AI-Powered Durable Spray-Applied Trench Breakers
Groundworks provides spray-applied trench breaker solutions for remote and high-traffic locations. These long-lasting barriers stabilize trenches, prevent erosion, and protect pipelines by forming custom-fit structures directly within the trench.
Long-Lasting Trench Breakers for Unique Applications
Groundworks’ spray-applied trench breakers are custom-formed to each trench, providing durable stabilization, erosion control, and pipeline protection. This efficient, labor-saving solution is ideal for remote locations and complex terrains.
Spray-Applied Trench Breakers for Stabilization and Protection
Trench breakers are spray-applied within the trench using a self-contained rig. The structure is built in layers, conforming to the trench’s unique dimensions. Once the pipe is set, the trench breaker is completed by spraying over the pipe to form a stabilizing pillow. This process prevents lateral and horizontal soil movement, stabilizes pipelines, and creates an electrostatic barrier to protect against external forces.
Indicators That Trench Breaker Solutions Are Needed
Infrastructure challenges in trenches and pipelines can compromise project integrity. These signs indicate a need for trench breaker solutions:
- Erosion or Soil Movement: Visible soil displacement near trenches.
- Pipeline Instability: Signs of lateral or horizontal shifting within the trench.
- Voids or Uneven Trenches: Gaps or irregular dimensions in trench areas.
- Challenging Installation Locations: Remote or uneven terrains requiring adaptable solutions.
- Pipeline Corrosion Risk: Electrostatic exposure threatening pipeline integrity.
Benefits of Utility Trench Breakers
Groundworks’ trench breaker solutions provide adaptable, long-lasting stabilization and erosion control for critical infrastructure.
- Spray-Applied for Custom Fit: Forms to the unique dimensions of the trench.
- Less Labor-Intensive: Eliminates the need for manual sandbag installation.
- Stabilizes Soil and Pipelines: Prevents lateral and horizontal soil movement.
- Electrostatic Barrier: Protects pipelines from external electrostatic forces.
- Ideal for Remote Locations: Self-contained spray rigs allow for efficient installation in challenging environments.

Products We Use
Polyurethane Injections
What We Do
Our high-density polyurethane is injected beneath foundations to stabilize the soil, filling voids and reconnecting displaced soil layers. This quick-curing solution provides immediate structural support without the need for extensive excavation.
How It Works
Polyurethane is precisely injected at critical points to re-establish soil connectivity and reinforce foundation stability. It quickly expands to fill gaps and bind loose soil, creating a dependable support system under the structure.
