Geogrid functions and the range of application
Geogrid is the use of polypropylene, polyethylene chloride and other polymer by thermoplastic or molded two-dimensional grid or three-dimensional grid screen. As a major geosynthetics material, it has the following main functions:
1. Enhance bearing capacity: gold standard geogrid can significantly improve the bearing capacity of the foundation and subgrade, and the load will be evenly distributed to a wider subbase through its grid structure, so as to reduce the thickness of the base and reduce the project cost.
2. Settlement control: in the treatment of weak foundation, geogrid can effectively control the development of settlement and extend the service life of roads and engineering.
3. Reinforcement function: laid at the bottom of the asphalt or cement pavement, can reduce the rut depth, enhance the fatigue resistance of the pavement, reduce the thickness of the pavement, and save the cost.
4. Stable slope: used to strengthen embankment slope, retaining wall and river seawall, which can significantly improve the stability of slope, reduce the area and reduce the cost.
5. Corrosion resistance and anti-aging: through special process treatment, gold standard geogrid has good corrosion resistance and anti-aging performance, suitable for all kinds of harsh environment.
Scope of application of geogrid
Geogrid is widely used in many fields due to its unique function and performance:
1. Municipal engineering: including the construction of urban roads, Bridges, tunnels, subways and other infrastructure, to improve the overall stability and durability of the project.
2. Highway engineering: used to improve the carrying capacity of highway pavement, enhance the stability of embankment and slope, and reduce the incidence of cracks and damage.
3. Water conservancy projects: in the construction of water conservancy infrastructure such as reservoirs, embankments and sluices, improve the water erosion resistance performance and water storage capacity of the project.
4. Construction and real estate: enhance the stability of the building foundation, improve the seismic performance of the building, and extend the service life.
5. Railway and rail transit: improve the stability of railway subgrade and track, and ensure the stability and safety of train operation.
6. Landscape and greening: improve the soil retention ability of the green belt, and enhance the beauty and ecological benefits of the streets.
7. Agriculture and rural areas: for making supports and insulation for agricultural greenhouses to improve the carrying capacity and stability of rural roads and sites.
