Product catalog summary

Typical Applications for Secugrid®

Base Course Stabilisation & Reinforcement: Secugrid® geogrids stabilize and reinforce unbound granular layers, improving bearing capacity and extending maintenance cycles. Applications include temporary roads, traffic areas, railways, and platforms.
Walls and Slopes: These geogrids enhance the strength and durability of earth structures, allowing for inclinations between 45° and 90° and supporting various facing systems.
Embankment on Soft Soil: Secugrid® increases embankment stability, accelerates construction, and mitigates differential settlements.
Load Transfer Platform Over Piles: Used to reinforce platforms over piles, allowing larger pile spacings and eliminating the need for raking piles.
Bridging of Sinkholes and Mining Voids: Installed below embankments to limit surface deformation, providing a safe and economic alternative to rigid foundations.

Advantages of Secugrid® PET/PP Geogrids

High Stress Absorption at Low Strains: Reduces deformation and increases stability of reinforced soil structures.
Efficient Soil-Geogrid Interaction: Absorbs tensile forces and distributes stresses through interlock and friction, minimizing soil deformation.

Technical Specifications

Secugrid® geogrids are made of stretched, monolithic polyester (PET) or polypropylene (PP) with welded junctions, offering high stiffness, low creep tendency, and robustness.
They achieve high tensile strength at low strains, essential for durable engineering work.

Figures and Data

Figures illustrate applications such as base course stabilization, walls and slopes, embankment on soft soil, load transfer platforms, and bridging of sinkholes.
Stress/strain curves demonstrate the performance of Secugrid® compared to other geogrids.

Secugrid® PET/PP uniaxial and biaxial geogrids are laid geogrids made of stretched, monolithic polyester (PET) or polypropylene (PP) flat or profile bars with welded junctions. Secugrid® PET/PP geogrids combine high stiffness and low creep tendency with extreme robustness. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS FOR SECUGRID® Base Course Stabilisation & Reinforcement Secugrid® biaxial PP/PET geogrids stabilise and reinforce unbound granular layers through lateral confinement and mobilisation of tensile resistance. Typical applications are e.g. temporary roads, permanent traffic areas, railways and working platforms....

Bridging of sinkholes and mining voids Figure 5: Bridging of sinkholes and mining voids Secugrid® PET uniaxial geogrids are installed below embankments or fill layers in order to limit the amount of surface deformation caused by subsidence. These voids can be the result of natural processes (e.g. subrosion in karstic areas) or artificial processes (e.g. groundwater extraction or underground mining). Application advantages of Secugrid® • • • Reduced risk of accidents in the event of occurring sinkholes/mining voids Increased safety due to high ductility of the system Economic and ecologic alternative...
