These are engineered solutions that retains the earth/fill. Reinforced soil walls can be designed and constructed to fit a wide range of site conditions and project requirement. They can be built at different heights and length with the help of geosynthetic products such as geostrip/geogrid as reinforcing element and different fascia for upholding earth behind it or it can be customised based on the specific needs of the project. This is particularly important in areas with uneven terrain or slopes.
Where right of way is restricted, walls needs to be constructed vertical or with inward batter of 1°.
It is also an engineered retaining structure with gabion box acting as fascia and geogrid as reinforcing element to stabilize the soil. Gabion boxes are filled with stones to enhance the aesthetic appearance from fascia side.
It is the mass gravity wall which uses gabion cages filled with stones to retain soil behind it. These are delivered flat packed and then assembled & filled with stones at site according to project requirements.
It is also the mass gravity wall made with geocell fascia and its expanded form is filled with granular soil. It is further ensured that hydrostatic pressure are dissipated through perforations provided in geocell. After laying onto the slope the exposed surfaces of geocell can be vegetated for aesthetic appearance.
These are steepened embankments constructed generally at slopes < 70°. To construct steepened slopes reinforcing element are placed horizontally to increase slope stability. On fascia side, geosynthetic wrap around or welded wire mesh can be placed to prevent soil erosion. Vegetation can also be grown to increase the aesthetic appearance.
