The local club is installing 18 new permanent baskets. For the target sleeve foundations they are using a different product instead of concrete; it's called Postloc.
It's a 2-part chemical mixture that you mix on site. After you pour it, the Postloc expands into a foam to efficiently fill up the excavation and it adheres to any solid surfaces it reaches (e.g. rocks, the sleeve).
Anyone have experience using this? Or similar products?
We have no vehicle access and the basket locations are in steep and rocky terrain. This Postloc stuff is going to be MUCH easier to carry in, compared with bags of concrete and gallons of water.
Looking online, it'll be $20-25 per sleeve. So a little bit more expensive than Quikrete, but not terribly. Certainly not a major expense considering the baskets themselves cost an order of magnitude higher.
(I apologize if there's already a thread about this, I tried some basic prerube-ing.)
