Bi-Axial Geogrids are typically used beneath paved and unpaved applications that support vehicular traffic. They improve the structural integrity of roadways by confining and distributing load forces. They are used over weak sub-grades, thus preventing costly over excavation and granular replacement and stable sub-grades to reduce the granular thickness and extend the performance of the road structure.
They provide support for the construction of access roads, haul road, highways and many other applications.
Bi-Axial Geogrids
Bi-axial
Geogrids provide reinforcement of roadway pavements through superior
stiffness and interlocking capabilities. Road design has never been easier.
Road Improvement
Bi-axial Geogrids improve roads, highways and other heavily trafficked surfaces by:
- Reducing material thicknesses
- Simplifying construction
- Increasing pavement life
- Reducing future road maintenance
Subgrade Improvement
Bi-Axial gegrids are especially helpful when encountering soft subgrades.
The benefits include:
- Use less aggregate
- Eliminate or reduce sub-excavation
- More consistent compaction
- Controlled settlement
