The Use Of Geogrid

The geogrid is used to increase the bearing capacity of the road (foundation) and prolong the service life of the road (foundation). The geogrid is used to prevent the road (ground) surface from collapsing or cracking, and to keep the ground beautiful and tidy. The geogrid is convenient for construction, time-saving, labor-saving, shortening the construction period, and reducing maintenance costs. Geogrids are used to prevent cracks in culverts. The geogrid is used to strengthen the soil slope and prevent soil erosion. The geogrid is used to reduce the thickness of the cushion layer and save the cost. The geogrid is used to support the stable green environment of the side slope grass planting mat. The geogrid can effectively block the transmission of seismic force and play an important role in enhancing the seismic stiffness, strength and stability of the embankment. The successful application of geogrid is expected to reduce various embankment diseases common in high-intensity earthquake areas and improve the road's earthquake resistance and disaster reduction capabilities. However, the current seismic design codes for highways and railways do not make corresponding regulations on the seismic performance of embankments reinforced by geogrids.
