Geosynthetics for Geotechnics
Geomatrix high tenacity polyester geosynthetics are high performance materials specially designed to provide technical and economical advantages in the reinforcement of soils in the formation of earth structures. This solution has been positioned thanks to its application facilities for projects with difficult access, compressible foundation soils, low bearing capacity and susceptible to erosion, among others.
Usage
Recommended products
Reinforcements for foundations and industrial floors
The placement of multiple layers of geosynthetic reinforcement between compacted soil layers significantly increases the bearing capacity. This effect is used to improve the bearing soil in the construction of shallow foundations in areas with soft soils.

Dikes and relaxes
The inclusion of geosynthetic reinforcement layers between layers of compacted soil increases the shear strength of the whole, achieving geotechnically stable structures that are resistant to hydrodynamic conditions.

Retaining walls in reinforced soil
The inclusion of layers of geosynthetic reinforcement between layers of compacted soil increases the shear strength of the whole, achieving the conformation of block-shaped structures that act as gravity retaining walls, typically with slope on the face between vertical and 70 degrees.

slopes
The inclusion of geosynthetic reinforcement layers between layers of compacted soil increases the shear strength of the whole, allowing the construction of slopes with gradients greater than the angle of repose with adequate safety factors according to the project conditions.

Bridge approach embankments
The inclusion of layers of geosynthetic reinforcement, between layers of compacted soil, increases the shear strength of the whole, achieving the conformation of a block of soil that acts as a gravity retaining wall, typically with a slope on the face between vertical and 70 degrees, used as bridge approach embankments.

Embankments on soft or expansive soils
The inclusion of geosynthetic reinforcement layers at the interface between the natural soil and the embankment increases the resistance to bearing capacity failure while stabilizing the supporting soil for the construction of the structure.
