Geosynthetics are used in temporary works applications and provide significant cost and time savings throughout the construction process. From stabilising temporary access roads, haul roads, site compounds, embankments and slopes.
ABG's range of geotextiles and geogrids are quick to install compared to traditional methods, reducing the volume of natural materials required, saving material and transport costs.
ABG Geosynthetics' products provide permanent and temporary solutions for ground reinforcement, slope reinforcement, erosion control, pavement reinforcement and structural drainage.
ABG products are proven and tested for use in temporary works applications.
Haul Roads / Temporary Access Roads
Abgrid geogrids, Trigrid geogrids, Abtex woven and Terrex NW non-woven geotextiles and Abweb geocells can all be used to reduce the construction time and materials required for haul roads and temporary access routes across construction sites. Our staff are able to offer cost-benefit advice on which is best suited to your project. Abweb TRP is a geocellular system for protecting tree roots where a temporary access route is required without damaging nearby trees.

Tree Root Protection
Abweb TRP geocell protects tree roots where a pavement or road is to be constructed without damaging nearby trees.

Site Compounds
Site compounds require access routes, temporary car parking and storage areas. ABG's range of Trigrid and Abgrid geogids provide ground stabilisation by mechanically stabilising granular materials effectively. Abtex woven geotextile and Terrex NW geotextile provide separation functions when constructing unpaved access roads and parking areas.

Crane Pads / Piling Mats
ABG Geogrids and geotextiles are ideal for temporary applications including stabilising weak ground for mobile cranes, piling rigs and working platforms. Geogrids mechanically interlock with well grades angular stone, reducing sub-base thickness and increasing bearing capacity. ABG Truckcell provides a permeable grass or gravel stabilised surface.

Temporary Earthworks
Drainage is a major consideration in all Civil Engineering earthworks projects including temporary works. ABG Fildrain is a Fin Drain system that saves installation time and reduces costs compared to traditional stone based drainage layers.
Where temporary slopes and embankments are constructed, ABG provide a range of erosion control mats and geocells to confine fill material to reinforce the surface structure.

Specific design advice and guidance is available from our experienced in house technical team who will help ensure the right product is specified for your specific temporary application
