The Terramesh System was the critical geotechnical solution deployed at the University of Khorfakkan campus expansion to ensure the absolute safety and long-term stability of the new recreational and residential infrastructure against the challenging high mountain slope. This advanced Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) wall utilized double-twisted wire mesh reinforcement tails extending deep into the compacted backfill, transforming potentially unstable mountain material into a robust, monolithic block that prevents sliding and settlement.

To align with the university’s environmental commitment, the final structure integrates with nature through greenery on its top surface and across the facia, allowing the structure to soften into the landscape. Furthermore, the wall’s rock-filled gabion facing acted as an immediate protective barrier, containing minor rockfall and ensuring free drainage to dissipate hydrostatic pressure. Protected by high-performance GalMac and Polimac coatings, this flexible, durable, and vegetated system secured the investment in the UKF’s sports fields and facilities, guaranteeing a safe, resilient, and aesthetically pleasing environment for generations of students.
