Description

EnviroGrid effectively holds slope cover materials in place, thus reducing the potential for erosion. Cell walls check the runoff streams associated with rainfall, keeping the overall system intact. The infill material also rests within individual cells, allowing for much higher angles of repose. EnviroGrid filled with soil promotes vegetation as both another source of reinforcement and natural aesthetics. Overall effectiveness of the system is increased with the plant roots integrated into the grid system. Envirogrid | Channel Wall Protection Channels are oftentimes subject to debilitating erosion due to the water contained by the channel walls. Depending on the velocity of the water flow and the frequency and degree of stormwater runoff, severe hydraulic stresses upon the channel walls can pose significant dangers to the system. Multiple considerations are necessary to achieve a safe, environmental, and durable channel system: – Not only must the system be resistant to erosion, but stable under the slope geometry and hydrostatic uplift forces. – The channel walls must also be somewhat flexible in order to ensure integrity in the face of localized deformations from seasonal factors and sub-base void formation. However, the system must also be sturdy and durable enough to avoid degradation and uplift from the hydraulic forces present. – System permeability is desirable in some situations to allow natural drainage. A pervious channel wall can relieve hydrostatic uplift forces, thus stabilizing the system. Standard soil and grass linings face the danger of erosion from extended water flow.
