As our nation experiences a never before seen extreme expansion of our electrical grid, Baselok supports the electrical distribution sector with geosynthetic solutions that ensure reliable access to remote substations and transmission lines. We stabilize access roads, working platforms for electrical substations, and tower foundations, enabling rapid deployment and maintenance of critical power grids.
Electrical substations require stable, level platforms capable of supporting heavy transformers. Baselok geogrids provide exceptional bearing capacity over weak soils and virtually eliminate differential settlement which is oftentimes a consideration with robust pad designs.
Our solutions reduce excavation depth and imported fill requirements, accelerating substation construction.
Maintaining transmission lines often involves traversing difficult, remote terrain. We stabilize unpaved access roads to ensure year-round utility vehicle access utilizing our Baselok Geocell and Geogrid products.
Reach out to our professional Engineering Consultants and let us show you the proven site access tricks of the trade.
Transmission towers are often located in remote, hard-to-access terrain. Baselok products enhance the soil bearing capacity and offer site access to all equipment from drilling trucks to heavy cranes. Our professionals can design project specific crane pads to ensure efficiency and safety on all of your installations.
This provides critical stability, especially in areas with expansive or highly variable soil conditions.
Underground electrical distribution requires stable trenching. Baselok geogrid can be easily trenched through and drilling piers is not an issue, as the geogrid shears at the trench face and will not destroy the sub-grade or tangle in augers or trenching equipment. This key attribute makes Baselok Geogrids a preferred sub-grade reinforcement method for electrical sub-station designers.
