Deep Lift Stabilisation

Deep Lift Stabilisation - Click to enlarge (35KB)Whilst the use of insitu stabilisation techniques to incorporate a cementitious binder had long been recognised and widely used in Australia, there was a need to be able to produce thicker bound pavements in a single layer in order to carry higher traffic loads than had previously been possible with existing techniques.

Through the use of:

  • The most modern, high powered recycling equipment

  • Specialised binder spreaders

  • Deep Lift Stabilisation - Click to enlarge (36KB)High performance compaction equipment, and

  • Slow setting binders

the deep lift stabilisation process produces bound pavement layers of sufficient thickness to satisfy the structural design requirements of heavily trafficked (often rural) highway pavements.

Stabilised Pavements pioneered deep lift stabilisation techniques in Australia, in conjunction with the RTA NSW (particularly its Bega and Cooma Works Offices), through the introduction of large, high powered Reclaimer/Stabilisers. Initially carrying out these works using the CMI RS500 machines, Stabilised Pavements also were the first to introduce other machines for this work. Its fleet now includes the CMI RS 650, the Wirtgen WR2500 and the Deep Lift Stabilisation - Click to enlarge (32KB)most recent addition, the Wirtgen WR2500K.

Hundreds of thousands of square meters of pavement were quickly rehabilitated using this process.

Deep Lift Stabilisation in NSW has proven to be highly successful, with the RTA NSW reporting 20-40% savings over the cost of granular overlays being achieved as a result of the process.
