Failed Concrete Removed

Rocky Mountain Bottling has several state-of-the-art manufactuing machines.  Their purpose is high volume of bottling and distrubtion of beverages.  These machines are large and heavy enough to eventually break 10 inches thick of concrete flooring.

3 areas around 10 x 10 ft of failed concrete were removed.  Each about 10 inches deep.

Inserting Pre-Made Concrete Slabs

Rebar is already added to the pre-made concrete slabs, with 4 hooks on each corner.  The concrete slabs are 8 inches thick & about 10 x 10 ft in dimensions to fit the holes as snug as possible.

Using forklifts with weight capacities over 10 tons, the concrete slabs are inserted into the removed concrete areas.

Can You Spot The Injection Holes?

The holes were about 10 inches deep and the replaced concrete slabs were about 8 inches tall.

Our Liftech concrete leveling team had to raise the 22,000lbs of conrete ~2 inches.  Once the new slabs were lowered into the holes, injection holes were drilled into the concrete slab for poly foam injection.

The team would use heavy steel I beams to ensure the slab would remain level with the rest of the industrial concrete flooring.

Concrete Restored & Leveled

The gaps would be filled with gravel and concrete.  The process was only a few hours.  Rocky Mountain Bottling is able to turn to normal production shortly.
