Erosion Control Concrete Mats

Shoreflex is a high strength geogrid encapsulated in a matrix of 5 000 psi concrete blocks 6 5 x 6 5 x 2 25 spaced 1 5 apart and attached to an erosion control blanket or high performance turf reinforcement mat.

Erosion control concrete mats.

They manufacture two types of erosion protection systems. Armorflex blocks have specific tested hydraulic capacities and are laced longitudinally with revetment cables to provide ease of handling and rapid installation. The mats are made of a matrix of individual concrete blocks placed together to form an erosion resistant overlay with specific hydraulic performance characteristics. Mats are delivered to the job site by either flatbed or boom truck.

The blocks are interconnected with a 50 50kn geogrid mesh which is inert to most chemicals and may last up to 75 years. When possible the 4 foot by 16 foot mats is delivered for placement by installer directly from truck to prepared ground minimizing handling. The flexible concrete erosion mats and an articulated concrete cable block mat. The cable concrete erosion control system offers quick installation by the contractor or owner.

The dimensions are 165mm x 165mm base 50mm x 50mm top with a height of 60mm. Why contech start a project. Shoreflex standard mat size is 8 x32 but custom sizes are available upon request. Australian concrete mats is a permanent hard armour erosion protection for the ground surface whilst also supporting the natural environment.

Armorflex armorflex is a flexible interlocking matrix of cellular concrete blocks of uniform size shape and weight used for hard armor erosion control. Permanent erosion control australian concrete mats offer simple efficient engineered solutions for issues that arise from australia s harsh environmental conditions with their concrete products. Permanent site solution flexamat is a vegetated concrete block mat utilized for stabilizing slopes channels low water crossings inlet outlet protection and shorelines. The space between the shapes enables the mat to contour to the landscape and vegetation can grow through.

The erosion control mat has concrete shapes embedded into high strength polypropylene geogrid. These revetment mats can also be used to reinforce embankments protect shorelines and restore wetlands. The flexible concrete structures are placed over the underground pipeline allowing water to flow over them without eroding the pipeline underneath. Concrete cloth geosynthetic cementitious composite mats gccm are a groundbreaking material technology that makes it possible to use concrete on slopes in water and in other hard to reach locations without forms or mixing and minimal equipment requirements.

Submar erosion control mats are used to protect onshore pipelines from erosion.
