A Solution for soil enhancement
The experience acquired and the desire to ensure optimum
performance of the finished structure while simplifying
installation, have led to the development of a product
in Zinc and PVC coated double-twist woven wire mesh
specially produced for this application.
The advantages of Terramesh:
• Permeability of the front face, guaranteeing
drainage of the backfill
• Flexibility, enabling the structure to take
up ground settlement without compromising structural
integrity
• Ease of construction
• Significant soundproofing characteristics (18-28
decibel)
• Structural safety in case of fire near the front
face
• The reduction of environmental impact through
the use of vegetation incorporated into the front face
of the structure
• The versatility of gabions, which allows the
formation of a structure with vertical, battered or
stepped front face as required and minimization of environmental
impact.
There are two different basic Terramesh structures,
depending on the type of front face; one is in stone-filled
box gabions (Terramesh unit) and the other is entirely
filled with soil (Green Terramesh Reinforced unit "Soil"
type).
The Terramesh Unit is used for soil reinforcement while
Green Terramesh Reinforced Unit "Soil" type
is used for soil consolidation works and/or for retention
of embankment and slopes.
