Application of waffle mold in foundation 2
Application of waffle mold in foundation 2 : Let’s check together the application of waffle mold in foundation 2 at PSP (manufacturer of waffle roof and waffle mold).
Expansive soil with a high volume of expansive minerals causes large cracks in the earth’s surface. Clay soils containing montmorillonite and bentonite minerals can have high expansion potential. Dealing with the effects of expanding soil is one of the most fundamental challenges in geotechnical engineering. In case of swelling, these soils cause cracks in the foundation of existing buildings.
Expansive soil will expand or contract when the groundwater level changes. Expansive soils also cause asymmetric settlement in the building. Flowable soils completely lose their resistance due to earthquake forces and behave like a fluid. Reambandeh soils usually have an open structure and the bond between particles is weak.
These soils behave in a loose manner and in case of saturation without change in the incoming load or subjected to vibration force, it settles a lot and its carrying capacity is greatly reduced. In nature, there are soils that, under the same stress, will show a very large decrease in volume with an increase in moisture content. Such soils are known as rembandeh soils.

In general, the phenomenon of collapse can be defined as the sudden collapse of soil due to the loss of resistance of the binding agent of soil particles. Rembandeh soils are mostly found in hot and dry areas. In order to implement the project in expanding problematic soils, plastic waffle molds are placed on the problematic soil.
