Pepsi Bottling Plant Rocking Slab Stabilization

Erosion beneath warehouse concrete slab floor causing uneven joints and rocking slabs at Pepsi Bottling Plant in Nashville, TN
About The Project
Contractor Mid-South Concrete Leveling (MSCL)
Project Location Nashville, TN
Product Used Terrathane™ 24-003

Problem

  • Erosion beneath warehouse concrete slab floor causing uneven joints and rocking slabs
  • Forklift traffic travelling over the unsupported slabs caused the slabs to rock up and down and created breaks and fractures called “joint spalling”
  • Rocking and unlevel slabs were causing jolts and bumps to forklifts, leading to falling loads and safety issues

Solution

  • Clean out all joints and remove the debris
  • Inject TerraThane™ 24-003 polyurethane on a 4 ft grid pattern to fill joints, voids and stabilize rocking slabs

Results

  • Stabilized over 130 ft of slabs
  • Work performed to minimize operational interruption
  • Fast cure time ensured the installation locations would be drive-able during the same day as the installation

Terra-Lok™ Used to Stabilize and Leak Seal North Carolina Lock

The William O’Huske Lock & Dam in North Carolina was experiencing soil loss and joint separation due to water infiltration, causing its structural integrity to degrade. USACE worked with Ram Jack to inject NCFI Terra-Lok™ polyurethane behind the wall to seal cracks and joints, stop water intrusion, and fill voids.
