Workshop Foundation : is there any point in using left-over geogrid to reinforce the concrete?

[ToughButterCup]

I'm planning an external workshop - the internal area will be 30 square meters. Following Chapter 10 of the NHBC guidance, I'm going to use this cross-section for the foundation;

 

 

I have some left over Geogrid from our build - this stuff 

 

I have a good deal more than 30 square meters of it.

According to the NHBC, I don't need any 393 - I intend to put in a Movement Joint anyway

I'm keen to see the back of the roll of Geogrid. It's fine when its underground, but a right pain in the Botticelli anywhere else.

Is there any point in putting it in the concrete as reinforcement ?

If there are no downsides, you can’t sell it, and it’s in the way why wouldn’t you?

I see downsides. Big stones will be isolated on  either side of this mesh, reducing the interlink, thus reducing the strength.

How would you support it?

Why not give it away?

If it was useful for concrete I'd expect it to be advertised for it.

Good point. So if I just put the mesh in contact with the ground and then put mot1 over the top of that?

that is fine and what it is for. it will prevent stone pushing down and mixing with mud.
