Uniaxial Geogrid for Soil Reinforcement | High Strength Solutions

Uniaxial geogrid is a viable option for canal bank protection. Canals have the potential to erode their banks because of the water flow which leads to widening of the canal itself, loss of soil, and in the worst case scenario, collapse. To prevent soil erosion, Uniaxial geogrids are applied on the banks of canals. They reinforce the canal soils by interlocking with the soil particles along their high strength axis. This increases the soil shear strength as well as resistance against eroding forces. This helps the canals maintain their shape, stability, as well as control the soil from being washed away. The geogrid also aids in the distribution of static pressure from the water, even further reducing the erosive forces on the walls of the geogrid. This reinforces the overall strength of the canal bank and ensures proper functioning of the canal system.
