URETEK Liquefaction Mitigation Solutions
Liquefaction Mitigation Solutions
URETEK provides ground improvement systems engineered to reduce seismic liquefaction risk and improve resilience in earthquake-prone regions. Our polymer injection technologies densify loose, saturated soils and enhance shear resistance—minimizing the potential for catastrophic ground failure during seismic events.
Liquefaction Hazards We Address
Sudden loss of soil strength during earthquake shaking.
Uplift or displacement of buried structures or utilities.
Lateral spreading that damages foundations and pavements.
Post-event settlement and infrastructure misalignment.
Liquefaction-prone zones beneath levees, bridges, or embankments.
URETEK Liquefaction Mitigation Systems
Deep Injection®: Compacts and binds granular soils to resist liquefaction.
Soil Densification: Increases soil density to reduce void ratio and cyclic strain.
Void Filling: Reduces saturation and collapsible zones beneath infrastructure.
Permeation Grouting: Forms stable matrices in loose, cohesionless soils .
Targeted Polymer Curtain Grouting: Isolates at-risk layers beneath critical structures.
