Guide for Estimating Subgrade Soil Strengths (Fine-Grained Soils)
*Use 8” cable ties (zip ties) to secure overlap.
**The required thickness of aggregate base (rock/gravel) placed on top of the geogrid will vary
depending on the equipment used, quality of rock/gravel and native soils. The recommended
aggregate base thicknesses are based on 20kip axle loads with 100 psi tire pressures. For dierent
conditions please contact a Tensar representative or consult with a professional engineer.
Geogrid use is at installer/owner’s own risk.
