The hexagonal TriAx (TX) geogrid is used for the stabilisation of aggregates for the construction of roads, working platforms and other trafficked areas. The geogrid’s design allows us to optimise fill interlock and confinement as well as better control the movement of aggregate particles. Applying TX helps to achieve a stronger, stiffer aggregate layer with increased load spreading capacity and deformation resistance.

The solution is applied in a wide range of structures from road foundations and pavement layers to rail trackbed, to heavy-duty loaded areas and other trafficked areas. Using TX geogrid can provide aggregate savings of up to 50%, as well as reduce project costs, necessary transportation, total construction time and CO₂.

The uniaxial geogrids (RE) were developed by Tensar in the late 1980s and nowadays are applied worldwide. This geogrid is manufactured from high quality grades of HDPE. It is extremely durable and resistant to long-term chemical and biological degradation which makes RE geogrids suitable for the use in chemically aggressive environment and for earth retaining structures with a life cycle of up to 120 years.

The uniaxial geogrids can carry high tensile loads applied in one direction. The fill material interlocks in the open aperture structure safely which results in effective load transfer from the soil to the geogrid. The material has superior junction strength which provides high strength secure connections to other rolls of geogrid or facing elements.

The welded steel mesh system is a proved and cost-effective solution for slopes. The mesh is rigid and is held in place by the geogrid and fill material. The mesh units serve as face support during construction, so external formwork is not needed, and reliably maintains the designed slope shape during operation.

There is no requirement for an external face support or formwork, owing to the rigid steel mesh face being braced internally and held in place by the geogrid and fill material during construction. This system is used for capital structures, however, its low cost allows it to be used as a temporary engineering solution. A wide range of finishes can be used, including greensward and other landscaping.

Reinforced concrete blocks can often be the preferred face option. The strictly vertical surface is controlled through a unique connection technology. Formwork or external support are not required during construction. Block systems offer both aesthetic appeal and structural stability, providing the ideal solution for almost any application, be it transportation, industrial, commercial, or residential.
