Project Background: Mumbai-Goa Highway (NH 66) Widening This is India's west coast arterial route. Every monsoon, the same problem: potholes, cracks, and mud pumping. Root cause analysis: Subgrade: high-plasticity clay (black cotton soil) Rainwater infiltrates, fines pump up into granular base Ba...

Project Background Palembang Toll Road, Sumatra This 15km section crosses swampy terrain along the Musi River. Soil report showed 8-12 meters of high-moisture soft clay.  Traditional solution (full stone replacement): Excavate all soft soil, backfill with premium aggregate Cost: ~$45/m&sup...

Application Scenario A 5-hectare highbush blueberry farm in British Columbia, Canada. Soil is acidic loam with annual rainfall of about 1200mm. To control inter-row weeds, reduce herbicide use, and maintain soil moisture, the farm conducted a comparative trial in a newly planted area in 2019: tra...

Application Scenario A community garden in Phoenix, Arizona, USA, with over 300 days of annual sunshine and summer surface temperatures reaching up to 60°C. In 2020, two different types of weed barrier fabric were installed simultaneously in 150 of the garden's 300 planting beds: a common low...
