Geosynthetics for
pavements
Due to their characteristics, Geomatrix High Tenacity Polyester (PET) geosynthetics They allow the formulation of strategic solutions that improve the performance, construction process and cost-benefit ratio for the construction of pavements. In particular, its use is recommended for the following applications:
Usage
Recommended products
Compressible soft subgrade reinforcement
Compressible soft subgrade reinforcement
Conficell LS
Fortex
FORTSHIELD
Longitudinal Subdrainage
This is the collection and transport of groundwater to control the water table. This effect improves the bearing capacity of the land and prevents damage to structures such as pavements or foundations.
Fortex
Fibertex
Permadrain
Drainpipe
Reinforcement of asphalt layers
The reinforcement of asphalt layers consists of increasing the resistance to tension in its lower plane through the use of Geogrid. This effect is used to increase shear resistance at the interface, reducing the reflection of cracks and increasing the durability of the new asphalt layer due to its longer fatigue life.
Fiberglass Grid
Fortgrid Asphalt
Granular base reinforcement
In granular-based reinforcement, the tensile modulus of the geogrid is used to increase the elastic recovery capacity of the pavement structure. This benefit is used to increase the useful life of the pavement or to allow a reduction in the thickness of the granular base.
