Geo Fiber Construction Method

Outline

Geo Fiber is environmental friendly method and is stable for slope protection.、

  • Continuous fiber reinforcement earthwork
  • Land reinforcement earthwork
  • Vegetation Engineering

Continuous fiber reinforcement earthwork is the process, where sandy soil, continuous fiber ( Polyester) is mixed together with jet water and inject to slope protection part and to build thick soil structure earth surface
In addition, Earth’s reinforce Earth work is to raise the resistance of ground itself by embedding the steel resistor in the mountains and to integrate the continuous fiber reinforced soil.

Features

The main feature of Geo Fiber method is the continuous fiber reinforced soil which is the mixture of sandy soil and fiber and by imparting pseudo adhesion force, soil structure with strong shear strength protects the slope.
Geo Fiber method creates green landscape and is natural friendly that were not found in the conventional block holding walls and mortar concrete method.

  • Make a strong earth structure with strong shear force
  • Can easily introduce vegetation Engineering。
  • It can cope with various collapse forms
  • It is possible to shorten the period of construction period by mechanized construction
  • Effective use of resources
