A layer of E’GRID 20/20 geogrid was installed above this, beneath the granular fill to provide reinforcement and stabilisation. When the fill is compacted, the stone particles partially penetrate the apertures within the E’GRID but are then prevented from moving sideways by its rigid and integral structure. It is these processes of ‘lateral restraint’ and ‘mechanical interlock’ provided by the geogrid that reinforces and stabilises the ground and enables reductions of up to 50% in the depth of fill to be achieved. In addition Wrekin’s 1mm HDPE geomembrane was used to form a drainage ‘baffle’ across the car park.

Wrekin’s MultiTrack 1000 non woven geotextile is manufactured from virgin polypropylene in state-of-the-art facilities. It has been designed to offer optimum performance per unit weight giving the required mechanical robustness and excellent hydraulic properties required for separation and filtration applications. It’s high elongation at break also offers greater resistance to installation damage than woven geotextiles.

Wrekin’s E’GRID is a premium quality ‘punched and drawn’ polypropylene biaxial grid that has been specifically developed to provide engineers with a cost effective solution. It is proven to give comparable reinforced soil performance to other market leading products where the superior optimised performance and associated longevity is required
