Applications, Features and Advantages
Improve the performance of your structural fill
in a wide range of applications...from single-layer road bases to multi-layer
earth retention structures. The cellular confinement system provides
innovative solutions to soil stabilization problems in a unique and
technically sound way. See specific applications listed below.

Support your loads while maintaining the
natural beauty of grass areas...from walkways to fire emergency access
lanes. Porous pavement systems are the ideal paving solution in
traffic areas where aesthetics and permeability are desired.

Geoweb® Load Support System
Confinement with the
load support system produces a stiff base with high flexural
strength. Acting like a semi-rigid slab, loads are distributed latterly
reducing subgrade contact pressures. The Geoweb system provides a stable
base for paved surfaces and surface stabilization for unpaved surfaces. Case Studies
Geoweb® Earth Retention System
Using a multi-layer design, the
earth retention system allows you to configure structures to your
application requirements. Classical methods of stability can be applied to
this system and computerized evaluation is available for a broad range of
infill, backfill and surcharge parameters. Case Studies
Geoweb® Slope Protection System
Cellular confinement with the
slope protection system confines and reinforces infill material. This greatly improves both vegetated and non-vegetated slopes' resistance to
erosive forces. Confinement prevents down-slope migration of individual
particles, caused by gravity and hydraulic traction. Case Studies
Geoweb® Channel Protection System
Cellular confinement with the channel protection system provides flexible, durable protection
within defined roughness and stability. Single or multi-layer protection
systems are configured to meet a wide range of structural and hydraulic
requirements. Case Studies
Geoblock® Porous Pavement System
The
porous pavement system, manufactured from up to 100% recycled
polyethylene, is a series of interlocking blocks designed to offer turf
protection and load support in areas used by heavy vehicles. The units
create a flexible structural bridge system within the topsoil layer to
support and distribute concentrated loads.
