Tensar Geogrids
The Power of Tensar® Geogrids
Tensar geogrids simplify construction, reduce costs, and enhance performance. They can be used to stabilize soft soils, providing stability where traditional methods may struggle. Tensar solutions are also effective when placed over stiff soils, including those that have been chemically treated. The impact is powerful, offering aggregate and/or asphalt reduction, along with improved load-bearing capacity, extended service life, and easier installation compared to conventional approaches.
What are Geogrids?
Geogrids work by interlocking with soil or aggregate materials, enhancing their ability to resist lateral forces and distribute loads. This interlocking action helps to prevent soil movement, reduce settlement, and improve overall stability.
Solve your soft soil problem
Almost every contractor has seen it before: you head to work, but you can’t get onto the site because of poor site conditions or wet weather. Equipment and manpower costs you time and money while you wait for the site to dry, or you over-excavate and import expensive fill.
There’s a better solution for subgrade soil stabilization: Tensar geogrids. Because they are easier to install, reduce aggregate fill, and require no skilled labor or specialized equipment, Tensar geogrids can help you quickly get the job done on time and on budget. Plus, a more stable, stiffer pavement foundation creates a more resilient, longer-lasting surface.
For stabilizing aggregate, especially over weak subgrades, stiffer is better. Tensar’s technology and expertise in ground stabilization not only improve site performance but are proven to reduce costs and environmental impact.
With Tensar geogrids, you need less aggregate to stabilize your job site – and less aggregate means less cost. They’re fast and easy to install, which means less time lost from your project schedule. And Tensar geogrids are backed by thousands of successfully installed projects with millions of SY installed over the past 5 decades, so you can trust the results.
