GRT
Test Data
Engineered in the GRT laboratories, the innovative range of GRT polymer solutions are tirelessly tried and tested, ensuring optimal results are achieved across all soil types.
Using the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and testing for Unconfined Compression Strength (UCS) in road subgrades and base courses, GRT’s revolutionary polymer products accomplish game changing results, even in small dosages.
Improved Rolling Resistance Performance 65%
Improved Road Wearing Coarse Friction Performance and Durability 59%
Improved Fuel Economy 26%
Improved Haul Truck Tyre Life 31%
Improved Air Quality 96%
100% Dry Strength
100% dry strength increase of base material can be achieved with as little as 0.5% of Polymer additive with UCS results ranging from 2 – 5.8Mpa
Indirect Tensile Strength 25% of UCS
Indirect tensile strength results of approximately 25% of UCS can be achieved from polymer treated base materials, were cement treated base materials will only achieve 4% of UCS at best.
Increased CBR by 65%
The CBR value of Sub base materials can be improved by at least 65%, to base course quality of greater than CBR 100%.
70% Reduction in Pavement Depths
70% reduction in pavement depths achievable using polymer stabilized base and sub-bases.
