Geotechnical fill
Lightweight embankment over soft ground and backfill behind retaining walls, designing out settlement and lateral pressure.
Geotechnical & infrastructure
Leca Infra 10–30
Product code ALI-1030
Lightweight embankment fill at a fifth of the weight of soil.
10–30 mm at 250–300 kg/m³ with an internal friction angle of about 35°.
- Grain size
- 10–30 mm
- Loose bulk density
- 250–300 kg/m³
Description
For road embankments over soft ground, backfill behind retaining walls, and reducing lateral earth pressure.
Its free-draining structure removes pore water pressure behind the retaining structure — the factor behind a large share of retaining wall failures.
Packaging & shipping
- Bulk tipper 60–90 m³
Standards
- EN 15732
