Terramesh

Maccaferri Terramesh is a reinforced soil system for stabilising steep and near vertical slopes. A Terramesh unit comprises a continuous horizontal panel of woven wire steel mesh geogrid with a integral gabion fascia unit. The fascia unit is filled with hard durable rock-fill, identical to a gabion, and the geogrid tail is then sandwiched between layers of compacted granular. Layers of Terramesh units are then constructed to form reinforced soil retaining structures of almost any height. The structure has the aesthetics of a gabion structure, with the reassurance and robustness of soil reinforcement.

Terramesh is rapid to construct, and can even reuse site won materials provided they meet our recommendations. This reuse of materials embraces sustainability of scarce resources, reducing taking unwanted materials from site as well as polluting truck movements.

Maccaferri Terramesh is BBA Approved.
