Geolon HP-Series Woven Polypropylene Geotextiles for Stabilization and Soil Reinforcement
DX2 offers a wide range of woven geotextiles for stabilization and soil reinforcement applications. These geotextiles are cost-effective reinforcement elements which improve and enhance modern construction techniques in a variety of civil engineering applications.
Product Description
HP-Series products are woven geotextiles comprised of high tenacity polypropylene yarns. HP-Series Woven Polypropylene Geotextiles yield ultimate tensile strengths up to 13,200 lbs/ft (machine direction) per ASTM D 4595.
The HP-Series products combine the properties of high tensile strength and modulus and high confinement with their ability to act as a filter and separator.
Features and Benefits
- Strength. Higher tensile strength at 2% and 5% than any comparable stabilization product;
- Flow. Uniform openings provide the same filtration and flow characteristics as that of a fine to coarse sand layer;
- Soil Interaction. Excellent soil confinement resulting in greater load distribution;
- Seams. Panels can be sewn together in the factory or field, providing cross-roll direction strength to facilitate installation and providing reinforcement strength;
- Cost. Woven reinforcement geotextiles provide low cost tensile strength for reinforced soil structures.
Applications
Because of their flexibility and versatility, woven geotextiles are used in a variety of applications, including embankments on soft foundations, retaining walls, steepened slopes, and soil stabilization for road and rail construction. Environmental applications include liner support, voids bridging, and reinforcement over soft, hazardous pond closures. For any application where long term design of earth reinforcement structures are involved, HP-Series Woven Polypropylene Geotextiles are a logical choice.
