WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGES?
Benefits of the Geocell Confinement System:
1). Reduce Fill Required – With the use of Geocell, fill quantity can be reduced by up to 70% while maintaining or improving bearing capacity. This saves time, transport, and material costs.
2). Eliminate Rutting – Prevent the lateral movement of infill. Lower quality fill materials can often be used since they are contained within the cells.
3). Support Heavy Loads – Improve the bearing capacity of subgrade soils and extend the life-cycle of the road.
4). Quick & Simple Installation - Easily installed without specialized equipment or crews.
5). Utilize Local Fill – Most local soils can be used as fill minimizing transportation costs and installation time.
6). Perforated Cells – Allow water to drain freely through permeable aggregates.
Plastic HDPE Geo Cell Used In Road Construction Ground Grid Geocell
Ground Grid Geocell Description:
Geocells are engineered for protection and stabilization applications. They are often used to help improve the performance of standard construction materials and erosion-control treatments. Geocell products are three-dimensional, expandable panels made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polyester or another polymer material. When expanded during installation, the interconnected strips form the walls of a flexible, three-dimensional cellular structure into which specified infill materials are placed and compacted. This creates a free-draining system that holds infill materials in place and prevents mass movements by providing confinement through tensile reinforcement. Cellular confinement systems improve the structural and functional behavior of soils and aggregate infill materials.
