Reinforcement geogrid SECUGRID®

for ground stabilizationfor foundationfor retaining walls

Laid geogrids made of stretched, monolithic polyester (PET) or polypropylene (PP) flat or profile bars with welded junctions. Secugrid® geogrids combine high stiffness and low creep tendency with extreme robustness. Base Course Stabilisation & Reinforcement Secugrid® biaxial PP/PET geogrids stabilise and reinforce unbound granular layers through lateral confinement and mobilisation of tensile resistance. Typical applications are e.g. temporary roads, permanent traffic areas, railways and working platforms. Minimising lateral movement within aggregate base course Improvement of bearing capacity Extension of maintenance cycles/design life Walls and Slopes Secugrid® biaxial and uniaxial PET geogrids interact with the surrounding soil to make earth structures stronger and more durable against applied loads. Inclinations between 45° and 90° achievable Large variety of facing systems (vegetation, gabions, concrete blocks/panels) Use of locally available soils possible Fast and economic solution vs. conventional methods (concrete retaining walls) Embankment on Soft Soil Secugrid® uniaxial PET geogrids increase the stability of embankment structures on soft soils – during construction phases and in the final state. Increased stability of embankment Faster construction progress due to shorter consolidation periods Mitigation of differential settlements in case of a heterogeneous subsoil Long-term stability (low creep tendency/high long-term resistance) Load transfer platform over piles Secugrid® uniaxial PET geogrids are used to reinforce load transfer platforms over piles to control embankment stability and settlements.
