Over the past 40 years, Tensar has invented many products and systems that have improved how we build pavements and other site improvements like retaining walls. Most of our solutions are based on a product called geogrid, which was invented by Tensar’s founder, Dr. Brian Mercer.
We make several types of geogrid, which can be used to stabilize granular materials and reinforce soil to improve their engineering properties.
We also offer design software for these applications, which is widely used in the industry. You can download our software for free using the links on this page.
We know our future growth depends on providing our technology and expertise across the engineering profession, where design decisions are made every day on the projects that make our world a better place. We invite you to learn about our technology as you build your career.
We also have a Faculty Resource page. Click the button below to access. Feel free to share the link with your CE professors.
Tensar+™ Design Software
Tensar+ is a free, cloud-based software that allows engineers, contractors, and owners to design with geogrid in a variety of applications, including pavement construction, soft soil stabilization, and haul road design. It recently earned its third consecutive year as one of ConstrucTech's Top Products.
