[Super Sol Construction Case] A2 U-shaped retaining wall infill material case
Super Sol L2
This is a case of the improvement work on National Route 2 in the Monzen area of Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture.
We will introduce a construction example of the artificial lightweight material "Super Sol," which is made by crushing and sintering waste glass to create a foamed glass lightweight material, used as infill for U-shaped retaining walls. This is part of the improvement work on National Route 2. Super Sol, which can reduce weight, was used as the infill material for the U-shaped retaining wall. Lightweight materials were considered to reduce the load on the underground passage and waterway that cross beneath the national road. Initially, another material was planned for use, but due to concerns about dissolution from leaks of gasoline and other substances, Super Sol, an inorganic mineral material with low degradation from heat and oil, was adopted. 【Construction Example】 - Project Details: Improvement work in the Monzen area of National Route 2 - Application Category: Civil Engineering / Structural Backfill / Retaining Wall / Roadbed - Client: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Kinki Regional Development Bureau - Construction Location: Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture - Required Performance: Lightweight, Load Reduction, Heat and Oil Resistance For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

"Super Sol," made by crushing and sintering waste glass, is a lightweight material with countless holes, characterized by its porous structure. It is an artificial lightweight aggregate with an irregular particle size ranging from 2 to 75 mm. There are products with varying specific gravities and water absorption rates to suit different applications. Composed of soil components, it is an eco-friendly product with an eco-mark. **Features of Super Sol:** - **Lightweight:** It is 1/6 to 1/5 the weight of soil, with a proven track record as a lightweight fill material. By combining it with crushed stone, the unit weight can be controlled between 4 kN/m³ and 11 kN/m³. - **Drainage:** It can be used as a drainage material in civil engineering and greening projects. - **Aeration and Water Retention:** It can be used as an inorganic soil amendment for greening. - **Workability:** Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle, facilitating construction in distorted terrains and narrow spaces. Like crushed stone, it can be installed through spreading and compaction without the need for curing time or special techniques. - **Stability:** Being mineral-based and inorganic, it is physically and chemically stable and does not corrode. - **Safety:** Since it is made from naturally derived glass, Super Sol is also composed of soil components, making it a highly safe material for the surrounding environment.
