In
case of heavy erosion and scouring which takes place in sea
coasts due to extensive wave action, it is essential to break up
the waves and control erosion. In such cases, we suggest the use
of Toe Gabions using Tuflex Geonet 153 along with the Mattress
made out of the same material. Such an application helps in:
|
|
 |
|
• |
Break
up and absorption of wave energy. |
|
• |
This
leads to process of silting and consequently we get permanent
solution to the erosion problem. |

 |
Gabions and Mattresses for waterfront protection are easily
constructed at site in various sizes by fabricating a box like
structure from the geogrid roll (ready made netting) with
joining being done with polymer braids. The box structure is
filled with stones and the cover lid closed and braided.
