High-strength geogrid reinforcement for weak soils, load transfer and settlement-sensitive infrastructure
ArmaLynk is Geoquest’s high-strength geogrid solution designed to improve ground performance in challenging geotechnical conditions.
Engineered with high-tenacity PET or PVA reinforcing yarns encapsulated in a durable protective sheath, ArmaLynk provides reliable reinforcement for embankments, load transfer platforms, ground stabilization and void bridging applications.
Designed for long-term performance, ArmaLynk helps owners, engineers and contractors build safely on weak soils while improving settlement control, reducing construction constraints and optimizing material consumption.
Key characteristics:
- Up to 1 800 kN/m
- PET or PVA
- Uniaxial or biaxial
- Customized roll dimensions
Increasingly complex ground conditions require reliable and efficient reinforcement solutions
Infrastructure, industrial and environmental projects are frequently developed on weak, soft or subsiding soils where conventional construction methods can become costly, time-consuming and environmentally demanding. Common project challenges:
- Weak and very soft ground conditions
- Differential settlements
- Subsidence risks
- Load transfer over rigid inclusions
- Land reclamation and landfill expansion projects
- Accelerated construction schedules
- Pressure to reduce environmental impact
- Rising costs of traditional ground improvement techniques
Engineered to stabilize weak soils and control settlement
Manufactured from high-tenacity PET or PVA yarns encased within a durable protective sheath, ArmaLynk combines high tensile capacity with long-term durability in demanding geotechnical environments.
Available in uniaxial and biaxial configurations, ArmaLynk can be adapted to specific reinforcement, load transfer and ground stabilization requirements.
The resulting structure provides:
- High tensile strength
- Low deformation behaviour
- Efficient load distribution
- Control of differential settlement
- Long-term resistance to environmental exposure
ArmaLynk can be customized in strength grades, roll dimensions and installation layouts to suit project-specific requirements.
