Differences and Characteristics Between Biaxial Geogrid and Uniaxial Geogrid

Differences and Characteristics Between Biaxial Geogrid and Uniaxial Geogrid

Biaxial geogrids and uniaxial geogrids are the prevailing types of geogrids. A geogrid is characterized as a geosynthetic material comprising interconnected parallel sets of tensile ribs with openings of adequate size to enable the infiltration of surrounding soil, stone, or other geotechnical materials (Koerner 1998). In simpler terms, geogrids can be described as plastic lattice structures with distinct technical properties and functions.

Permanent Erosion Control

Permanent Erosion Control

A geotextile can help to mitigate the negative impact of soil erosion. Water erosion can be absolutely devastating to property. Sometimes the erosion happens very quickly and catastrophically due to a major storm event such as a hurricane or tropical storm. More often, it develops slowly as the ocean’s tide, the current of a river, or years of storm water runoff work with time to eat away at land and property with equally devastating results.

Geogrid Manufacturer

A geogrid is geosynthetic material used to reinforce soils and similar materials. Geogrids are commonly used to reinforce retaining walls, as well as subbases or subsoils below roads or structures. Soils pull apart under tension. Geogrids are commonly made of polymer materials, such as polyester, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene or polypropylene.

Geogrid Reinforcement

Geogrids are used mostly for reinforcement purposes considering their peculiar structure is able to provide the necessary strength to reinforce the filling material and their capacity to confine the soil partciles that lodge in the openings of the grid itself. Monoaxial type are characterized by having a main tensile strength, normally in the MD direction
