How do grids work?

faq
the wall is being built, layers of geogrid are placed at specific heights. These layers of grid run the entire length of the wall and extend to certain lengths behind the wall. The soil is compacted around the grid layers, and the friction that develops interlocks the soil and grid. The layers tie the soil together to create a solid soil mass behind the wall which resists overturning and sliding. In a way, the grid becomes the structure and the wall becomes a facing.
