Soil nails were installed to address deep-seated slope failure, while PROPEX® Armormax® provided surficial stability and erosion control.
The PROPEX® Armormax® system, featuring HPTRM and Engineered Earth Anchors®, reduced the need for additional soil nails while stabilizing the slope
The HPTRM locked in seeds and moisture, promoting rapid root development and ensuring long-term vegetation growth on the slope
From poor subgrade performance to roadway resilience
MIRAFI H2Rx repairs, weak and cracked roads in traffic-heavy Pulau Indah, Malaysia. MIRAFI H2Rx was installed for separation, mechanical stabilization and moisture management, providing the solution to building durable climate-resilient roadways.
When traditional sand bunds fail: A GEOTUBE marine solution for land reclamation
When traditional sand bund construction failed on an extremely soft marine clay seabed, GEOTUBE® Marine systems provided a stable containment solution that helped advance a land reclamation project for 112 acres.
GSE HD geomembrane lined salt ponds ensure long-term brine containment
GSE® HD geomembrane lined over 3.4 million m² of evaporation ponds to prevent brine seepage under extreme heat and UV exposure. This continuous barrier eliminated salt discharge and protected the surrounding environment.
When gabion baskets failed to prevent continuous slope failure on the hill behind the Metal Art Museum, a solution was needed to provide permanent slope stabilization. It was critical that the slope be stabilized against both global and surficial failure.
To provide a geotechnically sound alternative, soil nails were used to stabilize the deep-seated failure and the PROPEX® Armormax® and Engineered Earth Armoring Solutions® was chosen to provide surficial stability.
With its combination of the High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat (HPTRM) and PROPEX Armormax Engineered Earth Anchors®, this system provided a dynamic erosion control and slope stabilization solution and allowed for shorter and less soil nails to be used than originally designed. The HPTRM component is engineered to lock-in seeds and moisture, promoting rapid root development and allowing the slope to vegetate quickly.
