Uniaxial geogrid is made of high molecular polymer, is extruded into sheet and then punched into regular mesh pattern,and finally in the longitudinal direction. This process makes it possessed of high tensile strength in the longitudinal direction.The tensile strength can reach to 100-200Mpa,and the elongation is 4%-10%.The structure offers ideal force carrying and diffusing chain system. It is suitable for different kinds of soil. It is a prevailing reinforcement material.
Application:
Uniaxial geogrid is kind of high strength geosynthetic. It has extensive applications in dyke, tunnel, pier, highway, railway and building.
Its main applications are as follows:
1. Enhance roadbed and effectively diffuse its load to improve its stability and bearing capacity and extend its service life; 2. Can bear more alternate load; 3. Prevent roadbed distortion and crack caused by the loss of roadbed materials; 4. Increase the self-supporting property of fill behind retaining wall, decrease the earth pressure of retaining wall, save cost, increase service life and reduce maintenance expense; 5. Combine anchor sprouting concrete construction method to give side slope maintenance, which not only saves investment by 30%-50% but also reduces erection time by one time or above. 6. To increase geogrid in the roadbed and surface of highways can reduce flexure, track and put off the flawing appearance by 3-9 folds and reduce the thickness of structural layer by 36% 7. It is applicable to any kind of soil, not necessary to draw material from other place, saving time and labor; 8. Simple and rapid construction will greatly reduce construction cost. |
