Many roads in Indonesia are constructed to support plantation operations and mining activities. However, weak subgrade conditions and low bearing capacity present significant challenges during construction. Reinforcing the road foundation from the early stage is therefore essential to improve long-term performance, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure the durability of the infrastructure.
To address these challenges, a customer in Indonesia selected An Thai’s PET Woven Geotextile DML10 for a large-scale road construction project. A total of 95,400 m² of geotextile was supplied to reinforce the road foundation and improve stability throughout the construction process.
Project Challenges
The road project was constructed in stages over soft ground in plantation and mining areas, where the subgrade conditions required additional reinforcement to ensure structural stability.
Key site challenges included:
-Weak soil conditions.
-Low bearing capacity of the subgrade.
-High risk of settlement and instability during embankment construction.
-Increased maintenance costs and reduced service life if the foundation was not properly reinforced.
Solution: PET Woven Geotextile DML10
An Thai’s PET Woven Geotextile DML10 was installed as a reinforcement layer within the embankment to improve load distribution and enhance the overall stability of the road foundation.
Subgrade Reinforcement
With its high tensile strength and low elongation of approximately 11%, PET Woven Geotextile DML10 effectively distributes loads across the foundation, improving bearing capacity and reducing deformation.
Construction Stabilization
The reinforcement layer minimizes settlement during staged embankment construction, providing greater stability throughout the installation process and enabling safer, more efficient construction.
Lower Maintenance Costs
By improving the stability of the road foundation from the beginning, the geotextile helps reduce differential settlement and pavement damage, resulting in lower maintenance and repair costs throughout the service life of the road.
