HDPE Biaxial Geogrid

We, Shandong Zhonghuan Engineering Materials Co., Ltd, is a HDPE biaxial geogrid and other geosynthetics supplier in China. The soil body strength and deformation characteristics can be enhanced and improved after the reinforcement materials are mixed or laid. Geogrid is a quite important part of the reinforcement material family. HDPE biaxial geogrid can be defined as plastic stretching geogrid, which can be classified from woven PET geogrid, woven glass fiber geogrid, and others.

Specification

HDPE Biaxial Geogrid Introduction 

HDPE biaxial geogrid is made of polymer material of high density polyethylene. It is extruded into sheet and then punched into regular mesh pattern, then stretched into a grid in longitudinal and transverse directions.

The high polymer of plastic geogrid is directionally arranged in the heating and stretching process of manufacturing, which strengthen the binding force between molecular chains so it increases the grid strength.

The principal function of HDPE biaxial geogrid is for reinforcement.

The key feature of geogrid is that the openings between the adjacent sets of longitudinal and transverse ribs, called “apertures,” are large enough to allow for soil strike-through from one side of the geogrid to the other. The reason for this is that in anchorage situations the soil strike-through within the apertures bears against the transverse ribs, which transmits the load to the longitudinal ribs via the junctions. The junctions are, of course, where the longitudinal and transverse ribs meet and are connected.
