Tensar International Corporation, the worldwide leader in geosynthetic reinforcement, improves property values by providing technology-driven site solutions for common development problems such as grade changes requiring retaining walls or slopes, and improving soil conditions for better performing roadways, parking lots, railways and building structures. We also provide creative products and services to the mining, erosion prevention and solid waste industries. These solutions, based on patented Tensar^® Geogrids, offer cost-effective alternatives to traditional construction methods.

Tensar^® Uniaxial (UX) Geogrids
Tensar UX Geogrids are manufactured using select grades of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) resins that resist elongation (creep) when subjected to high loads for long periods of time. These geogrids carry large tensile loads applied in one direction (along the roll), and their open aperture structure interlocks with natural fill materials.

Tensar^® Biaxial (BX) Geogrids
Tensar BX Geogrids are created using select grades of polypropylene or copolymers that resist high, short-term dynamic loads or moderate loads over longer time periods. These products carry loads applied in any direction in the plane of the geogrid.

Tensar International, a leading developer and manufacturer of technology-driven site solutions, has released a white paper, "Plotting the Road Map for Performance Specifications." It is authored by Cliff Hall and David Cashman. Slowly but surely, they write, specification by performance is becoming a more accepted method for construction by highways agencies both in the UK and internationally. The results promise much needed innovation and significant economic and environmental benefits. But how should contractors and suppliers be adapting to changing client demands?

GEOTALK is published by Tensar International Corporation and features articles and case studies of special interest to engineers, architects, and contractors.

Installation Guide Available...Tensar International Corporation now offers a downloadable installation guide for its coastal and waterways erosion protection system, Triton.
