High load grid for soil consolidation

www.geoplast.it

RUNFLOOR

ADVANTAGES
Eliminates mud thanks to the 85%permeability of the grid and the water permeable subgrade..
Stabilise loose and uneven soil with the special shape of the grid and its load-bearing capacity of 500 t/m2.
Reduction of surface maintainance eliminating holes and dips.
RUNFLOOR permanently separates the subgrade from the top layer, preventing different materials from mixing.
RUNFLOOR is anti-slip, UV-resistant, chemically inert, and environmentally friendly as it is made of regenerated PE LD
(Low Density Polyethylene).
The installation of RUNFLOOR is simple and fast as it is very light and easy to assemble thanks to its special T-joint

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1

LEVEL AND COMPACT THE DIGOUT (SLANT AT 1% SLOPE); IN PRESENCE OF UNSTABLE SOIL IT IS
BEST TO LAY A NON-WOVEN GEOTEXTILE 130 g/m2 WEIGHT;

LAY A STABILISER SUBBASE OF WASHED GRAVEL, THICKNESS 15 - 20 cm;

LAY A BASE OF FINE GRAVEL, 4 cm THICKNESS. PARTICLE SIZE 2 - 5 mm;

LAY THE RUNFLOOR GRID;

FILL THE GRID CELLS TO THE BRIM WITH FINE GRAVEL (PARTICLE SIZE 2 - 5 mm) OR SAND;
N.B. it is possible to lay RUNLOOR directly existing surface (provided it guarantees stability) and fill the cells as per point 5.

1

Level and compact the digout (slant at 1% slope); in presence of unstable soil
it is best to lay non non-woven geotextile 130 g/m2;

Lay a stabiliser subbase of washed gravel 15 to 20 cm depth;

Lay a base of fine gravel, 4 cm depth, particle size 2 - 5 mm;

Lay the RUNFLOOR grid;

a) Fill the cells to the brim with volcanic lapillo (particle size 0 - 4 mm), which is porous
and retains moisture in the riding surface avoiding dust;
b) Alternatively fill the cells to the brim with riding surface sand;

Cover the grids with a 20 - 15 cm layer of riding surface sand.

RIDING SURFACES
Used with specific footing materials, RUNFLOOR is ideal for riding surfaces:
1

Absorbs the dynamic loads created during riding, galloping and jumping, remaining
compact and elastic at the same time;

Avoids slipping;

Assures good water drainage whilst maintaining the correct moisture of the top
layer, thus avoiding dust;

Easy to install and remove after the event;

Easy maintenance.

EVENTS

CREATION OF CIRCULAR SURFACES WITH RUNFLOOR

When flooring lungeing rings join


the RUNFLOOR grids staggered,
and minimise or totally avoid
trimming the grid along rounded
edges. In any event RUNFLOOR
can easily be cut without loosing
any of its functionality.

SPECIAL APPLICATIONS

HEAVY LOADS

SLOPES AND ROAD BANKS

LANDINGS STRIPS AND


HELICOPTER PADS

SLIPWAYS

To create green surfaces suitable for the transit or stationing of heavy vehicles:

Lay a drainage base of 10-15 thickness with volcanic lapillo, particle size
5-20 mm, with crush resistence 35 N/mm2 (UNI 7549/7). Alternatively
use well compacted washed fine gravel;

Create a layer of mixed volcanic sands (enriched with nursery soil and
organic fertilisers), particle size 0 - 5 mm, 3 - 4 cm thickness, over the
the base. Compact and level off;

Place the RUNFLOOR grid(*);

Fill the cells with:


a) a blend of silica sand, nursery soli and horganic humus;
b) a blend of silica sand, nursery soli and horganic humus;

Level off and seed.

*In the case of a gravel surface after point 3 just fill the cells to the brim with gravel.
