CAC-EARTHFOAM 110

Soil conditioning foam

CAC- Earth Foam 110 is a soil conditioning foam specifically developed to be used with tunnel boring machine. It acts as a soil conditioner for various types of soil conditions ranging from wet to sandy clay types. It creates a temporary cohesion of the soil as well as a reduction in water permeability. It also gives the soil a cohesive characteristic which is necessary for tunnel boring. The foam also provides an air cushion for the soil which compensates for the abrupt pressure changes at the tunnel face.

AREA OF APPLICATION:

  • Tunnel boring machinery
  • Designed for silt to sand soils which may contain a high amount of water
  • Consistency control
  • Soil slurry support
