The implementation of efficient subdrainage systems is fundamental in infrastructure projects to ensure the durability and functionality of structures such as pavements and retaining walls. In this context, geotextiles and perforated pipe systems are key materials, offering advanced solutions for groundwater management and moisture control...

In road rehabilitation projects, the implementation of FORTGRID ASPHALT geogrids for asphalt layers plays a crucial role. FORTGRID ASPHALT polyester woven geogrids not only reinforce the asphalt concrete layer, but also control and reduce reflective cracking. To ensure their optimum performance, it is essential to follow proper handling practices and...

GEOTEXTIL HYDROTUBE TUBES are geocontainers of tubular shape, with perimeters up to 15 m for capacities up to 12 m3 per linear meter, which are manufactured on request according to the project conditions and are filled by hydraulic means, with a fluid mixture of sand and water or sludge. ...

Seismic risk refers to the probability and consequences of earthquakes occurring in a given geographical area, affecting both infrastructure and human lives. This risk is assessed by considering the historical seismic activity, the geology of the site and the vulnerability of the buildings in the area. Seismic risk...

Over time, the technical literature reports cases of failures in reinforced soil walls, whose analysis leaves important lessons and a collection of recommendations for an adequate design and construction of this type of structures, as in the following example ...

The GEOESTERA HYDROMAP is an alternative used to control the phenomenon of lateral erosion and scour in rivers. The GEOESTERA HYDROMAP is manufactured from high tenacity polyester and impregnated with a copolymer that makes it highly resistant to abrasive processes and increased tractive forces in the bodies...

In modern civil engineering, the construction of retaining walls with reinforced soil has become an efficient and economical solution to stabilize land and build robust infrastructure. In this article, we will explore emblematic cases of completed projects and their positive impact on local infrastructure. Project 1: Oil Platform in Cira Infantas Context...

The characteristics of materials for the construction of reinforced soil structures are crucial to ensure their stability and longevity. Therefore, understanding the behavioral parameters that govern the soil-geosynthetic relationship, the determination of the available strength of geosynthetics and how these are involved in design methodologies is fundamental. ...

The optimum performance of pavement structures constructed with geosynthetics depends on good handling and installation practices. The installation of FORTGRID geogrid for granular reinforcement is a key process in the construction of roads and other structures where the stabilization of granular layers is required, improving the bearing capacity...

HYDROBLOCK: This is a rectangular-shaped GEOCONTENEDOR for on-site installation in hard-to-reach places. It is equipped with an internal structure, has handles for lateral fastening and has a capacity of approximately 1.45 m³. It is made of GEOTEXTIL WOVEN POLYESTER fabric encapsulated with a copolymer specially formulated to preserve it from deterioration due to the action...
