GreenBlue Urban are proud to launch the next generation of RootSpace® system – the most innovative soil cell in the industry. Essentially a pavement support system – designed for maximum soil and rooting volume, to be ‘utility friendly’, with economic freight and industry-leading strength characteristics.
RootSpace Generation 2 has some excellent improvements:
- New 400mm high version to enable a wider range of tree pit depths – now 5 different height configurations
- Faster, simpler and easier assembly process
- Further increase the load bearing capacity
- Enable easy re-excavation for maintenance of utilities
Full structural capabilities are available but by way of an example, the following table uses a 4.5 tonne wheel load on different RootSpace configurations – this is based on a typical macadam/asphalt type road construction and a standard GBU tree pit specification.
RootSpace configuration | Height | Subbase DTp Type 1 depth | Macadam depth * | Total depth |
400 single | 475mm | 150mm | 150mm | 300mm |
600 single | 675mm | 300mm | 150mm | 450mm |
400 + 400 | 875mm | 300mm | 150mm | 450mm |
400 + 600 | 1075mm | 325mm | 150mm | 475mm |
600 + 600 | 1275mm | 325mm | 150mm | 475mm |
Total depth of bound bituminous layers (Minimum construction depths for a full range of wheel loads are available separately)
