Erosion control geogrid RIVEL SYSTEM

for retaining wallsroadpedestrian green space

The Tenax Rivel system enables the creation of reinforced steep slopes with green face that can be used for slope enlargement, landslide stabilisation, construction of road and railway embankments, rockfall barriers, noise barriers, containment embankments. Integrated reinforce system The Tenax Rivel system enables the construction of structures with a face inclined up to 85° and a finish made up of lawn, climbing plants or other herbs, without using concrete. Thanks to its adaptability, it can be used both for small private works and large public works. Works can be implemented easily and quickly, without the need of skilled workforce or particular machinery. Materials can be moved manually and the soil in site can be used as fill soil in most cases, thus saving on construction costs. Bends and terracing can be created since the system is flexible, therefore the structure can adapt to the surrounding environment harmoniously. Technical support at 360° Tenax Technical Competence Center assists Designers in choosing the materials and supports them in the design activities to ensure compliance with the applicable technical regulation. The reinforcement element is constituted by the Tenax TT uniaxial extruded geogrids in HDPE which interact with the soil and improve its mechanical performance. The soil-geogrid structure combines the compressive strength of the soil with the tensile strength of the geogrid, creating a material with improved characteristics. The metal formworks on the face, equipped with specific retaining bars, provide guide and support during work. They are sacrificial and do not have a structural function.
