    RAILWAY TRACK BALLAST SUPPORT  
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
