TerraStop HS Woven PET 400kN 5x100m

Description

High strength polyester fabrics ranging in strength from 100-1200kN/m suitable for solving complex engineering problems. They are used to reinforce soils where extremely high tensile strength with low elongation is required. TerraStop® PET High Strength Woven – 400/50 Geotextiles are manufactured from high tenacity polyester (PET) yarns, knitted to form a structured matting. TerraStop® PET High Strength Woven – 400/50 Geotextiles are manufactured under ISO 9001. The design factors stated are based on manufacturers independent research and testing. Product strength and stiffness are affected both by temperature and by rate or duration of loading. For these reason it’s important that standard methods of tensile testing are used, so that temperature and strain rate are defined.

TerraStop® PET High Strength Woven Geotextiles, quality control (QC) tensile testing is carried out using the method given in International Standard BS EN ISO10319:1996. This is a wide width method with specimen width of 200mm. Strain rate is 20% per minute and test temperature is 20°C.

Applications

TerraStop HS Woven is designed for Civil Engineering applications such as:

• Reinforcement of granular soils
• Embankment reinforcement
• Retaining structures
• Basal reinforcement
• Piling platforms
• Subgrade improvement
