Learn about the differences and advantages of a gabion module with Geoestera Geogrid, compared to conventional triple twist mesh
GAVION MODULES IN GEOSTERNAL GEOMETRIC
The GEOSTERNAL GEOMETRIC In addition to being implemented for the confinement of rocks in the formation of rockfill mattresses, it has another type of application: GAVION MODULES IN GEOSTERNAL GEOMETRIC, which are not affected by corrosion, are highly resistant to abrasion and tension and offer larger dimensions than conventional ones, guaranteeing greater performance on site, at the time of execution.

As an example, in the following Figure modules d are presentede 4.0m long, 2.0m wide and 1.0m high.



ANDIt is important to specify that the G.E.GEOESTRAL OMALLA It fulfills the function of confining a certain volume of rockfill in the proportions established in the regulations.years issued for construction, allowYoindo, thanks to its opening size, host material of 1.5 inch (37.5 mm) onwards for the reference case GEOESTERA 50 and 3 inch (75mm) for references GEOESTERA 80 and 300.
COMPARISON OF GEOMAL GAVION MODULES GEOESTERA AND CONVENTIONAL TRIPLE TORSION MESH
The GEOSTERNAL GEOMETRIC, is biaxial in nature with similar resistances of 50 kN/m for the GEOESTERA 50, 80 kN/m for the GEOESTERA 80 up to a maximum value of 300 kN/m for GEOESTERA 300, as line products, and can be offered in higher resistances upon request.

TO Next, Table 1 presents a comparison that allows establishing the balance of the specified properties against those offered.
Table 1. Comparative Triple Twist Mesh Vs Hydrogrid Geoestera 50
| TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF TRIPLE TORSION MESH | TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF GEOSTERA HYDROMAGE 50 | ||
| Triple torsion hexagonal mesh woven from galvanized wire based on the NTC2403 standard | Mesh made with Geomatrix's exclusive G5 multifilament, protected with a copolymer that makes it highly resistant to the abrasive load imposed by the permanent action of water currents. | ||
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | ||
| Mesh tensile strength | 44.8 kN/m | Tensile strength | 55.0 kN/m |
| Opening size | 10×8cm | Opening size | 3.1×2.6cm |
| Structure | Steel | Structure | High tenacity polyester |
As can be seen, the GEOGEOSTER MESH 50 It surpasses metal mesh in its mechanical capabilities and does not degrade due to corrosion., being the one with the lowest resistance in its range. His coating with copolymer of the GEOESTERA makes it durable in harsh environmentswet or naturally aggressive and their malla woven by weft insertion with intersectingions reinforced with protective fibers high tenacity polyester They generate greater coverage and structural stability.
