Products Description
Biaxial geogrids are designed to handle stresses in two orthogonal directions, making them particularly suitable for applications where load distribution occurs in multiple directions. Their evenly dimensioned apertures allow for better soil interaction and support, which is beneficial in various civil engineering projects, such as:
· Base stabilization: They can be used in road construction to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the subgrade.
· Reinforcement in embankments: Biaxial geogrids help distribute loads more evenly, preventing deformation and failure.
· Erosion control: Their structure can support vegetation and soil, reducing erosion in slopes and channels.
Notes MD = Machine Direction; TD = Transverse Direction
While they are effective in multidirectional stress environments, it's important to note that biaxial geogrids generally do not match the tensile strength of uniaxial geogrids, which excel in applications requiring high strength in a single direction. Therefore, the choice between the two types depends on the specific requirements of the project and the nature of the applied stresses.
