Fortech GG Biaxial Geogrid
They are high-strength materials developed for the bi-directional strength needs in various applications of civil engineering. Bidirectional geogrids are produced by knitting polyester microstrands in the form of rectangles and covering them with PVC.
It provides high performance thanks to a specially designed sewing method to make it more durable at the knot points.
Fortech GG Biaxial Geogrid Application and Usage Areas
Fortech GG Biaxial Geogrid is a high-strength geogrid specially developed to be used in the following areas for stabilization purposes where strength is required in both directions. .
- Providing higher carrying capacity of runway, apron and taxiway foundations at airports
- Preventing local settlements in applications on weak ground on highways by reducing the amount of foundation and sub-base filling
- In filling works of highway expansion projects
- In ground improvements to reduce the amount of ballast and sub-ballast to prevent potential settlements in railway applications on weak ground
- It is used in the foundations of container storage areas and industrial buildings, to increase the bearing capacity of heavy foundations and to prevent local settlements.
Advantages
- It allows the filling layer to be laid on weak ground to be laid in a thinner thickness.
- A platform is created with the filling on weak soils and prevents differential settlement.
- It increases the bearing capacity of the ground by applying it in layers on weak soils.
- It reduces the amount of excavation in the excavation of existing ground that does not have the desired quality.
- It is durable, long-lasting, reliable, low-cost and resistant to seismic and dynamic loads.
