Ground improvement measures are possible with the ground replacement method "Columbus+" / Commercial facility case study.

Powerful against weak ground! Strong against earthquakes, differential settlement, and traffic vibrations, and also excellent for underfloor insulation.

【Example of au Shop Minto-ya】―――――――――――――――――――― Unnan City, Shimane Prefecture; Construction in February 2012; Steel frame, one-story building; 300m2 / 30-year lease. In the case of piles, removal by extraction is a condition. Adopted to reduce removal costs. ――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― The ground replacement method "Columbus+" provides double benefits of differential settlement countermeasures and seismic resistance, making it effective against earthquakes and liquefaction. It is recommended for ultra-soft ground, pile foundations, friction pile foundations, designated archaeological areas, underground obstacles, periodic leases, vibration countermeasures, and earthquake countermeasures. By removing the heavy soil beneath the foundation and replacing it with lightweight EPS (expanded polystyrene) "Geoform," the weight of the building on the soft ground is reduced, thus minimizing settlement. Furthermore, it balances with the ground to prevent differential settlement, ensuring safety even on ultra-soft ground with deep support layers.

Ground improvement measures are possible with the ground replacement method "Columbus+" / Case study of welfare facilities.

Powerful against weak ground! Strong against earthquakes, differential settlement, and traffic vibrations, and also excellent for underfloor insulation.

【Small-scale multifunctional home care facility】―――――――――――――――――― Nagato City, Yamaguchi Prefecture・Construction completed in February 2012・Wooden single-story building・467 square meters / Cost reduction compared to pile foundations. ――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― The ground replacement method "Columbus+" provides dual benefits of countermeasures against differential settlement and seismic resistance, making it a method that is strong against earthquakes and liquefaction. It is recommended for ultra-soft ground, pile foundations, friction pile foundations, designated archaeological areas, underground buried obstacles, leased land, vibration countermeasures, and earthquake countermeasures. By removing the heavy soil beneath the foundation and placing lightweight EPS (expanded polystyrene) "Geoform" in its place, the weight of the building on the soft ground is reduced, thereby suppressing settlement. Furthermore, it balances with the ground to prevent differential settlement, where the building tilts and sinks, ensuring safety even on ultra-soft ground with deep support layers.

Environmental Measures Ground Replacement Method "Columbus+"

[Environmental Measures] The thermal insulation of geofoam reduces heat loss! Contributes to CO2 reduction!

【(Foundation) Better Living's experiment has demonstrated the effectiveness of vibration reduction】 【The Hokkaido Northern Architectural Research Institute has verified and evaluated the insulation and frost prevention effects】 【Patent construction method】 The ground replacement method "Columbus+" removes heavy soil beneath the foundation and replaces it with lightweight and compression-resistant "Geoform," reducing the weight of buildings on soft ground and suppressing settlement. Additionally, Geoform has insulation properties. Since it is laid out across the entire foundation area, heat loss to the underfloor is minimized. Minimizing heat loss leads to reduced heating costs, which in turn contributes to CO2 reduction. ○ Geoform, precut according to construction drawings, is easy to install. ○ We guarantee protection against damage to the foundation and building due to differential settlement for 10 years, up to a maximum of 50 million yen. ○ We have a track record of 4,000 projects nationwide, from public properties to private homes (as of August 2020). ○ We are expanding offices and agencies nationwide, and local representatives will visit to provide explanations. ○ Estimates are free of charge. ○ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
