Product Introduction
Biaxial plastic geogrids are polymer-based grid structures designed with bidirectional (longitudinal and transverse) ribs to enhance soil stabilization and load distribution in civil engineering projects. Their unique geometry and material properties make them critical in reinforcing soil, reducing deformation, and improving infrastructure durability.

Product Performance
1). High Tensile Strength and Balanced Load Distribution
Biaxial geogrids exhibit uniform tensile strength in both longitudinal and transverse directions due to their grid structure. This balanced strength allows them to distribute loads evenly across a wide area, preventing localized stress concentrations. For instance, studies on geogrids with reinforced nodes showed improved **ultimate pull-out resistance** compared to traditional designs, particularly under high normal stress conditions . The ribs interlock with soil particles, enhancing load transfer efficiency.
2). Superior Soil Stabilization
The interaction between geogrids and soil is critical. Laboratory pull-out tests demonstrated that the **interface shear strength** depends on soil grain size, moisture content, and transverse rib geometry. Larger soil particles and optimized rib spacing increase bearing resistance, while excessive moisture reduces friction but can be mitigated by design adjustments . This makes geogrids adaptable to diverse soil conditions.
3). Chemical and Environmental Resistance
Made from polymers like polypropylene or polyethylene, biaxial geogrids resist degradation from soil chemicals, moisture, and UV exposure. Research on materials like PEF (polyethylene furandicarboxylate) highlights their ability to maintain structural integrity under biaxial stretching, even developing strain-induced crystallization for enhanced rigidity and thermal stability .
4). Ease of Installation
Their lightweight and flexible design simplifies handling and reduces labor costs. For example, geogrids with **three-dimensional reinforcement nodes** improve installation efficiency while maintaining structural performance .
5). Durability Under Dynamic Loads
Experiments on materials subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and dynamic stress (e.g., seismic conditions) show that geogrid-reinforced systems maintain mechanical stability. This is vital for applications like roadbeds in cold climates or earthquake-prone areas.
Application Scenarios
1). Road and Railway Construction
Used to reinforce subgrades, reduce rutting, and extend pavement lifespan by distributing traffic loads. They are particularly effective in soft soil areas where differential settlement is a concern.
2). Slope and Embankment Stabilization
Prevents soil erosion and landslides by integrating with vegetation or retaining structures. The anisotropic shear strength of geogrid-soil interfaces ensures adaptability to complex stress directions .
3). Retaining Walls
Enhances the structural integrity of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls by providing lateral support and reducing earth pressure.
4). Foundation Engineering
Improves bearing capacity for structures built on weak soils, such as industrial platforms or building foundations.
5). Environmental and Hydraulic Projects
Applied in landfill liners, coastal protection, and riverbank reinforcement to withstand hydraulic forces and chemical exposure.
