Publication number: 20220379543Abstract: A monolayer multi-axial integral geogrid suitable for stabilizing aggregate includes a plurality of interconnected oriented strands and partially oriented junctions forming a repeating pattern of outer hexagons having an array of openings therein. Oriented ribs extending inwardly from each of said outer hexagons support and surround a smaller inner hexagon having oriented strands thus forming a plurality of trapezoidal openings and a single hexagonal opening. The oriented strands and partially oriented junctions of the outer hexagons form a plurality of linear strong axis strands that extend continuously throughout the entirety of the geogrid and form additional triangular openings. The geogrid thus includes three different repeating geometric shapes. The inner hexagons preferably also can move up and down, out of the plane of the geogrid. The multi-axial integral geogrid thus provides a geometry that can better engage with, confine and stabilize a greater variety and quality of aggregates.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2022Publication date: December 1, 2022Applicant: Tensar International CorporationInventors: Andrew CURSON, Tom-Ross JENKINS, Andrew Edward WALLER, Daniel John GALLAGHER, Daniel Mark BAKER, Manoj Kumar TYAGI, Joseph CAVANAUGH

MULTILAYER INTEGRAL GEOGRIDS HAVING A CELLULAR LAYER STRUCTURE, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME
Publication number: 20220275596Abstract: A multilayer integral geogrid, including one or more cellular layers, has a plurality of oriented multilayer strands interconnected by partially oriented multilayer junctions with an array of openings therein. The multilayer integral geogrid having one or more cellular layers is produced from a coextruded or laminated multilayer polymer starting sheet. The integral geogrid has a multilayer construction, with at least one outer layer thereof having the cellular structure. By virtue of the cellular layer structure, the multilayer integral geogrid provides for increased layer vertical compressibility under load, resulting in enhanced material properties that provide performance benefits to use of the multilayer integral geogrid to stabilize and strengthen soil, aggregates, or other particulate materials.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2021Publication date: September 1, 2022Applicant: Tensar International CorporationInventors: Joseph CAVANAUGH, Manoj Kumar TYAGI, Daniel MARK BAKER, Andrew CURSON, Tom-Ross JENKINS, Andrew Edward WALLER, Daniel John GALLAGHER -
