Gravelock Application Process
Cost Effective, Innovative, Easy to Use
GRAVELOCK Application Process
Construction can be seamlessly integrated with road owner crews and equipment, reducing the need for outsourcing and lowering costs. Using GRAVELOCK technology for road construction is straightforward and requires no special methods or equipment, following similar practices to conventional road base rehabilitation.
GRAVELOCK is a liquid concentrate that mixes easily with water and can be integrated into the soil using equipment like tractors or roto-mixers, aligning with traditional road construction methods.
In some cases, GRAVELOCK can be applied directly to an existing finished road surface, causing minimal disturbance to the road and traffic while further reducing construction costs.
Construction Method
PREPARE
Prepare the road by clearing the ditches and pulling shoulders, shape the road.
SCARIFY
Scarify the road to a depth of 20 cm.
GRAVELOCK
Add the GRAVELOCK to the water in the spray truck and spread evenly over the scarified area. Add more water if necessary to bring the moisture content of the soil to just above OMC.
MIX
Mix the scarified layer with the dradder or other equipment to ensure that the moisture content is even throughout the layer.
SHAPE
Shape and compact the road.
ROLLING
Finish rolling the surface with a pneumatic roller.
SPRAY
Spray a small amount of clean water onto the finished treated surface once a day for three days.
