Plastic Mesh Netting Introduction: 

Asphalt Reinforcement Geogrids

Our TE-FGP & TE-FGC biaxial fiberglass geogrids are designed specifically as interlayers for asphalt reinforcement applications. They work to enhance pavement life and performance while helping to reduce maintenance costs. Though each of these fiberglass geogrids have unique characteristics both feature excellent heat resistance, low shrinkage and ultimate elongation to help create a rigid asphalt layer. These geogrids are highly durable, biologically unaffected by soil micro-organisms, inert to all chemicals normally found in soil, and formulated to resist ultraviolet degradation.

More information on each is provided below.

TE-FGP (Biaxial Fiberglass Geogrid)

Polymer coating optimizes the chemical compatibility between the fiberglass reinforcement and the pavement overlay to create strong bonding of the asphalt layers.

Aperture size allows asphalt particles to penetrate through the grid to achieve high interlock and effective bonding of two asphalt lifts.

Self-adhesive backing eliminates the need for tack coat and speeds up installation.

TE-FGC (Biaxial Fiberglass Composite Geogrid)

Bonded to a non-woven polypropylene geotextile.

Provides both moisture proofing and water resistance benefits while creating a strong bond of the asphalt layers over the tack coat surface. This bond ensures that the reinforcing geogrid is in a position to effectively accept and distribute tensile stresses.

What are Geogrids?

Geogrids are geosynthetic material made from polypropylene, polyethylene or polyester. They are used in several civil engineering related applications to provide ground reinforcement.

Qijie geogrids are manufactured from the extrusion, weaving or welding of a polymer to form open aperture products of varying strength, strain and load carrying capability for applications of soil reinforcement. Generally geogrids have a primary strength in one direction only (uniaxial geogrids) although in certain applications the strength may be equal in both directions of the product (biaxial geogrids). Geogrids work by interlocking with the granular or soil material placed over them. The open apertures of the geogrid allows for confinement of the material within, thereby increasing the shear strength of such materials.

Biaxial Geogrids

In the application of base reinforcement in pavements there is the design intention of improving the bearing capacity of an existing sub-grade by including one or more geogrid layers above. The inclusion of a biaxial geogrid generally permits a reduction in granular base course thickness.

In some situations, there may be a requirement to increase the service life of the pavement by the inclusion of a geogrid for a fixed pavement depth.

Qijie offer Secugrid® biaxial geogrids in a range of strengths between 20kN/m to 80kN/m and Combigrid® geogrid/geotextile composite in the same strength grades.

Uniaxial Geogrids

The ACEGrid® high performance geogrid range, are engineered products for applications of short term and long soil reinforcement. The product is woven with strength in both the roll length direction (commonly called the machine direction-mD) and with strength manufactured in the cross roll direction (commonly called the cross direction-CD). Generally the strength of the product will be dominant in one direction of the roll (normally the mD) with sufficient strength in the other direction of the fabric (normally CD) such that the fibres are dimensionally stable and the roll may be easily deployed.
