Safe and Secure
1. Inhibit Differential Settlement
Prevents settlement in one direction by spreading soil stress in multiple directions.
A stress bearing rigid body that suppresses rotation while equalizing stress, therefore preventing differential settlement of the building.
2. Eliminate the Risk of Differences in Level Caused by Shifting Pile
The building's foundation is constructed to behave as a combined unit with the ground.
Prevents potential damage to undergroud beams, slab and underground piping caused by shifting piling.
3. Minimize Damage Caused by Liquefaction
Reinforced ground covering sediment prevents liquefaction right under buildings.
When liquefaction occurs, TNF's enclosure effect inhibits settlement and tilting of the building.
Ecological
1. Minimize Impact to Underground Environment
Construction can be done without disrupting the underground natural environment such as the water line.
2. Minimize Impact to Underground Environment
The depth of the reinforced ground layer can be less than 5 meters.
Minimal impact on the natural underground environment, such as subterranean water veins.
3. Minimize CO2 Emissions
Significantly reduce the amount of materials used compared to other construction methods.
Reduce the operating time of heavy equipment by shortening the construction time.
Low-Cost
1. Slab Foundation Joined with Reinforced Ground Layer
A unique construction method in which the slab foundation and reinforced ground are integrated as a single unit.
Significantly reduces the need to use rebar, concrete, formwork etc.
2. Improve Site's Existing Ground
Improving the surface of on-site ground. possible to use the soil disposal to improvement.
Minimize the cost of carrying out the soil disposal or bringing in gravel into site
3. Shorten Construction Time
TNF method allows for pouring directly into ground reinforcement without using any formwork.
By reducing the need for extensive formwork, construction times can be kept short to save valuable time and money.
4. Reduce Removal Cost
With TNF method, the reinforced ground can be used again as a base, thus significantly reducing removal cost.
Savings in removal costs in the case of an order for building removal due to a fixed-term land leasehold.
The removal cost is about one-half of the construction cost
With the conventional construction method
