Tensar TriAx TX-G
Revolutionary Tensar technology for extremely wet conditions
While we re-engineered the geogrid with TriAx to outperform even Tensar biaxial alternatives, there was still a need for a geocomposites that could combine the high performance structural stabilising effect of the geogrid with the separation function of a geotextile. This is for use in application areas with high water levels or mobile subgrade soils and when using fill that is not well graded. The geocomposites is installed geogrid side up so it interacts with the granular fill.
Tensar TriAx® TX-G geogrid incorporates the advanced technology of TriAx (click here to see an animated demonstration), and combines it with a non-woven geotextile laminated to the geogrid structure. This provides extra filtration and separation, preventing fine subgrade particles moving up into an open-graded aggregate layer, which can adversely affect performance.
TriAx TX-G naturally comes with Tensar’s superior technical support, with our team of experienced Engineers using the unique TensarPave software to offer everything from a basic application suggestion up to a full design and supply service.
With TX and TX-G, benefits include:
- Outstanding performance on saturated soils
- Additional separation when using open-grade aggregates
- Reduce aggregate layer thickness by up to 50% when compared with an unstabilised aggregate layer
- Reduce the excavation needed
- Control differential settlement
- Increase bearing capacity
- Full design service
- Reduces the difficulty and safety risk for operatives placing a separator fabric over very weak ground
