What Is a Geogrid and How Does It Reinforce Soil? A Complete Informational Guide
Among the family of geosynthetic materials used in civil and geotechnical engineering, geogrids occupy a unique and important position. Unlike geotextiles — which are solid fabrics — geogrids are open-mesh structures with large apertures through which soil and aggregate particles can penetrate and interlock. This interlock mechanism is the source of their remarkable ability to reinforce soils and granular materials, improving bearing capacity, reducing rutting ...
