About the project

State Highway 30, managed by the Karnataka PWD, is a vital link between Goa and the Uttara Kannada region. The road traverses through lush green forests and is surrounded by natural beauty. The area is populated with sugar factories and carries heavy traffic of agricultural produce to and from these factories.

The sub-base soil in the area is rather weak and has poor drainage characteristics. Furthermore, the region experiences heavy rainfall, and water accumulation was a constant challenge. As a result, the surface of the highway became undulating and developed potholes. The client approached Strata to resolve these issues for a section of the highway. Considering time, economy, and technical factors, the StrataWeb® engineered solution was finalized. Adding to the challenge, the awarded road stretch was located at the base of a slope where water accumulation was highest.

The use of StrataWeb® proved to be a rapid and successful solution. Smooth movement of heavy vehicles was restored with minimal downtime. Traffic movement improved with increased speeds, enhancing overall productivity and fuel efficiency.

Ground improvement using StrataWeb® geocells and StrataGrid® Biaxial (SGB) geogrids

This project involved ground improvement below the reinforced soil wall structure at National Highway 28, Gorakhpur, UP. This highway provides the main connectivity from India to Nepal, also connecting main cities in Uttar Pradesh. The site is in a high-flood zone and has a very high water table during monsoon months. Therefore, the conventional method of soil replacement was not feasible. Also, solutions like stone columns, sand piling were time-consuming and very expensive.
