COASTAL APPLICATION

ECA
• When constructing quays, soft
ground conditions often call for the
use of lighter fills to guard against
slide or deformation which can
damage structures ECA can be
used there.

DRAINAGE APPLICATION

• Efficient drainage of the structural layers of the road build up can


prevent loss of load bearing properties caused by water and
ensure a good load bearing capacity throughout the road life.

GEOTECHNICAL APPLICATION
• UNDER GROUND PETROLIUM TANKS :
• Tanks that are buried underground, particularly when they are used for storing dangerous
flammable liquids, reduces the risk of accident or damage and is frequently required for
compliance with national and international standards. The properties of ECA ( Expanded Clay
Aggregates ) make it the perfect material for burying all types of tank.

Bedding and insulation for pipelines :

• Pipe Coating : Concrete is used as a


coating on subsea pipelines to
provide mechanical protection and
stability.

OTHER APPLICATION

• Landfills :
Lightweight ECA helps reduce the load on landfills walls and surfaces.
ECA can be used as lightweight fill in cases where there is a need to
ensure stability, prevent settlement and compensate for heavy loads.

OTHER APPLICATION
• Cleaning filter :
Inexpensive, environment friendly treatment of household sewage
in areas not connected to sewer systems

Green Products
OTHER APPLICATION
• Water Retaining Structures :
Cracking due to temperature and moisture changes is minimised,
contraction and curing properties presents few, if any, problems
and an impermeable concrete can be produced.
• ECA can be used as a structural soil by increasing the ECA to soils
mix for overspill car parking, Golf Courses, Sports Pitches, etc.
