Channel Protection geocell

• Geocell system provides a wide variety of economical, flexible protection treatments for open channels and hydraulic structures. The system provides stability and protection of channels exposed to erosive conditions ranging from low-to- high flows either intermittent or continuous.
• Geocell can be used for channel and shoreline protection and on scour aprons, boat ramps and spillways, geocell  avoids the need to install costly load support structures.

Typical Applications

• Swales and drainage ditches
• Stormwater diversion or containment
• Process water channels or containment
• Spillways / Down chutes / drop structures
• Culvert outfalls
• intermittent of continous / low-to-high flow channels.

Subgrade Preparation

• Excavate and shape foundation soils.
• Insatll a geotextile underlayer on prepared surfaces.
• If required, install geogrid underlayer on prepared Surfaces. Geocell panel placement and anchorage.
• Subject to site requirement, generally follow the sloppe protection installation method or earth retention installtion method.

Infill Material

• Place chosen infill material in expanded cells
• Limit drop height to a maximum of 1m to avoid damage or displacement of the cell walls.
• Compact infill matetial per engineer's specification.

Infill materials, subject to site conditions, include :

• Top soil for low to moderate and intermittent flow conditions.
• Granular materials including gravel and concrete for channels subject to severe hydraulic and mechanical stresses.
