The Naue Steel P system combines Secugrid® geogrid reinforcement with longterm (permanent) steel-skin facings to create reinforced soil structures amenable to numerous slope shapes. Vegetation is allowed on slopes up to 70°. For steeper slopes on which vegetation is desired, special plantings and irrigation are necessary.
For Naue Steel P, the Secugrid® primary reinforcement is fastened to the steel shells (e.g., L-shaped wire forms) to create a strong interface. To prevent soil erosion along the galvanised steel facing, Secutex® nonwoven filter geotextiles or Secumat® erosion control mats are used. The Naue Steel P system for reinforced slopes and reinforced walls is highly adaptable to project-specific requirements and geometries, resulting in economical solutions supporting natural vegetation.
Landslide, slope and embankment restorations
Slope stabilisations up to 70°
Vegetated slopes with gradients between 45° and 70°
Retaining wall structures up to 90°
Road and rail noise barriers
Permanent stability even up to 90°
Green solution
High load capacity
Variable spacers allow site-specific slope face adjustment
Quick and easy construction
Site soils (including cohesive soils) can be used
Extremely economical, due to the ability to utilise more-affordable cohesive soils rather than dispose of or replace them with non-cohesive soils
Secugrid® geogrids can be used with cement stabilised and lime stabilised soils
Ecological benefits associated with the use of local soils include decreased transportation pollution (and cost) and conservation of natural resources
