Classification and characteristics of geogrids and their applications

Geogrid is a major geosynthetic material, which has unique performance and efficacy compared to other geosynthetic materials. Commonly used as reinforcement materials for reinforced soil structures or composite materials.

Geogrids are divided into four categories: plastic geogrids, steel plastic geogrids, fiberglass geogrids, and polyester warp knitted polyester geogrids. A geogrid is a two-dimensional grid or three-dimensional grid with a certain height formed by thermoplastic or molded polymer materials such as polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. When used in civil engineering, it is called a geogrid.

Characteristic
With high strength, low creep, and adaptability to various environmental soils, it can fully meet the use of tall retaining walls in high-grade highways.
It can effectively improve the interlocking and interlocking effects of the reinforced bearing surface, greatly enhance the bearing capacity of the foundation, effectively constrain the lateral displacement of the soil, and enhance the stability performance of the foundation.
Compared with traditional grilles, it has the characteristics of high strength, strong bearing capacity, corrosion resistance, anti-aging, high friction coefficient, uniform perforation, convenient construction, and long service life.
It is more suitable for deep-sea operations and embankment reinforcement, fundamentally solving technical problems such as low strength, poor corrosion resistance, and short service life caused by long-term seawater erosion of other materials used in gabions.
Can effectively avoid construction damage caused by equipment crushing and damage during the construction process

Application area 
Suitable for enhancing the roadbed and pavement of various highways, railways, and airports.
Suitable for permanent bearing foundation reinforcement in large parking lots and dock cargo yards.
Suitable for slope protection of railways and highways.
Applicable culvert reinforcement.
Suitable for secondary reinforcement of soil slopes after unidirectional tensile geogrid reinforcement, further enhancing soil slopes, preventing soil erosion, and strengthening mines and tunnels.
