Revetments Revetments are primarily built to reduce the hydraulic loads acting on the soil with the aim of preventing or halting erosion. The Fabriform™ system is suited to many deferent types of revetment applications in varying locations, as can be seen in the typical examples shown below, these are just a few of the hundreds of projects completed. Rivers
Approximately 300,000 m² of matt laid over a 16 km section of river to protect the outer bends from undercut erosion. Installation was carried out by local labour in teams of 3-4
Tidal Reaches
Installed 1966-68, along a tidal stretch of river in southern England. After over 30 years of use the Local River Authority advised that the systems long term maintenance is much lower than that of rock armour. Marinas
Sandy ground material on the site of a proposed marina was subject to underscour erosion, in order to prevent this matt was laid over the fine sand material. Due to the porosity of the bed, and the need for fines retentation FP150 matt was selected as the most appropriate in this situation.
Harbours Used in conjunction with rock armour to limit wave run up.
