Solutions overview

Reinforced Steepened Slopes (RSS) are Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) slopes that provide grade separation with face inclinations flatter than seventy degrees (70°).

Pond Capping is the use of a geosynthetic to safely contain hazardous or non-hazardous sludge that has accumulated in an industrial use storage area. Earthwork construction over soft sludge is required to cap various manufacturing waste products.

Groynes are structures that run perpendicular to the coastline and intercept the transport of sediment within the surf zone. As well as preventing beach erosion, groynes facilitate sand accretion by slowing down water velocities.

Foundation Consolidation is the use of geosynthetic drainage materials to accelerate the consolidation of soft foundation soils.

Reinforced Embankments are raised earth structures that incorporate soil reinforcement elements, which are constructed to hold back water, carry a roadway, and generally create an elevated area of land.

Drainage is the natural or artificial removal of surface and sub-surface water from an area. Drainage systems that incorporate geotextile filters retain and prevent fine grains of soil from passing into, and potentially clogging the drainage system.

Dewatering is the use of a Geotube® containment technology to remove water from solid or semi-solid material including soil. Geotube® dewatering technology is used for projects large and small, because of its simplicity and low cost.

Subgrade Stabilization is the use of geosynthetic reinforcement elements to provide constructability and access over very soft soils. Its use establishes a well-compacted non-yielding platform with uniform load support.

Breakwaters are marine structures that have the primary function of dissipating wave energy. They reduce the wave energy by partial reflection as well as by energy breaking on the structure.

Basal Reinforcement is the use of a geosynthetic reinforcement element to stabilize an embankment over soft soils.
