Download Case Study

Ferguson Waterworks was a key geogrid distributor for the Princeton Road Project. We saved the customer $82,118 by recommending a switch from Tensar TX140 to Tensar HX145 geogrid, distributing a total of 364 rolls to cover the 150-acre property in Nebraska.

Why choose Tensar HX145 over Tensar TX140?

While both Tensar HX145 and TX140 are superior geogrid products, the Tensar TX140 is made-to-order. Not only does this increase the total cost, but it also increases the distribution window, potentially extending the project timeline. By switching to Tensar HX145, we helped save the Princeton Road Project $0.40 per square yard, reducing the total cost by $82,118. Furthermore, TX145 reduced the required rock and deformed 21% less.

What was the Tensar HX145 cost breakdown?

How was the Tensar geogrid used?

Ferguson Waterworks recommended the Tensar H-Series Geogrid to stabilize the 150-acre employee parking lot due to the product’s advanced stabilization, availability, and cost savings. In addition, the H-Series installs quickly and has lower lifecycle expenses in comparison to similar geogrids.

Case studies - results from installing permeable paving & machine technology to get an abandoned site and parking lot up to stormwater code

In order to revitalize and meet stormwater codes, the abandoned parking area at the Shoppes at Fashion Square in Orlando, FL, required updates. With a permeable paving system and machine technology, we helped the client achieve their goals, save $1 million, and complete the project in just 10 days.

ShearForce 10 installed beneath and around operational solar panels in order to prevent erosion.

With solar panels in place and operational, an immediate and effective erosion control solution was imperative. Especially considering the panels were positioned next to channels, drip lines, and spillways.
