Application of Geogrid
Geogrid
Geogrid is widely used in road construction and slope protection applications where high tensile reinforcement is required. In road construction, geogrid is installed within the base or subbase layers to improve load distribution, increase bearing capacity, and reduce rutting over weak subgrades. This enhances pavement performance and extends service life while reducing overall construction costs. In slope protection works, geogrid reinforces the soil mass by providing tensile strength, improving shear resistance, and stabilizing steep slopes or embankments. By strengthening the soil structure, geogrid systems ensure long-term stability and reliable performance under traffic loads and environmental conditions.
