Regional Information
Product specifications and applications by region
Regional Overview
GEOMODS TRIAX TGF160 – 6 is a geogrids product with high tensile strength and soil reinforcement capabilities, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications in British Columbia's diverse terrain. It's used in road construction, mining operations, and environmental projects.
Notable Projects
Project 1
Nechako Reservoir Mining Operation
Project 2
Trans-Canada Highway Reinforcement
Climate Considerations
The product performs exceptionally well in BC's variable climate, maintaining integrity from -40°C to +30°C. Its high CBR puncture strength and apparent opening size make it resistant to sudden temperature changes.
Industry Applications
Mining
In BC's mining sector, GEOMODS TRIAX TGF160 – 6 is used for soil reinforcement in tailings ponds and embankments. Its hexagon pitch and carbon black components provide stability in rocky terrain.
Transportation
Used in road construction, particularly in challenging terrains like the Rocky and Coastal Mountains. Its mass per unit area and tensile strength enable it to handle heavy traffic loads and provide long-term stability.
Environmental
The product is used for erosion control and slope stabilization in BC's sensitive environmental areas. Its radial secant stiffness and elongation at peak help the product adapt to shifting soils.
Regional Overview
In Alberta, GEOMODS TRIAX TGF160 – 6 is a go-to product for the province's massive oil & gas and mining industries, as well as for road construction. Its robust radial secant stiffness and tensile strength make it ideal for Alberta's challenging conditions.
Notable Projects
Project 1
Fort McMurray Oil Sands Project
Project 2
Highway 63 Expansion
Climate Considerations
Despite Alberta's extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +30°C, this product maintains its performance. Its high CBR puncture strength and radial secant stiffness ratio allow it to withstand Alberta's freezing winters and hot summers.
Industry Applications
Oil And Gas
GEOMODS TRIAX TGF160 – 6 is extensively used in Alberta's oil sands for access roads, drilling pads and tailings ponds. Its tensile strength and elongation at peak make it resilient to the heavy machinery and volatile conditions of the oil & gas industry.
Mining
The product is used in Alberta's mining operations for haul roads and embankments. Its radial secant stiffness and carbon black content enable it to withstand heavy loads and provide stability in loose soils.
Transportation
For road construction, particularly in areas with permafrost, the product's mass per unit area and tensile strength provide long-term stability and durability, reducing maintenance costs.
