| SLOPE PROTECTION USING MIRACELL CELLULAR
CONFINEMENT SYSTEM |
MiraCell(TM) cellular confinement system allows application
of vegetated and hard surfacing materials to steep slopes
by confining and reinforcing infill material. Long term
stability of slope cover and the integrity of underlying
soils are ensured while maintaining aesthetics.
The MiraCell Confinement System offers a broad range of
very effective, environmentally friendly way of treatment
for slopes that are subjected to erosive forces. The MiraCell
System with its inherent flexibility and simple but effective
anchoring techniques allows both vegetated and hard surfacing
to steep slopes..
The MiraCell System guarantees the integrity of underlying
soils by ensuring a well established slope cover material.
A very steep surface susceptible to erosion and which otherwise
cannot support plant life can be converted into a fully
vegetated stable slope.
Examples of MiraCell Slope Surface Protection
- Embankment slopes
- Cut slopes
- Shoreline revetments
- Containment dykes and levees
- Dam faces and spillways
- Earth covered structures
- Landfill caps
Selection of Infill Material
MiraCell can be infilled with range of material for specific
design requirements.
Topsoil with various selected vegetation
Aggregates (sand, gravel and stone)
Concrete of various strengths and surface finishes
Any combination of above to meet special conditions.
