Installed in layers between wall courses and extending into the soil behind a wall geogrid stabilizes the soil and so extends the retaining capacity of the wall.
Retaining wall reinforcement grid.
Engineered for durability and long life versa grid geogrid soil reinforcement is a high performance soil reinforcement composed of high molecular weight woven polyester yarns with a polymeric coating.
The first cylinder is just compacted material.
The geogrid holds the soil in place to allow the retaining wall to function.
Use the soil reinforcement chart to determine the size of ab grid you will need and how many layers your retaining wall requires.
When grid is needed depends on the wall building material but also the soils being retained.
It is available in 3 ft.
Geogrid is a geosynthetic material commonly made of one or more polymers that is used to reinforce soil behind retaining walls.
The patented keystone compac a leading commercial retaining wall product features an open core design and a pin connection system.
Ab reinforcement grid is biaxial which means it has the same strength in both directions and can be simply rolled out along the wall.
The sand castle test takes two cylinders of soil and applies vertical force to see how the soil performs.
Properly designed versa lok walls with versa grid soil reinforcement can be constructed to heights of 50 feet or more.
When is geogrid needed in a retaining wall.
Both wall systems are comprised of dry cast concrete keystone compac modular units and ntpep evaluated tencate miragrid xt polyester geogrid soil reinforcement by tencate geosynthetics.
Used along with any type of block or wall facade and gravel fill to construct retaining walls.
1 8 m tall as outlined in the table above.
Long 0 9 m and 1 2 m by 15 m and is best used for residential retaining walls under 6 ft.
Quick and easy installation.
The geogrid acts as a tie back to resist the outward movement of the retained soil.
Rolls and is 50 ft.
Uniaxial retaining wall geogrid is an engineered product use to provide necessary structural stability and reinforcement of residential and commercial.
