Tensar SS - Sub-Base Reinforcement

Tensar geogrids can solve stabilisation problems because they interlock very efficiently with granular materials. When granular particles are compacted over these geogrids, they partially penetrate and project through the apertures to create a strong and positive interlock.

Benefits of using Tensar Geogrids

Tensar Biaxial geogrids combine major costs savings with considerable performance benefits in granular capping and subbase layers. These benefits help our customers enjoy the following proven benefits:

  • Savings in granular thickness up to 40% with no performance loss
  • Increased design life by a factor of 3
  • Reduction of excavated soil together with conservation of natural aggregates
  • Reduced disturbance and weakening of sensitive sub-grade formations
  • Improved fill compaction
  • Control of differential settlement
  • Spanning voids
