GeoSupply forges ahead with InsulFoam GF

2009-07-31T16:05:00.000-07:00

InsulFoam® GF (Geofoam) is a lightweight, geo-synthetic fill material that consists of closed-cell expanded polystyrene (EPS). InsulFoam® GF is used both as an alternative to various fill-materials and as a soil stabilizer, and can also be used in various engineered applications. With a weight that is lighter than that of most fill materials, InsulFoam® GF is cost-effective and does not typically require surcharging, preloading, and staging; often necessary in construction applications. InsulFoam® GF is environmentally friendly and 100% recyclable, containing no HCFCs or formaldehyde. With superior stability, and long-term R-value, InsulFoam® GF resists insects, mold, decomposition and severe weather conditions, including freeze-thaw cycles and moisture.

CASE STUDY - THORNTON ROAD GEOGRID

2009-03-23T21:16:00.000-07:00

Case Study: Thornton Road Reconstruction Project
Owner: Pinal County
Installer: Grey Mountain Construction
Supplier: GeoSupply
Problem: Due to weak / soft subgrade soils, the proposed roadway design required excessive and costly asphalt and aggregate base course materials.
Solution: Construct reinforced pavement structure using Synteen SF12 high-strength geogrid.

Thornton Road, a key commercial access road from I-10 south of Phoenix, was experiencing failure due to deep rutting. With heavy wheel load traffic to a Walmart distribution center, poor subgrade soils (R value 30) and high traffic volume (ESAL requirements approaching 1,000,000) unreinforced pavement design options required costly and excessive asphalt and aggregate materials.
Pinal County was seeking cost-saving and performance enhancing solutions for the reconstruction project. Synteen Technical Fabrics hired Earth Improvement Technologies to prepare an alternate pavement design based on AASHTO 93 design guidelines. With the inclusion of Synteen SF12 geogrid, section reductions in asphalt of 10% and aggregate base reductions of 25% were achieved while providing the same pavement structural number as the original design.

In addition to providing affordability and high tensile strength, the contractor chose the “zero waste” option afforded by Synteen SF12 custom roll dimensions with roll width options ranging from 12’ to 17’.

Over the years, we have been asked time and again, why don't you offer additional selections in biaxial geogrid? Our standard answer has always been " when someone makes a biaxial geogrid that meets our standards, we'll add it to our line."

GeoSupply is proud to offer our customers Synteeen Biaxial and Uniaxial Geogrids. The only Geogrid made in America with 100% American made resins, Synteen and GeoSupply team together to provide the most cost-effective way to stabilize soil.

Synteen's strong, flexible geogrids save time and money on installation. With 6', 12', and 17' widths, no one offers more variety than Synteen and GeoSupply. Got a long run? We've got custom lengths available as well for optimal efficiency.
