Tensar TriAx® Geogrid

General
1. The geogrid is manufactured from a punched polypropylene sheet, which is then oriented in three substantially
equilateral directions so that the resulting ribs shall have a high degree of molecular orientation, which continues
at least in part through the mass of the integral node.
2. The properties contributing to the performance of a mechanically stabilized layer include the following:

lndex Properties Longitudinal Diagonal Transverse General

Rib pitch(2l, mm (in) 40 (1.60) 40 (1.60)
Mid-rib depth(2l, mm (in) 1.6 (0.06) 1.4 (0.06)
Mid-rib width (2l, mm (in) 1.0(0.04) 1.2 (0.05)
Rib shape Rectangular
Aperture shape Triangular

Structural lntegrity
Junction efficiency(3l, % 93
Radial stiffness at low strain(4l, kN/ m @ 0.5% strain 300
(lb/ ft @ 0.5% strain) (20,580)

Durability
Resistance to chemical degradation(5l 100%
Resistance to ultra-violet light and weathe ring(6l 70%

Dimensions and Delivery

The TX geogrid shall be delivered to the jobsite in roll form with each roll individually identified and nominally measuring 3.0 meters (9.8 feet) and/ or 4.0 meters
(13.lfeet) in width and 75 meters (246 feet) in length.

Notes
1. . Unless indicated otherwise, values shown are mínimum average roll values determined in accordance with ASTM D4759 -02. Brief descriptions of test
procedures are given in the following notes.
2. Nominal dimensions.
3. Load transfer capability determined in accordance with ASTM D6637-10 and ASTM D7737-11 and expressed as a percentage of ultimate tensile strength.
4. Radial stiffness is determined from tensile stiffness measured in any in-plane axis from testing in accordance with ASTM D66 37-10.
5. Resistance to loss of load capacity or structural integrity when subjected to chemically aggressive environments in accordance with EPA 9090 immersion testing.
6. Resistance to loss of load capacity or structural integrity when subjected to 500 hours of ultraviolet light and aggressive weathering in accordance with ASTM
D4355-05.
