Maccaferri Terrawall® is a reinforced soil system suitable for near vertical retaining wall applications along highways and railways, mining areas, temporary wall applications and in areas where the terrain necessitates the construction of soil retention systems.
Similar to Terramesh®, Maccaferri Terrawall system is a unit made of continuous double twist steel wire mesh that forms the reinforcing panel and the facing element. The assembly requires minimal work with the major components pre-assembled in the factory.
The double twist mesh reinforcement takes advantage of the friction acting along the surface of the wire and, more importantly, the mechanical interlocking properties of the mesh with the backfill.
