Installing Recycled Plastic ground reinforcement grids is a straightforward process that enhances surface stability for various applications, including driveways, pathways, and parking areas. Follow these steps to ensure proper installation:
- Site Preparation:
- Excavation: Remove the existing surface to a depth that accommodates the grid thickness plus any sub-base material.
- Sub-Base Installation: Lay a compacted sub-base layer, such as crushed stone or gravel, to provide a stable foundation.
- Leveling and Compaction:
- Ensure the sub-base is level and well-compacted to prevent future settling.
- Weed Membrane Application:
- Place a permeable weed membrane over the sub-base to inhibit weed growth while allowing water drainage.
- Grid Placement:
- Position the plastic ground reinforcement grids on the prepared surface, interlocking them securely to cover the desired area.
- Infill Material Addition:
- Fill the grids with suitable infill material, such as gravel, soil, or grass seed, depending on the intended use.
- Ensure the infill is level with or slightly above the top of the grids.
- Final Compaction:
- Compact the infill material to stabilise the surface and lock the grids in place.
By following these steps, you can effectively install heavy-duty ground grids, resulting in a durable and permeable surface suitable for various applications.
