Steel-plastic geogrid is a high-performance reinforcement material made from high-strength steel wire or other fibers, which are specially treated and combined with polyethylene (PE) and various additives. It is extruded into a composite tensile strip with a rough surface texture, creating a strong and durable geotechnical reinforcement system. The individual strips are arranged at specific intervals, either longitudinally or transversely, and then fused together using advanced welding techniques to form a robust geogrid structure.
Key Features:
1. Exceptional tensile strength with minimal deformation, ensuring long-term performance under heavy loads.
2. Low creep characteristics, maintaining structural integrity over time even in challenging conditions.
3. Outstanding corrosion resistance and durability, thanks to the protective plastic coating and added UV stabilizers. This makes it highly resistant to environmental factors such as acid, alkali, and salt, allowing it to last over 100 years in permanent engineering applications.
4. Easy and efficient installation, reducing construction time and costs by up to 50%. Its smooth laying and seamless jointing process eliminate overlaps and complications, making it ideal for large-scale projects.
Applications:
Steel-plastic geogrid is widely used in soft soil stabilization, retaining walls, road and railway pavements, bridge approaches, wharfs, dams, waste storage areas, and more. It is especially effective in reinforcing embankments and foundations where long-term stability and strength are critical.
Engineering Benefits:
1. High tensile strength and low creep make it suitable for use in high-grade highways and steep retaining walls, adapting well to different soil conditions.
2. Enhances the interlocking effect between soil and reinforcement, significantly increasing bearing capacity and controlling lateral soil movement, thereby improving overall foundation stability.
3. Compared to traditional grids, it offers superior strength, load-bearing ability, corrosion resistance, and a longer service life, along with a uniform hole pattern that simplifies construction.
4. Ideal for deep-sea and coastal projects, where other materials may degrade due to seawater exposure. It solves common issues like poor corrosion resistance and short lifespan caused by traditional materials.
5. Reduces damage during construction, preventing crushing or breakage of the grid due to machinery pressure, ensuring a smoother and safer building process.
