Strata Geosystems industrial flooring solutions

With its three-dimensional honeycomb structure, StrataWeb geocell multiplies load-bearing capacity and stabilizes low-grade fills, reducing differential settlement and minimizing cracking risks in slabs. This means industrial flooring can be installed using materials found on-site, such as steelworks slag, coal ash, or other by-products that are usually hard to use. This reduces the carbon footprint and lessens the need for expensive imported aggregates.

Geocells create a stiffened mattress effect, distributing loads over a wider area. It also confines infill materials within their cellular structure, preventing lateral movement and compaction loss. This reduces stress on the subgrade, preventing localized deformation and securing a stable foundation for the wearing surface.

StrataGrid™ SGU 40 geogrids are embedded below the concrete layer, directly above compacted aggregate fill or subgrade. Their open mesh ensures physical interlock with aggregate particles, enhancing compaction and preventing lateral spread under load. The reinforced system acts as a mechanical stabilizer, creating a composite behavior in which tensile forces from the slab and subgrade are efficiently resisted by the geogrid’s high-strength polymer mesh. This synergy results in a stiffer and more durable industrial floor.

In addition, StrataWeb’s modular flexibility allows staged construction that is adaptive to evolving site layouts and expansion needs. Surface distress typical in forklift lanes or reefer stack zones is statistically lower where StrataWeb reinforces the substrate. while its reinforcement capabilities minimize wear and tear, extending the lifespan of the floor.
