GEOGRIT ROAD SYSTEM AT MELAKA

What Is Geogrit Road System ?

Geogrit Road System is a road building technique that uses only non-toxic and environmental friendly chemicals to make roads. By not using stones as the basic materials for road building, Geogrit Road System therefore provide a more inexpensive, fast construction time and good quality road to the consumers. Soils are treated with chemicals (BP2G) to make it hard to withstand heavy vehicles to pass through and thus eliminates the need...

The Products

There are two types of material used to construct Geogrit Road. The first is called BP2G. This is the chemical that is used to treat the road base. It is a blend of various chemicals that functioned to harden the soil by the process called soil stabilization. The second product is called BP3G and it functioned to eliminate dust and water puddles on the road surfaces. It is a bitumen/asphalt-based material with the addition of other materials...

The Installation Process

1. A motor grader is use to loose soil surface to the required depth of 150 mm. This can be achieved by using the ripping teeth of the motor grader.2. Then a rotorvator (driven by a tractor) is use to scarify the loosen soil for a better mix.3. Apply the BP2G solution on the already loosen soil. BP2G should be mixed with water at a required proportion in a water tank. The solution is then spray on the soil by gravity.4. Again the rotorvator is use to mix BP2G and the soil to achieve even moisture content. The rotorvator should follow behind the...

BENEFITS

1. AFFORDABLE PRICEAll weather, low maintenance soil roads can be achieved with Geogritfor a small fraction of resurfacing costs.2. REDUCES OVERALL ROAD LABOR AND MAINTENANCE PROBLEMSGeogrit increases road stability and resilience and decreases water penetration of the road base. These factors reduce the problems of washboard effects, rutting and potholes.The result is longer road wear and less road and vehicle maintenance costs. 3. USES IN-SITU BASE MATERIAL, AVOIDING THE NEED TO IMPORT EXPENSIVE AGGREGATE Geogrit technology uses the existing...
