To prevent scouring of the banks, a stacked wall of concrete layers can be specified, to act as a retaining wall and front defence to river flow.<\/p>
Particularly suited to:<\/p>
Protection of the rivers banks often extends 5m+ upstream and downstream outside of the important bridge structure<\/p>
Traditionally, this is can be with large quantities of individually stacked bags that are labour intensive, heavy to handle and slow to install.<\/p>
The mattwork retaining wall system eliminates the manual handling and allows the river banks to protected in far less work days.<\/p>
The protection is engineered to suit the specific site requirements:-<\/p>
The hessian front face is made from natural fibres that will decay over time to leave a plain concrete finish.<\/p>
The units are made from constant thickness (220 mm thick) mattress fabric joined to a hessian fabric front. Each layer is pump filled in situ with a highly fluid micro concrete (C28\/35). Multiple layers can be filled each day, allowing for a rapid install.<\/p>
