What We Offer
Foundation support is a process that operates by designing a mechanically stabilized layer to increase bearing capacity and control settlement to withstand vertical structures. Our geogrid-incorporated foundation support system formulates a mechanically stabilized layer that interlocks with well-graded granular fills resulting in increased bearing capacity and limited settlements. The solution POME offers is an economical alternative to other traditional methods that may require significant over-excavation and replacement to increase bearing capacity and limit settlements. Our Geogrid Technology is the ideal solution to support embankment loads and Load Transfer Platforms placed over piles.
System Applications
- Embankment Foundation
- Foundation Over Piles
- Spread Footing Foundation
- Equipment foundation
How Our System Can Benefit Your Project
In the past 20 years, our geogrid systems have been utilized in construction projects around the Gulf region. Below are the benefits gained for using POME’s geogrid technology in foundation support systems:
- Controls total and differential settlement beneath foundation elements
- Distributes loads beneath foundation elements, increasing bearing capacity
- Reduces potential of local failures beneath footings
- Reduces the amount of over-excavation and replacement of weak soils, reducing construction cost and time
