Geocell For Driveway
What is a geocell?
Geocells are cellular closure systems that are used as a simple yet durable material for stabilization and protection. Honeycomb closure systems effectively maintain soil compaction and, by doing so, create a stronger structure for the fill and pavement.
The three-dimensional, honeycomb design of the cells ensures that Geocell is strong and durable. This form creates a structure that improves load distribution. The cell is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and is used to stabilize weak or unstable soils. This ability is due to its ability to reduce the lateral movement of soil particles while vertically loading the contained fill.
In addition to stability, geocells provide a mattress effect and improve the elasticity of the material. The cells have high elastic stiffness and high tensile strength, and because of this they improve the load distribution of the product.
Due to the weight distribution produced by the cells, less rutting occurs in the surface material above. This also reduces the amount of particle filler required. The design of the cells allows the fill to be imported from local sources, which also allows the use of fill from marginal soils.
Finally, the geocells improve the asphalt layer of the product, which leads to a number of benefits. The first is the ability to use less asphalt, due to the longer life of the cells than regular asphalt. Secondly, Geocells improve the module of adjacent layers as vertical forces are transferred to the geogrid through passive resistance. The ability to use Geocells greatly contributes to savings in subgrade and subgrade, directly impacting user maintenance and costs.
Summing up
More often than not, the initial cost of adding a Geocell Driveway is worth it in the long run. Geocells offer unparalleled strength and longevity in climates where severe weather is a frequent or seasonal occurrence.
