perform specialized testing on the soil samples. The testing will determine things such as:

·        Soil Classification

·        Grain size

·        Moisture content

·        Swell Potential or Potential Vertical Rise (PVR)

·        Dry Density

The geotechnical engineering will provide a soils report showing the results of the testing. Based on the results, they will also provide site specific recommendations. These recommendations are then used to determine what steps need to be taken in order to prepare the site for the project.
