Polyester geogrids, a specialised category of geosynthetics, are the core of applications like soil reinforcement and structural support in civil engineering. This article has deep dive details of polyester geogrids in terms of properties and their production processes, along with applications and advantages they hold in the field of civil engineering.
Polyester geogrids are polymer-based materials with a grid-like structure and large apertures, mostly fabricated from polyethylene terephthalate [PET], known for high tensile strength and durability. These geogrids are used basically for the reinforcement of soils. By nature, they become quintessential in most construction and engineering works. StrataGrid™ by Strata Global is a high-performance soil reinforcement solution produced by knitting high-tenacity polyester yarn into dimensionally stable networks of apertures, forming a geometric grid that offers outstanding strength and stability.
In the manufacturing process for polyester geogrids, there are a few steps to be followed:
The applications of polyester geogrids are related to all types of civil engineering works, such as:
Adoption of polyester geogrids in civil engineering projects can benefit in a number of ways:
Polyester geogrids form a vital part of modern civil engineering in view of providing the necessary reinforcement to soils and structures. Only with the backing of such unique properties, added to the latest and most advanced techniques in their production, can engineers tackle difficult problems in soils. Interest in polyester geogrids will certainly increase with global infrastructure development. For all innovative geosynthetic solutions that will enhance durability and performance of your projects, look directly to Strata Global through its StrataGrid™ and other advanced products.
