Geogrids
Geosynthetic formed by a regular network of integrally connected elements with openings that allow interlocking with the surrounding soil, rock, earth and other materials to provide them with reinforcement. Composed of continuous elements joined by weaving techniques.
fiber glass grid
Fiberglass Grid are biaxial fiberglass geogrids, designed to reinforce and control the reflection of cracks in asphalt concrete layers. They are impregnated with bitumen to guarantee their compatibility with the asphalt and facilitate their adherence to the asphalt layers. The size of its openings allows a high interaction with the aggregate that makes up the mixture and direct contact between the surfaces involved.
Usage
Asphalt binder reinforcement
___________ Advantages ____________
They control the reflection of cracks in asphalt layers.
They absorb the horizontal tensile stresses that occur in the lower plane of the asphalt layer.
They increase the resistance of asphalt layers to rutting.
