A cast-on-site cellular reinforced concrete system with voids created by plastic void formers.
This type of construction offers significant structural advantages over precast concrete and plastic systems:
- Load bearing up to 40 tonnes gross vehicle weight
- Resists differential settlement
- Reduces sub-base depths
- Eliminates kerb edges
- Not reliant upon grass for stability
- Optimum drainage capability
- Grass reinforcement
The lightweight and stackable nature of the Grasscrete® former moulds enables us to deliver up to 1,800m2 of our GC2 system in 1 x 20’ container load, saving valuable space on site.
In addition to its ability to withstand traffic loads, Grasscrete® is also massively used for projects in the water environment. Tested to flow rates in excess of 8 metres per second, this self-venting paving system is ideal armouring for the following:
- Reservoirs
- Spillways
- Nullah / channel linings
- River and sea defences
When combined with it’s ability to withstand traffic, Grasscrete® has a unique position in the field of water engineering.
