RESIN WORK
Case Study: Resin Works Application at the Olympic Park, Stratford
The project involved the preparation of the site at the Olympic Park in Stratford for resin-bound surfacing, aimed at enhancing the aesthetics and functionality of walkways, pathways, and other areas within the park. Our team completed the initial asphalt works, creating a solid foundation to allow resin specialists to perform the final surface application.
Challenges and Objectives
Challenge: The main challenge was to ensure that the asphalt works were completed to a high standard, providing a stable, smooth, and level base for the resin-bound surfacing.
Objective: To create a durable, attractive, and low-maintenance surface for pedestrian walkways and areas of the park. The resin surface needed to complement the park's aesthetics while meeting the necessary durability and safety requirements for high foot traffic areas.
Work Undertaken
Site Preparation:
Surveying and Assessing:
Our team conducted a full assessment of the existing conditions of the site to identify any specific areas requiring improvement before asphalt works.
Asphalt Works: We laid high-quality asphalt, ensuring a solid, smooth, and durable surface.
Key Detail:
We ensured a seamless transition between existing surfaces and newly prepared asphalt areas.
Surface Quality Control: Strict quality control processes were implemented to ensure the level and finish of the asphalt met the specifications Mrequired for resin application.
Coordination with Resin Specialists:
We worked closely with resin specialists to ensure the timing and quality of the project remained aligned. This involved sharing data on the thickness, texture, and layout of the asphalt works to ensure the resin would bond effectively and perform optimally.
Environmental Considerations:
Given the location in the Olympic Park, sustainability and environmental considerations were taken into account. We ensured all asphalt materials used were sourced responsibly and adhered to environmental guidelines.
Water drainage and surface permeability were key considerations, ensuring that the resin-bound system would not only look good but also perform well in all weather conditions.
