MasterGeo GRP BAR

Continuously Threaded Solid Bar (formerly BluGeo GRP)

How Does MasterGeo GRP BAR Work?

MasterGeo GRP BAR is a Glass-Fibre Reinforced Plastic continuously threaded solid bar which forms a high load carrying capacity ground anchor and soil nail.
MasterGeo GRP BAR has been designed as an easy to install, light weight, durable alternative to traditional steel bar suitable for civil engineering applications.
MasterGeo GRP BAR is designed for use with our specialised MasterCrete grout system for applications including temporary and permanent face stabilisation, slope stabilisation, ground support and systematic rock bolting. MasterGeo GRP BAR is used where additional durability or ease of application is required over traditional anchoring systems.

Recommended Uses:

• Rock bolting and soil nailing – provides structural support in tunnelling and underground excavations.

• Temporary ground support – stabilizes rock and soil during construction phases.

• Pre-support measures (e.g., forepoling and spiling) – reinforces weak ground conditions in tunnels and deep excavations.

• Ground stabilization in underground mines – strengthens mine walls and ceilings to enhance safety.

• Roof and rib support – prevents collapses in mining and underground structures.

• Cuttable reinforcement for safe excavation – allows for easier cutting through reinforced areas without damaging equipment.

• Slope stabilization – reduces landslide risks on steep terrain and excavated slopes.

• Retaining wall reinforcement – strengthens retaining structures to support soil loads.

• Bridge abutments and decks – provides lightweight, corrosion-resistant reinforcement for bridge structures.

• Concrete reinforcement where non-corrosive reinforcement is needed – ideal for applications requiring high durability in harsh environments.

• Tunnel reinforcement – Enhances stability and longevity in tunnel linings and excavation support.

• Embankment stabilization – Prevents soil erosion and maintains structural integrity in road and rail embankments.

• Road cut and slope protection – Strengthens roadside excavations and cuttings to prevent failures.

• Reinforcement in corrosive environments – Ideal for structures exposed to water, chemicals, or harsh weather.
  Seawalls, piers, and docks – Provides durable reinforcement in marine and coastal applications.
