摘要: A thin erosion control mattress system and method of protecting coastal structures and riverbanks against bearing failure and erosion from waves and current is disclosed. The thin mattress system includes geotextile fabric bonded to a tensile element (such as geogrid) and sand/gravel or other fill material confined in the mattress with connection elements (such as rivets) at specific intervals. The geogrid, which can be biaxial or multi-axial, provides tensile strength for picking during installation, improving foundation support and rigidity to the mattress system. The rivets function as spacers and tension elements to prevent bulging of the mattress, and are designed and spaced to temporarily secure the mattress in place for uniform filling and installation. The bonded geotextile-geogrid mat is typically sewn on all sides and filled with sand or gravel at designated fill ports. Further, a method of fabricating the thin mattress system is provided.

摘要: Aspects of a geogrid system and method for improving substrate interactions within a geotechnical environment is disclosed. In one aspect a geotechnical environment is configured with a horizontal multilayer mechanically stabilizing geogrid. In said aspect the geogrid is extruded with a polymeric material and a compressible cellular layer, wherein the geogrid comprises a heightened aspect ratio with a patterned structure of engineered discontinuities and a plurality of strong axes. The combination of elements provides for a system and method of stabilizing soils and aggregate, by resisting lateral movement from the strong axes, and trapping particles in the patterned structure of engineered discontinuities.

摘要: A multilayer integral geogrid, including one or more cellular layers, has a plurality of oriented multilayer strands interconnected by partially oriented multilayer junctions with an array of openings therein. The multilayer integral geogrid having one or more cellular layers is produced from a coextruded or laminated multilayer polymer starting sheet. The integral geogrid has a multilayer construction, with at least one outer layer thereof having the cellular structure. By virtue of the cellular layer structure, the multilayer integral geogrid provides for increased layer vertical compressibility under load, resulting in enhanced material properties that provide performance benefits to use of the multilayer integral geogrid to stabilize and strengthen soil, aggregates, or other particulate materials.

摘要: A monolayer multi-axial integral geogrid suitable for stabilizing aggregate includes a plurality of interconnected oriented strands and partially oriented junctions forming a repeating pattern of outer hexagons having an array of openings therein. Oriented ribs extending inwardly from each of said outer hexagons support and surround a smaller inner hexagon having oriented strands thus forming a plurality of trapezoidal openings and a single hexagonal opening. The oriented strands and partially oriented junctions of the outer hexagons form a plurality of linear strong axis strands that extend continuously throughout the entirety of the geogrid and form additional triangular openings. The geogrid thus includes three different repeating geometric shapes. The inner hexagons preferably also can move up and down, out of the plane of the geogrid. The multi-axial integral geogrid thus provides a geometry that can better engage with, confine and stabilize a greater variety and quality of aggregates.

摘要: Disclosed are various embodiments for a sensor enabled carrier for monitoring and detecting subgrade deformation in working platforms. Working platforms are temporary structures that provide support and stability for heavy machinery (e.g. cranes, piling rigs). They are sometimes referred to as temporary working platforms as they are designed for a specific purpose and a limited lifetime. In one aspect, a sensor enabled carrier is placed within the substructure of a working platform. The sensors are configured to a sensor pod that receives the various inputs, and further transmit the signals to a gateway device. The gateway device may be configured to one or more sensor pods located at the working platform, and serves to transmit the signals to a backend system wherein computing systems interpret the received signals. The backend system may further serve as a distribution point for corrective measures or early warning system in the event subgrade deformation is detected.
