¿Why Rocamix has cost 25% and even 65% less?

The Price in calculating the use of system depends on the answer to these questions.

1.
How much it will cost with traditional methods ?
2.
What doses - determine by the lab studies- see the example below – of product forming the Rocamix System that should be used in the worksite -> the doses of both products multiply by the unitary price -> give the price of the products +the application in the place =total price in the application the Rocamix system.
3.
How much time it will last the work without any maintenance or any rehabilitation.?

The answer to the question 1 and 2 are easily obtains and like that we can have a indication...

Now we should analyses another factor as well 3 to obtain the real cost comparable Rocamix System with other work done with a traditional cost.

The Price of maintenance or rehabilitation

Considering the use of the Rocamix System doesn’t need maintenance or rehabilitation in at least 15 or 20 years – see the chapter Rocamix System Guarantee – we must compare a work made with traditional methods , and if it had need maintenance or rehabilitation during the years .

It means that we must do the math to k now the real cost of the Rocamix System Against a more traditional or convectional work .

Example

If a road is it made with traditional methods = 2/3 years before it   maintenance.
If it is a Rocamix Road=15 or 20 years
So if we apply the formula
Rocamix System =Price of the System
Conventional Systems= Traditional price +(rehabilitation price/3)

Once we calculate these prices we can observe that

The Rocamix Price is Always less Expensive to a 25% or to even a 65% if we compare both prices.

Determinate the cost of the Rocamix System is determinate the concentration need it in the product.
And any Rocamix implementation starts with a soil survey to be treated in the laboratory which must meet various parameters study
The First parameter is the classification of the soil and Atterberg limits that determine the dose Rocamix to use. These doses were frozen into 3 types. Rocamix 1 (R1) = 40 liter / m3, Rocamix 2 (R2) = 50 liter / m3, Rocamix 3 (R3) = 60 liter / m3. This classification, specific to Rocamix is ​​based mainly on the chemical composition of the soil determines the floor reaction mixture with Rocamix capacity, and must respond to the Theorem Rocamix 10 + 10 + 20. The amount of cement is based on the classification of the soil and ranges from 7.5 kg. 25 kg. per m3. See, soil classification
It is important to remember that Rocamix can also be used for soil treatment to waterproof water reserve fund or for fund déchèterries or similar.

The second parameter is the thickness determination of the treated soil . They are the geometric conditions of the structural packet, that it comes from the They are the geometric conditions of the structural packet, calculate because it future use, and they determine the thickness of the treatment. The soil Lab trial using the Rocamix System with it different quantities trails.

Use one of the computer programs to calculate the thickness

Volumen of the soil 6,00m X 0,15m x 1000,00m = 900 m3
Quantity of the product (treatment 15 cm) 0,40 liter/m3 x 900 m3=360 Rocamix litters concentrated
