PUBLIC WORKS NOTEX C

NOTEX C - Earth retention on slopes

Use

The slopes of structures or gentle natural inclines are subjected to climatic stress, which gradually erodes them. This degradation causes instability in the event of extensions, which are often located on the roadside or on busy public sites, likely to jeopardise user safety and incur significant restoration costs. These extensions must be protected by a geosynthetic.

NOTEX® C is a flexible reinforcement geogrid made with polyester cables enclosed in an acrylic coating, designed to stabilize soil or granular material on slopes up to 2H/1V. Its mesh aperture provides a good interlock with soil particles and promotes revegetation.

NOTEX® C can be installed to increase the stability of a soil veneer cover placed over a liner system on a slope. It supports the soil cover and minimizes the tensile strain on the underlying layers.

NOTEX® C is also suitable for soil reinforcement on rigid inclusions, bridge abutments and retaining walls, as well as the reinforcement of soil with low bearing capacity, roads, paths and railways.
