- Erosion beneath warehouse concrete slab floor causing uneven joints and rocking slabs
- Forklift traffic travelling over the unsupported slabs caused the slabs to rock up and down and created breaks and fractures called “joint spalling”
- Rocking and unlevel slabs were causing jolts and bumps to forklifts, leading to falling loads and safety issues
Solution
- Clean out all joints and remove the debris
- Inject TerraThane™ 24-003 polyurethane on a 4 ft grid pattern to fill joints, voids and stabilize rocking slabs
Results
- Stabilized over 130 ft of slabs
- Work performed to minimize operational interruption
- Fast cure time ensured the installation locations would be drive-able during the same day as the installation
