AIL’s innovative Geotextile Reinforced Soil (GRS) technology puts the dirt to work in soil bridge solutions.
The AIL GRS technology is a patented buried bridge system originally developed for the forestry and resource industry sectors. It uses steel anchor rods to connect a Super•Cor structural plate arch to the backfill/geotextile composite and transfer the loads into the surrounding GRS mass.
How GRS technology works
GRS buried bridges are a soil-steel-bridge geotextile composite structure. Dead and live loads are supported by the reinforced soil, structure and natural or improved subgrade soils.
