Invitation to Webinar: Results of IKT-Compare Evaluation of Flowable Backfill

We would like to share the results of IKT’s comparative evaluation of flowable backfill for sewer pipes with you in a webinar on 12th November 2020. Also known as Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), flowable backfills were installed in realistic simulated pipe trenches and assessed for a range of performance attributes including: flowability, hardening, pipe support and ease of subsequent excavation.

Use of flowable backfill offers many benefits – narrower trenches as backfill compacting equipment is not needed, smaller quantities of material, relatively fast hardening, potentially better support for the pipe, and easy re-excavation. But, users need to understand the technology to ensure the desired performance is always achieved.
