Infrastructure and Superstructure Projects
Infrastructure and superstructure projects include highways, railways, bridges, tunnels, airports, and other large-scale infrastructure developments. These projects are meticulously designed and constructed to ensure safety, durability, and long-term usability. Geosynthetic materials are effectively used in these projects to provide soil stabilization, impermeability, drainage, and structural durability.
Geosynthetic Products Used and Their Functions:
- Geomembrane: Provides liquid and gas impermeability, preventing waste from leaking into the environment.
- Geotextile: Ensures filtration and drainage, offers mechanical protection, and regulates ground movements.
- Geosynthetic Clay Liner (GCL): Reinforced with bentonite clay, this material provides additional sealing.
- Geocell: Increases load-bearing capacity and stabilizes the ground.
- Geogrid: Strengthens soil and fill materials.
- Geonet: Facilitates drainage and water discharge.
- Geocomposite: Combines different geosynthetics to integrate impermeability and drainage features.
- Gas Drainage Strip: Prevents gas accumulation and reduces structural pressure.
- Water-Blocking Sealing Tapes: Prevents water leakage at structural joints, ensuring the continuity of insulation.
The integrated use of these products ensures that infrastructure projects are safe, environmentally friendly, and long-lasting. The selection of products and combinations depends on the project's technical requirements and site conditions.
