Soil Reinforcement & Stabilization
Soil Reinforcement & Stabilization
Soil conditions and properties are important considerations in the design of infrastructure construction projects. Poor soil properties can either make construction impossible or lead to performance failures that can be costly. Regardless of the project type proper soil reinforcement and/or stabilization are typically needed to ensure sound structural stability and longevity of the infrastructure being built. Geogrids and geocells are the most effective solutions to stabilize and reinforce soils for various base applications, and soil walls and slopes. They work to do two critical things: 1) improve the mechanical properties of soil by reducing stress-strain behavior; and 2) improve the mechanical behavior of granular material by minimizing movement and allowing for effective load distribution.

Titan offers geocell and a range of biaxial & uniaxial geogrid products that help solve soil reinforcement and stabilization challenges for specific sites and applications. These include:
Soft Soil Base Reinforcement
Swamp Grid™ (Biaxial Composite Geogrid)
Designed as an all-in-one solution, SWAMP GRID™ offers soil reinforcement with added soil filtration, soil separation, and sub-base drainage performance.
Base Reinforcement
Titan Earth Grid™ (Biaxial Geogrid)
Titan Earth Grid™ geogrid works to increase the bearing capacity and stabilization of low load bearing soils.
Embankment Stabilization
Pyramid Grid™ (Uniaxial Geogrid)
Pyramid Grid™ uniaxial geogrids are specifically designed for soil reinforcement in applications such as retaining walls and steep slopes where soil strength develops uni-axially.
Railway Ballast / Sub-ballast Reinforcement
Titan Rail Grid™ (Biaxial Geogrid)
Designed to stabilize sub-ballast and ballast layers for railway track structure for better performance and less maintenance of the track.
Mine Tunnel Roof & Ribs
Mine-Shield Grid™ (Biaxial Geogrid)
An advanced line of high strength polymer biaxial geogrid developed as a load bearing alternative to steel/metal mesh for soft and hard rock underground mining applications.
Slope & Vertical Structure Reinforcement
StrataGrid™
An unixial geogrid used for soil reinforcement in embankment construction over soft soils.
Cellular Confinement
BaseLok™ Geocell
A three-dimensional cellular structure that confines soil, the issue of low compaction and bearing capacity is eliminated.
