HDPE geocell slope protection material is the three dimensional structure formed by high strength HDPE or PP copolymer broadband through strong welding or riveting process. The HPDE geocell material can scale freely, shrink and fold up when transported, open when used and fill with earth, stone or concrete, etc. It can form a structure with strong lateral restriction and stiffness in the HDPE geocell slope protection project. HDPE geocell can be used as a cushion layer to deal with weak foundation to increase the bearing capacity of foundation, or it can be laid on slope surface to form geocell slope protection structure, and it can also be used to build support and block structure.
The Main Function of HDPE Geocell Slope Protection Material
- Used to stabilize road and railway subgrade.
- Used for embankment and shallow water channel treatment with load bearing capacity.
- Used retaining wall for preventing landslide and load.
- When soft foundation is encountered, the use of HDPE geocell material can greatly reduce the construction labor intensity, reduce the thickness of roadbed construction speed, good performance, and greatly reduce the project cost.
What are the applications of HDPE Geocell?
HDPE geocell, also known as high-density polyethylene geocell or geogrid, is a versatile material used in various civil engineering and environmental applications. Here are some common applications of HDPE geocell:
1. Erosion Control and Soil Stabilization
- Slope Protection: HDPE geocell helps in stabilizing slopes by reducing soil erosion and enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the soil.
- Bank Erosion Control: It is used to protect riverbanks and coastal areas from erosion caused by water flow and wave action.
2. Geotechnical Engineering
- Reinforcement: HDPE geocell provides reinforcement for embankments, retaining walls, and roadbeds, improving their stability and durability.
- Foundation Support: It can be used to strengthen weak foundations by distributing loads more evenly across the soil.
3. Transportation Infrastructure
- Roads and Highways: HDPE geocell is used to improve the performance of roads and highways by reducing rutting and cracking.
- Railway Tracks: It helps in stabilizing the ground under railway tracks, preventing settlement and ensuring smooth operation.
4. Construction and Building Foundations
- Base Layers: HDPE geocell is used as a base layer in construction projects to provide additional strength and support.
- Load Distribution: It helps in distributing loads from structures like buildings and bridges, minimizing the risk of settlement.
5. Environmental Applications
- Landfill Liner Systems: HDPE geocell is used in landfill liners to prevent leachate migration and enhance the stability of the landfill.
- Ecological Restoration: It is employed in ecological restoration projects to stabilize soil and promote vegetation growth.
6. Agriculture and Horticulture
- Soil Aeration: HDPE geocell improves soil aeration and drainage, which benefits plant root development.
- Green Roofs: It is used in green roof systems to support lightweight soil and vegetation layers.
7. Sports and Recreation Areas
- Athletic Fields: HDPE geocell is used beneath playing fields to enhance surface stability and reduce maintenance costs.
- Golf Courses: It helps in managing water flow and improving the overall quality of the tu
Case Study Of HDPE Geocell Slope Protection Project
The UK customer contacted us through BPM website – www.bpmgeosynthetics.com. The Client listed the condition of the company’s business type and the geocell would be used for the slope of the road side to protect in detail. In the technical properties, the geotechnical material required very high on strength and also the bearing capacity. Based on client local environment, soil condition, slope angles, BPM technical staff gave proper recommendation based on clients project design which together use HDPE geocell slope protection product and geotextile.
To make negotiation faster and product quality be specified, BPM prepared and send the geocell slope protection material and geotextile samples to the customer within 1 weeks. After receiving the sample and tested in local SGS testing lab, client chose BPM HDPE Geocell and geotextile for this project.
