Pavement/Runway Improvement
Many new pavement overlays are subject to reflective cracking. These cracks significantly decrease structural strength and allow water to penetrate into sub layers , resulting in severe damage. This cracking is due to inability of the overlay to withstand shear and tensile stresses created by either traffic loading or by thermal cycling (expansion and contraction).
Glassgrids/glasseals/Compogrids (combination of Glass fiber reinforced Geogrids and geotextiles) are used to provide solutions by delaying reflective cracking, bearing loads, increasing life of pavement significantly.
