MacGridTM WG
WOVEN POLYESTER GEOGRID

Product Description
MacGridTM is a geogrid for soil reinforcement, made from high molecular weight, high tenacity polyester multifilament
yarns. The yarns are woven on tension in machine direction and finished with a polymeric coating. MacGridTM
geogrids are engineered to be mechanically and chemically durable and resistant to biological degradation.

1. According to FHWA NHI-00-043, when CEG<30, Mn>25,000 and the environment characterized by 5<pH<8, MacGridTM RFD=1.15

2. LTDS (Long-Term Design Strength) of MacGridTM is calculated base on FHWA-NHI-00-043. The long-term design strength value has been compounded by reduction factors, such as
installation damage (RFID), creep (RFCR), durability (RFD).
