Among the expectations to be achieved in a modified or stabilized soil they are:

• improving the grounds of granular susceptible to frost (crioclastia)

• improved soil very little friction and cohesion for use as sub-base, arenas

• treatment of silt and / or clay soils to reduce its volume changes

• surface treatment against dust and mud and reducing erosion, both paths or slopes.

• Training films or impermeable to prevent leakage of water or subsurface gas rising layers.

A surface treatment can not be regarded as a characteristic of a soil stabilization, it must be seen more as a "skin" to defend the land itself against aggression typical of those we want to protect (erosion, permeability)

Surface treatments on the other hand are designed to provide a temporary or planned major maintenance solution if there is traffic on these, that the solutions to create a slab of a certain thickness.

Products for dust control or mud superficially, really suffer great physical wear (friction) also exist in the formulas designed with biodegradable properties that add to the quality intended to further degradation and consolidated market and road that actual duration is indicated for a few months.

A good product to stabilize forest and rural roads or road sub-bases, is one that being environmentally friendly and respectful of the environment and people, provide a practical, useful and highly durable solution.

If a dust control for a short duration event is intended, minimum dosages can be applied and in a few months or weeks longer to effect control dust and mud.

Soil stabilization.
