Soft Ground Reinforcement with APT PET Geogrid 200/200 kN/m

The Ho Chi Minh City – Trung Luong – My Thuan Expressway is one of Vietnam’s most important transportation infrastructure projects, connecting Ho Chi Minh City with the Mekong Delta. The expressway plays a significant role in regional economic development, improving logistics efficiency, and reducing transportation time between the southern economic hub and the Mekong Delta provinces.

As the alignment passes through extensive areas of soft alluvial soil, ground improvement was a critical part of the construction process. Reinforcing weak subgrades before embankment construction was essential to ensure long-term stability, minimize settlement, and improve the overall performance of the highway.

AN THAI PET Geogrid Solution

For sections constructed over soft ground, AN THAI PET Geogrid with a biaxial tensile strength of 200/200 kN/m was supplied for embankment reinforcement.

Manufactured from high-tenacity polyester (PET) yarns with a durable polymer coating, AN THAI PET Geogrid provides outstanding long-term mechanical performance for demanding geotechnical applications.

The geogrid improves the interaction between the embankment fill and the foundation soil, increasing bearing capacity while effectively controlling deformation and settlement.

Key Features of AN THAI PET Geogrid

-High biaxial tensile strength (200/200 kN/m)
-Low tensile elongation
-Excellent long-term creep resistance
-High resistance to chemicals and aggressive soil environments
-Improved load distribution within the reinforced soil structure
-Reduced differential settlement
-Enhanced lateral confinement of embankment fill
-Increased service life of transportation infrastructure
-Engineering Benefits

The use of AN THAI PET Geogrid provides several important engineering advantages:

-Reinforces soft foundation soils before embankment construction.
-Improves the composite stiffness of the soil–geogrid system.
-Distributes traffic and embankment loads more efficiently.
-Reduces total and differential settlement.
-Improves the overall stability of highway embankments.
-Enhances long-term pavement performance and durability.

PET geogrid reinforcement has become a widely adopted solution for expressways, highways, ports, airports, industrial developments, and other infrastructure projects constructed on weak subgrades.
