Railway ballast & slope stabilisation
Bryan Wedin, Chief Design Engineer, Presto Geosystems
Synopsis: Ballast degradation can rapidly occur under heavy axle loadings over soft subgrade soils.
Ballast failure can lead to speed reductions, track downtime, and costly maintenance and repairs. In
railroad applications, the GEOWEB® Ballast Stabilisation System reduces the vertical pressure reaching
the subgrade and provides a high-stiffness foundation. GEOWEB-stabilised ballast significantly reduces
ballast movement, aggregate rotation, and rail settlement—resulting in increased ballast life and long-term
performance.
Attendees will :
Understand the benefits of GEOWEB-stabilised ballast from accredited research and testing.
Learn how the GEOWEB stabilisation system can reduce vertical ballast pressure and ballast
movement.
Understand the typical applications for GEOWEB ballast stabilisation.
Learn how to apply GEOWEB stabilisation to extend rail life and reduce maintenance.
