Stalwartone Geo Strap
Stalwartone Geo Strap is based on simple concept as originally conceived by its inventor, French architect and engineer Henri Vidal, the interlacing of soil and reinforcements develops friction at the points of contact between the two, resulting in a permanent and predictable bond and creating a unique composite construction material.
Best rated product for soil and structure reinforcment.
Stalwartone Geo Strap is planar structures consisting of a core of high tenacity polyester yarn tendons encased in a polymer sheath. The strips are suitable for reinforcement or RE-Wall application in combination with concrete wall facing. They amongst the most tried and tested Stalwartone Geo Strap in the world offering 120 year design life and high performance. The incredibly tough polymer sheath is resistance to Physical, Chemical and Biological conditions found in reinforced soil structures.

Frequently asked questions
- Stalwartone geo strap is reinforcement element which is made from high tenacity polyester yarn covered with polymer sheath to strengthen structure by reinforcing soil by layers.
- Soil reinforcement is a technique which is used to improve the strength and stiffness of soil, Different engineering techniques are used to enhance the strength of soil, like Stalwartone Geo Strap, It is a combination of earth fill and reinforcing strips. They are capable of bearing large tensile strength. Soil reinforcement is a modern technique which is employed in various projects to prevent the failure of slopes of soil and it improves the bearing capacity of the soil.
- A Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) retaining wall is a composite structure consisting of alternating layers of compacted backfill and soil reinforcement elements, fixed to a wall facing.
- Stalwartone strap strap is used as reinforcement element.
- Stalwartone geo strap is available in 30kN to 100 kN capacity in general.
- Stalwartone geo strap is fully customized to match exact requirement.
- Flexibility to accommodate high differential settlement and several feet of total settlement.
- Bearing pressure is distributed over a wide foundation area.
- Extreme wall heights can be achieved.
- Extreme loads can be carried (bridge abutment footings, cranes).
- High resistance to seismic ground movement and other dynamic forces.
- Free-draining, due to granular backfill and open panel joints.
- Form liners or elaborate murals can customize the aesthetics.
- Soil reinforcing strips can easily accommodate obstructions within the MSE backfill volume.
- Very versatile.
- Special design can allow for nearly any geometry.
- Rapid, predictable, and repetitive construction.
- Superior finished wall alignment
- There are four general types of soil — from dry. dense and hard (typel) to wet,muddy, and unable to support itself (type4).
- Type 1: Hard, very dense, low naturat moisture, no sign of water seepage and need mechanical equipment to excavate it.
- Type2: Very stiff. dense. low to medium natural moisture, medium degree of internal strength and has dump appearance after its excavated.
- Type3: Stiff to firm, compact to loose in constituency, may be backfill of previously excavated soil, sign of surface cracking and water seepage low degree of internal strength, run easily in conical pile.
- Type4: Soft to very soft, very loose in constituency, very sensitive, runs flow easily, wet or muddy, almost no internal strength.
Choice of Stalwartone geo strap is depends on type of soil. i.e. if type for then heavy duty Stalwartone strap should required due to non internal strength of soil.
- Yes. The different methods of manufacture create products that look and feel quite different It therefore follows that the different forms of Stalwartone geo strap will work with soil to perform the reinforcing function in different ways.
- Yes. Stalwartone Strap can provide technical assistance to select the correct product and number of layers of Stalwartone geo strap required for particular scheme.
