There is a great install guide available on the paving experts website, which details the proper installation requirements depending on the application.
When To Use EcoGrid E50
Tracked Vehicles
EcoGrid E50 is the only grid that can be used with tracked vehicles. EcoGrid has been thoroughly tested by tracked construction equipment and even battle tanks without failure. The 20-year guarantee is honoured even when used with tracked equipment by the manufacturer.
Temporary Depots & Loading Areas
Large construction projects often require areas for heavy equipment to be stored, loaded and offloaded. EcoGrid E50 is ideal for this application, offering good drainage, but also a stable surface to work on. It is cheaper and quicker to deploy than tarmac and concrete and far greener.
HGV Parking & Turning Areas
Turning HGV’s and other heavy goods vehicles exert heavy sideways loads onto the ground. Most grid systems cannot withstand these loads and are “torn apart” at their joints. This is NOT the case with EcoGrid E50, it can be used with heavy articulated vehicles without issue.
Forklift Operations
Forklift trucks have a small wheelbase and exert a heavy load in a small area. When turning they can put an exceptional force in a small area. EcoGrid E50 can withstand this force when correctly installed, this makes it ideal for builders yards and other similar applications as an alternative to traditional materials.
Tested And Approved
EcoGrid E50 is NATO approved, TUV Certified and used by both the British MOD and American military. This just goes to show how tough this product is. It can even be used unfilled as a temporary road product, it has an unfilled weight bearing capacity of 350t per square metre.
Cabin Supports & Platforms
EcoGrid E50 can be used to produce strong support platforms for cabins and temporary offices on site. The stacked grids are strong enough to take the load and are easily put into place.
By elevating the cabins off of the ground drainage for toilets and waste water can easily be run with enough fall to operate correctly (a far easier solution than digging down).
As can be seen in the attached images this is a very simple and effective solution, a true money saver.
Example E50 Installations
Council Car Park
This council car park was installed to provide overflow parking with sustainable drainage.
Temporary Road
This road was installed using E50 at a motorsport event and was used unfilled. The installation incorporated a geotextile underlay which is the white material shown.
Reinforcement of Paving
E50 can be used underneath traditional paving to spread the load of the paving above and ensure that weight is evenly distributed.
