REINFORCED SOIL SOLUTIONS

REINFORCED SOIL STRUCTURES

Flexible systems for slopes, retaining walls and embankments.

TYPICAL MODULAR REINFORCED SOIL SYSTEM
  • FACING SYSTEM
  • REINFORCED FILL
  • GEOGRID LAYERS
  • FOUNDATION (COMPACTED)
  • LEVELLING PAD
  • DRAINAGE AGGREGATE
Cutaway of a modular reinforced soil structure: concrete facing, geogrid layers through the reinforced fill, drainage aggregate, levelling pad and compacted foundation.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES

  • Terraced vegetated reinforced soil slope in flower.
    GREEN SLOPE SYSTEM
  • Modular concrete block retaining wall running alongside a road.
    MODULAR RETAINING WALL
  • Reinforced soil wall with an open galvanized steel mesh face, geotextile liner, geogrid layers and a granular drainage base.

  • STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE

    Loads, stability and service conditions are assessed for each structure.

  • DESIGN FLEXIBILITY

    Adaptable to site conditions, structure height and application.

  • MODULAR CONSTRUCTION

    Modular systems are assembled in repeating lifts as construction proceeds.

REINFORCED SOIL SOLUTIONS

VEGETATED REINFORCED SLOPE

Reinforcement, drainage and vegetation cover as one system.

Cutaway of a vegetated reinforced soil slope: vegetation cover across the face, HG-U geogrid layers through the reinforced fill, drainage aggregate and a perforated pipe at the base.
  • VEGETATION COVER
  • REINFORCED FILL
  • HG-U GEOGRID
  • DRAINAGE

Cutaway of a modular reinforced soil retaining wall at a bridge abutment: modular concrete facing units, geogrid layers through the reinforced compacted fill, a levelling pad and drainage aggregate with a perforated pipe.
  • BRIDGE ABUTMENT (STRUCTURAL BACKFILL)
  • REINFORCED, COMPACTED SOIL
  • GEOGRID REINFORCEMENT (TYP.)
  • MODULAR CONCRETE FACING UNITS

  • DRAINAGE AGGREGATE & PERFORATED PIPE

REINFORCED SOIL SYSTEM

MODULAR RETAINING WALL

Modular facing units, interlocked geogrid, compacted fill and drainage work as one structure.

Modular retaining wall on a client project: the concrete block face runs away along an embankment, with a field to the right and a bridge deck above.

DESIGN FLEXIBILITY

UP TO 1V:0.02H

Maximum wall batter (vertical to horizontal) is site specific and subject to design conditions including loads, geometry, soil characteristics, reinforcement selection, and governing codes. Engineering evaluation required.
