Geonets are geosynthetic products made from interconnected polymeric strands that create a three-dimensional matrix. This structure allows for the efficient drainage of water while providing reinforcement to the soil. Typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene, geonets are designed to serve multiple functions in various engineering applications, especially in road construction.
Key Features of Geonets
High Drainage Capacity: The open structure of geonets enables water to flow freely, facilitating efficient drainage in roadways, preventing water accumulation, and reducing the risk of erosion.
Reinforcement Properties: Geonets add strength to the soil, helping to improve the load-bearing capacity of roadways and reducing deformation under traffic loads.
Durability: Geonets are resistant to environmental factors such as UV radiation, chemicals, and temperature variations, ensuring a long lifespan even in harsh conditions.
Versatile Applications: They can be used in various applications, including subgrade reinforcement, embankments, and landfill caps.
