What is geogrid reinforcement?

Geogrid reinforcementIt is a high-strength geosynthetic reinforcement made of various polymers to carry the stress occurring in the tension zones in the ground. Moreover geogridsIt is a material consisting of tightly bonded synthetic fibers. The network formed by these fibers moves with the ground and adds strength to the ground.

Thus, geogrid reinforcement is used to strengthen weak soils, build retaining structures and support various structural applications.

Features:

• High tensile strength
• low creep
• longevity
• Economic

Usage areas:

• ground reinforcement: It is used for loose, soft or fine-grained soil structure. Thus, the bearing capacity of the soil increases and risks such as collapse and slippage are reduced.
• retaining structures: Geogrids are used in the construction of retaining structures such as retaining walls, pile walls and inclined structures. Thus, geogrids help increase the stability and durability of these structures.
• Structural applications: Geogrids are used in the foundations and floors of structures such as roads, bridges and buildings. Geogrids help support the weight of these structures and prevent floors from shifting.

It is an increasingly common material in civil engineering. Geogrid reinforcements, weak strengthening of floorsIt offers an economical and effective solution for the construction of retaining structures and support of various structural applications.

geogrid Some application examples of reinforcement are:

• Foundation reinforcement on roads, bridges and buildings
• retaining wallsconstruction of piled walls and inclined structures
• In drainage systems Use as filter and barrier
• In erosion control use
• Use as pipe protection in plumbing systems
