Ground Reinforcement & Subgrade Stabilisation

Geosynthetics provide many benefits over traditional construction techniques where soils, subbases, subgrades, foundations, slopes and trafficked surfaces are constructed. By reducing traditional stone construction layers; the use of geogrids, geocells and geotextiles have become the engineered, environmental and cost-effective solution for such civil engineering projects.

ABG has an extensive range of geosynthetics used in sports construction applications; including surface reinforcement, slope stabilisation and sub-base stabilisation.

ABG’s experienced technical team of Civil Engineers are able to provide a stabilisation design and technical support service for all applications, ensuring that the correct product solution is supplied. This includes over 35 years’ design expertise, utilising carbon saving geogrid reinforcement to reduce the volume of subgrade aggregate required.

Geogrids

Abgrid biaxial geogrid is used in a range of civil engineering applications such as ground reinforcement, subbase aggregate reduction, basal reinforcement, paved and unpaved road foundations, permeable paving construction, retaining walls and steep-sided soil embankments.

Geotextiles

Geotextiles help reduce sub-base thickness and provide a filtration and separation function. Terrex NW geotextiles provide ground stabilisation by separating angular stone layers within a constructed sub-base. By allowing water to percolate through, sub-bases are stabilised as the intermixing of different construction layers and subgrades is prevented.

Gridtex is a high performance, woven geotextile engineered for soil reinforcement applications and for strengthening a wide range of soils by spreading and confining angular aggregate layers so that weakening of the subgrade is prevented.

Typical applications

  • Soil stabilisation
  • Ground stabilisation
  • Basal reinforcement
  • Roadway sub-base reinforcement
  • Steep slope stabilisation
  • Tree root protection
  • Sports facilities
  • Reinforcement for car parks and access roads

Benefits

  • Reduces the depth of the sub-base
  • Strengthens sub-base construction
  • Cost-effective alternative to stone
  • Reduction in stone transportation costs
  • Geotextiles provide filtration & separation functions
  • Geogrids help reduce sub-base thickness
  • Geocells reinforce slopes and embankments
  • Strengthen weak soils in horizontal applications
