Tensar biaxial geogrids provide an extremely cost-effective solution for the reinforcement of ballast over a soft subgrade, bringing significant benefits to the railway engineer. There are two major application areas for the use of Tensar biaxial geogrids - within and beneath railway track ballast:
Direct ballast reinforcement to reduce the rate of track settlement and hence reduce maintenance cycles.
Reinforcement of a granular sub-base layer beneath the railway ballast to increase the bearing capacity of the track foundation.
Other benefits of this solution are:
Embankment Surface
Stabilization
Over Burden Dumps
Wrap around facia Slopes
Inland Waterways
Highway, Railway Embankment & Cuttings
