Geocell, also known as honeycomb cell, is a three-dimensional network structure material. Commonly used for strengthening highway embankments. It can also be used for slope protection, soil consolidation, and greening. Subsequently, Geocell has been widely recognized in many countries around the world and has become an excellent engineering material.
The main functions of Geocell are as follows:
1. Strengthening soil: Geocell geocells can effectively enhance the strength and stability of soil, reduce phenomena such as mountain landslides, earthquake induced landslides, road settlement, river erosion, and seawall erosion. Moreover, Geocell’s grid structure design can resist and disperse loads under stress, forming a more stable foundation.
2. Stable slope: The use of Geocell geotextile cells to enhance the slope can form a stable support structure, avoid slope collapse, sideslip, collapse, and other phenomena, and ensure the safety of the road and surrounding environment.
3. Repair of roadbed and fill soil: Geocell geocell can further change the mechanical properties of fill soil and roadbed, improve the chain modulus of existing soil through filling materials, consolidate filling materials, improve stability, reduce differential settlement, repair main pipe fractures, eliminate matrix differences at the rock soil interface, avoid embankment settlement, and better improve the function of roadbed piles.
4. Improving drainage performance: The construction of Geocell geocells can increase soil porosity, promote water flow and drainage, and thus improve the drainage performance of the road surface.
In summary, Geocell geotechnical cells play an important role in the field of geotechnical engineering, effectively improving the strength and stability of soil, enhancing the support structure of slopes, improving drainage performance, and preventing road surface settlement. They can be widely used in various basic engineering construction projects such as highways, railways, embankments, ports, airports, etc.
