|
| Reinforced soil walls and abutments are
composed of wall facing and fill reinforced with URGRID products.
|
|
THE ADVANTAGES |
Simple, rapid construction
Aesthetic, wide range of possible face types and colors
Easily form complex or curved geometry
Accommodate base deformation and have high resistance to vibration
and earthquakes
Improve the bearing capacity and factor of safety of a structure
Cost-savings compared with traditional reinforced concrete and gravity
structures
|
|
 |
|
| In environmentally sensitive areas steep,
vegetated slopes can often be built in place of the hard-faced structures
such as brick, stone, or concrete. |
|
|
THE ADVANTAGES |
Convenient construction of reduced land take in construction of roads
and railways
Simple and rapid construction
Allows to choose from a range of finishes and slope angles with attractive
results
Safety margins can be achieved with permanent vegetation faces to
integrate spent
- quarries into
the local environment
Improve the bearing capacity and factor of safety of a structure
Cost-effective alternative to retaining walls
