Jablite 50mm Claymaster EPS Clay Heave Protection Board - 2.4m x 1.2m
Product code: IFG42100
Lightweight compressible-fill, low-density moisture resistant expanded polystyrene void-fill material developed to protect foundations from clay heave, shrinkage or soil movement.
Product description
Claymaster works by surrounding the pile cap with a layer of pink EPS, reducing pressure on the ground beams as the surrounding clay expands and contracts.
Shrinkable clays are soils containing a large proportion of mineral particles of less than 0.002mm in diameter that produce an extremely cohesive soil type when wet, but shrinks to a crumbly, crazed structure when dry.
The expansion and contraction process during wet and dry periods is known as ?clay heave? which can cause severe problems with foundations.
