Road Construction Material Polypropylene Geogrid - BX

Biaxial Geogrids for Load Transfer Platforms

Biaxial Geogrids Description

Biaxial geogrid can be used in a wide range of civil engineering applications such as basal reinforcement, ground stabilisation, aggregate reduction, piling platforms and foundation engineering in paved and unpaved roads and temporary works.

Biaxial GeogridFeatures

• Reduce costs- apertures designed to work with wide range of fill allowing for the use of
  less expensive soils
• Reduce depth of excavation required on unsuitable sub grades
• Increase developable areas without incurring cost of unattractive and expensive retaining wall
• Stabilizing slopes increases the strength of soil giving it a higher factor of safety and greater
  seismic durability
• Reduces maintenance and extends the life of the pavement by reducing differential settlement
  of roadways
• Durability – high resistance to soil micro-organisms and chemicals, UV radiation and mechanical damage

Biaxial GeogridApplication

Geogrids focus almost entirely on reinforcement applications, although separation may be a function. The following are examples of a few applications.

• Slope Reinforcement- embankments over soft soils, extra-steep earthwork slopes, landfill liner systems, and industrial and contaminated land reclamation
• Base Reinforcement- foundations of roadbeds, parking lots, railroad tracks beds, airports runways, permanent unpaved roads, construction haul roads
• Wall Reinforcement- retaining walls, sea walls, airport noise barriers, and bridge supports
• Berm Reinforcement - spillway channels for earthen dams, levees, and waste contaminated ponds, banks for earthen canals and waterways Polypropylene Biaxial Geogrid
