Choosing The Right Cell Depth
It’s Simple
As Soil Conditions Decrease
Cell Depth Increases
How It Works
10 Benefits
• 1. Stabilizer Grid prevents lateral movement which helps to eliminate rutting.
• 2. Increases load bearing capacity.
• 3. Reduces impact on subgrade by creating a stiff rigid mattress and distributes concentrated loads to adjoining cells, thus allowing a reduction in the total base thickness.
• 4. Reduces storm water runoff.
• 5. Structural number for load support is increased by 100% in most circumstances.
• 6. Textured Surface: Increases internal angle of friction between the infill material and the cell wall.
• 7. Perforated Cell Walls: Promotes lateral drainage and root growth in vegetated applications.
• 8. Reduces the impact on soft and saturated soils by a bridge effect created by the system.
• 9. Shear resistance of aggregate infills are greatly increased which enables the use of lower quality infill materials.
• 10. Extends the life of the pavement and reduces maintenance cost.
