Rock Slopes Prtotection
Weathering and freeze-thaw action can often lead to fracturing and spalling on rock slopes, creating the hazard of falling rock fragments and ongoing erosion.
Tensar grids can be draped over the face and secured with rock anchors to act as a rock slope protection
cladding to control loose rock fragments and remove the hazard. This can allow soil particles to be retained and facilitates the subsequent development of vegetation.
