Reducing construction costs and long-term maintenance needs Ground Stabilisation Structural performance that can be applied to diverse and difficult ground conditions There are now unprecedented demands to design economic and environmentally sensitive roads, container ports, car parks, airfields and hardstandings sited over weak or variable ground. Tensar can provide high performance geogrid-based systems which meet these demands. The structural contribution made by Tensar® TriAx® geogrids is to stabilise the unbound layers of roads and trafficked areas to create a mechanically stabilised...
