lake site is subject to rockfall hazard and has been a part of Southern region Rockfall Hazard Assessment program since 1999.  A major event occurred in June of 2013, when water ran over rock cut across much of the site and dislodged rock on site.  The Site is located at Sentury Mountain along Highway 3. The initial assessment and preliminary design were done by Amec Foster Wheeler. Alberta Transportation wanted to have a more permanent solution and approached Maccaferri Canada Ltd in order to discuss the feasibility of designing a rockfall embankment for this site.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<div class=\"container-full text-bocolor-block-green\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12\">\n            <div class=\"container box-container\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-12\">\n                        <h3>Solution<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>    \n    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12\">\n            <div class=\"container box-container\">\n                <div class=\"row\">\n                    <div class=\"col-12 content\">\n                        <p>Simulations and rolling rock tests conducted by Ministry of Alberta resulted in a series of design parameters that required the structure must be 5.32m in height , have a maximum base width of 6.87m, and be able to withstand a maximum rockfall impact energy of 2300kJ. Terramesh System was selected for this. The Construction was started in June 2016 and ended in August 2016. Maccaferri supplied 600 sq. m of Terrawall system with all accessories. The length of embankment was a set at 80 m.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div><div class=\"wp-block-mac-container-block box-container\"><div class=\"container\"><h2>Used Products<\/h2><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-sm-12 col-md-12 col-lg-3 col-xl-3 col-xxl-3\"><div class=\"wp-block-mac-card-new-block block-latest-news-container\"><div class=\"card\"><div class=\"content-images\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"box-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maccaferri.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Terramesh_0-1-e1734536633225.jpg\" alt=\"TerraMesh\" title=\"TerraMesh\" \/><\/div><div class=\"card-body\"><h6>TerraMesh<\/h6><span class=\"abstract\">Maccaferri Terramesh\u00ae Family includes different facing options to build a Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) structures and Reinforced Soil Sl<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maccaferri.com\/ca\/products\/terramesh\/\" class=\"cta\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"TerraMesh\">View\n                           <span class=\"text\" value=\"\" \/>\n                           <\/a><div data-post-id=\"221294\" class=\"star \" title=\"Add to wishlist\"><span class=\"material-symbols-rounded starrate\">star<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!--usedproducts-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simulations and rolling rock tests conducted by Ministry of Alberta resulted in a series of design parameters that required the structure must be 5.32<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9358,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","stories-category":[],"stories-tag":[],"class_list":["post-221887","stories","type-stories","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"products":[221294],"applications":[218719,218719],"solutions":[217979],"sectors":[218642]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.0 (Yoast SEO v27.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>CROWSNEST PASS ROCKFALL EMBANKMENT - Maccaferri Canada<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Explore our Success Stories: CROWSNEST PASS ROCKFALL EMBANKMENT.
