to expand during freezing temperatures and contract during dry spells. Expansion and contraction is a major cause of
damage to building foundations and normally leads to the structure requiring underpinning.
Compaction increases the density of the material and therefore increases its load bearing capacity. Reduces air voids
and therefore reduces the risk of subsidence, expansion and contraction, due to ingress of water.
Various methods have been employed in the past to specify the compaction required for various applications. The factors to
consider are, material properties, layer thickness, pressure applied, vibration and number of passess. Greater understanding of how

The reason for the act is to ensure repairs and reinstatements are carried out to a higher standard and ultimately last longer. This in

Altrad Belle studied the act then developed and patented equipment to enable contractors to comply with the act's requirements.
Altrad Belle 'Dual Force' base plates are divided into two areas providing two stages of compaction.
Stage 1: The full base area compacts the material like a standard machine.
