Geogrid is a kind of geosynthetic material consisting of connected parallel sets of tensile ribs with apertures of sufficient size to allow strike-through of surrounding soil, stone, or other geotechnical material . they are commonly used to reinforce retaining walls, as well as subbases or subsoils below roads or structures.
Geopool rigid geogrids are formed using a polymer sheet that is punched and drawn in either one or multi directions for improvement of engineering properties. It can be divided into two broad categories based upon their formation and principle application, uniaxial and biaxial. Extruded geogrids that are pre-tensioned in one direction are called uniaxial geogrids and are typically used in geotechnical engineering projects concerning reinforced earth and retaining walls. Extruded geogrids that are pre-tensioned in two directions are referred to as biaxial geogrids and are typically used in pavement applications where the direction of principle stress is uncertain.
Geopool flexible geogrids are manufactured by weaving polymer fibers, typically PET , PVA or fiberglass fibers, that can be coated for increased abrasion resistance. It can also be divided into two broad categories based upon their formation and principle application, uniaxial and biaxial.
