Intelligent Road Solutions and their positive impact on project costs and sustainability.

Soil solutions are revolutionizing the way in which we build, repair and maintain roads.

Soil Solutions®  introduces Intelligent Road Solutions ™, a completely new approach to road construction and road improvements that provides innovative and engineered solutions through the combining of technologies which deliver long lasting, better performing roads, that require significantly less maintenance while simultaneously delivering cost effective solutions and reduced environmental impact. The Intelligent Road Solutions compromise of four unique products..

Road Recycler Machines 

Soil Solutions have recently solidified their distributorship agreement with FAE for their Road Recycler Machines.

These Multitask Road Recyclers have the ability to improve and recycle in-situ asphalt pavement materials. Thee implementation of an effective asphalt recycling method provides not only significant savings in both time and cost but also a substantial reduction to the impact on the community and environment during the construction process.

The NEW MTL Model

These innovative machines/attachments improve the process, cost effectiveness and sustainability of road construction.All units come with the injection system for EBS Soil Stabilizer – making this the perfect combination of technology for any road project.

The Road Recycler Attachments are attached to a tractor and offer a solution for road construction, upgrades and asphalt recycling in rural or remote locations as these machines are logistically easier and more cost effective to use.   There are four different models to meet the requirements of any budget or project.  The ability of these Recycler Machines are numerous and include: milling bedrock into useable layer works material without the requirement for a crushing and screening operation;  construction to a measured depth up to 400mm; and applying EBS Soil Stabilizer at the precise depth and amount.

The Road Recycling Process

Soil Solutions continues to provide cost effective and sustainable solutions for the road industry with the addition of the most advanced method of asphalt recycling.

Our Intelligent Road technologies are “sustainable” – cost wise and environmentally  due to the massive decrease in imported material that they provide.

Engineered Base Stabilizer

EBS  is  a multi-dimensional nano polymer that binds soil particles.  EBS is added to existing sub standard in-situ soils for increased CBR and increases PI to allow for bonding.  EBS results in immediate reduction in costs as it reduces the amount of imported aggregate required.  EBS can be accurately added using the Recycler attachment machines.  EBS is also applied as a Surface Seal on Gravel Roads and Airstrips to provide a hard all-weather surface.  EBS checks all of the boxes with cost reduction and reduced environmental impact. We utilise EBS with the Road Recycler Machines.

 Geogrid Technology

Geogrid provides a highly advanced biaxial grid that strengthens the existing layer works especially in sandy soils.  These grids are manufactured to the size, and strength specification required and are used to provide additional strength to layer works in substandard soils to allow for the construction of roads, parking areas, and foundations.  These grids hold the aggregate tightly in place and allow for the placement of additional layers in order to achieve the specification required.

Dynamic Compaction

Starting with the initial Civil Works Dynamic Compaction is used to reduce the cost and time required for the cut to fill part of the layer works construction. With Dynamic Compaction the need to excavation, loading, removal and placement of material is eliminated.  By incorporating the use of Dynamic Compaction machines into the construction of roads, rails and port facilities allows for a substantial decrease in the cost of the traditional cut to fill layers and can render a savings up to 60% or more of the cost of construction as well as the cost of crushing and screening of selected materials.

  1. Wow, I had no idea that there were so many ways to stabilize roadways and ground like this. I am especially impressed by everything that has been said about the Engineered Base Stabilizer. Something like that could easily become mandatory for any road construction just to make it safer.

  2. Thanks very much for the comment Callum. If you would like more information on EBS drop us a mail on info@soilsolutions.com

  3. I am excited to read the post and happy that you have stated genuinely good information in this blog. Hope more good things will come in future as well. Information stated in points is particularly easy to understand and it seems that it comes from valid sources. Thanks for this blog and looking forward to similar posts in future.
