Jig-Brix™
Jig-Brix™ is an interlocking, mortar-less brick system, produced from a recycled mono polymer, developed to overcome the problem of the failure of ironwork installations within the highway.
In conjunction with Nottingham University and three other interested parties a Government LINK funded project was set up to investigate failed ironwork within the carriageway. This problem of failure is costing several million pounds to rectify each year.
One solution was the use of Jig-Brix™ sections under the ironwork for reinstatements of manholes and gully-pots, which would alleviate the problem of premature cracking in the surrounding asphalt, caused by the likely mismatch between the in-situ stiffness of the road ironwork installation and the movement of the road surface. The results are shown in the attached paper from Nottingham University.
