Construction of Military Convoy Road in UAE
Soil & Dust Solutions was called to provide on site technical assistance for the construction of a Military Convoy Road. This project presented a host of challenges, as the in-situ soil was sand; the road could not be closed to traffic and remained open during construction and application; the area was totally exposed to the wind which caused huge dust problems and resulting poor visibility; the equipment provided did not meet the specification; and soaring temperatures exceeding 45° C.
In order to overcome the problems when dealing with sand and not having a proper aggregate, the base layer was completed in two separate layers, using the soil stabilizer diluted with water, and mixed into the first 150 mm layer and then compacted with a second layer on top. As the road was in the open, the berms and sides were also treated as a preventative dust control measure. The final surface seal allowed for a superior dust free wearing course.
