Conventional methods
1.It requires large amounts of natural resources to create a subbase.
Often stone aggregates are transported over long distances.
The higher the load capacity, the thicker the subbase required with more and more aggregates, and the longer it takes to settle.
The developed subbase is not waterproof and is prone to swelling or shrinkage under dry and wet cycling conditions resulting in permanent cracks in the sub-base which flatten to the upper bitumen layer.
It takes a long time to build.
Shorter lifespan due to permanent damage to the subbase.
More expensive due to the effect of increased transportation cost.
There is no uniformity in construction due to increased dependence on man.
Conventional methods
Local soil is sufficient. Maintains the depletion of natural resources.
It saves ever-increasing fuel costs, because it does not require stones at all.
It is enough just to treat the soil 300 mm deep with cement mixture using advanced machinery and technologies. It provides for the construction of faster roads up to 1.0 kilometer per day.
The subbase created by AberCrete is completely weather resistant and not prone to water ingress which is often a major cause of subbase damage.
Significantly reduces the overall construction time and reduces carbon emissions.
Extended durability and long life until the first maintenance thanks to the secure subbase created.
The fixed costs are only minor differences worth up to 2-3%.
Uniformity in creating a drivable surface using advanced computer-controlled machines.
