Gebirgsstabilisierung

Rock Mass Stabilization

Protection from unconsolidated rock or rubble sliding down and of fault zones; in general implemented between interior construction and rock mass

Squeezing rock requires special measures allowing for the discharge of one-dimensional pressure loads into the surface.

Injection measures

  • Stabilization and reinforcement in the back in tunneling (e.g. according to NATM (New Austrian Tunneling Method)
  • Filling of the overcut between tunnel shell and rock mass, stabilization against rock pressure
  • Combined sealing and stabilization in case of in-situ water

Material selection

  • Usually PU injections, often in combination with cement; reaction time and foaming behavior adapted to project 
  • Silicate resin injections also for stabilizing filling measures
  • Silicate resin foams or acrylate gel curtains in case of loose, sandy ground

Rock mass stabilization entails void filling, anchor bonding, heading face stabilization, pre-excavation grouting and umbrella injection as superordinate measures and is combined with permanent sealing measures.

Products Used

  • Hybrid Injection System

    WEBAC® HIS

    • Consolidation Line

    WEBAC HIS is a hybrid injection resin used as a reactive component for large-volume cement grouting and holds National Technical Approval. It is characterized by rapid strength development and cures even underwater to form a stabilizing and sealing material. The resin is used to secure Foundation Pits and tunnel structures, as well as for subsoil stabilization and void filling.

  • PU Injection Resins

    WEBAC® PURseal

    • Consolidation Line

    WEBAC PURseal is a fast-curing, permanently sealing PU injection resin. It cures into a compact, high-strength material without contact with water, while it reacts with a slight foaming action upon contact with water. The resin is used for subsoil stabilization and rock reinforcement, as well as for sealing against flowing and pressurized water in Foundation Pits, tunnels, and transportation infrastructure projects.

  • PU Injection Resins

    WEBAC® PURseal M SL5

    • Consolidation Line

    WEBAC PURseal M SL5 is a relatively fast-curing PU injection resin. It cures into a compact, high-strength material without contact with water, but reacts with slight foaming when it comes into contact with water. The resin is used for subsoil stabilization and rock reinforcement, as well as for securing foundation pits and tunnel structures.

  • PU Injection Foam Resins

    WEBAC® PURstop 1C

    • Consolidation Line

    WEBAC PURstop 1C is a single-component, polyurethane-based injection resin with a catalyst. Upon contact with water, it reacts rapidly and expands vigorously, forming an elastic, adaptable foam that reliably stops water ingress. The reaction time can be adjusted using the WEBAC PURstop ACC 1C catalyst. It is suitable for sealing Foundation Pits, for solidification of loose soils, and for filling voids.
