PP Biaxial Geogrid
1.Distribution of loads and therefore reduction in stress concentration over the soil.
2.The geogrids structural junctions, rigid ribs and thick walls help lock aggregate,
increasing its shear resistance.
3.As a result when a vertical load is applied the aggregate is restrained by the ribs
reducing deformation. (Lateral Restraint)
4.Decrease in long term deformation (creep).
5.Increase in load distribution. (Bearing Capacity Increase)
6.Controls differential settlement.
PP Extruded Biaxial Geogrid is manufactured from Polypropylene, from the process of extruding, longitudinal stretching and transverse stretching. And have high tensile strength at both longitudinal (MD) and transverse (TD) directions. It makes soil reinforced with its excellent structure stability and strong mechanical interlock performance.
Application:
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.
