Geogrid Wall System
Product Description
The Geogrid Wall System reinforces soil behind retaining walls using high-strength polymer geogrids. Installed in layered formations, it enhances wall stability, resists tension, reduces excavation depth, and improves seismic performance—providing long-term durability for slopes, embankments, and retaining structures.
Geogrid is a geosynthetic material, made of polymers, which is used to reinforce soil behind retaining walls. Installed in horizontal layers between wall courses and extending into the soil behind a wall, geogrid stabilizes the soil and so increases a wall system's mass and stability.
A geogrid is geosynthetic material used to reinforce soils and similar materials. Soils pull apart under tension. Compared to soil, geogrids are strong in tension. This fact allows them to transfer forces to a larger area of soil than would otherwise be the case.
- They reduce the depth of excavation required on unsuitable subgrades.
- Geogrids also provide enhanced safety and greater seismic durability by stabilizing slopes and increasing soil strength.
- By reducing the differential settlement of roadways, geogrids reduce the need for maintenance and extend the life of paved roads.
