The access road of a new retail center has been planned in Mechelen, Belgium, to let customers easily drive to the new shopping mall. Initially, the retaining wall for the ramp leading to the bridge abutment had been planned as a concrete L-retaining wall, but, thanks to the technical support of Maccaferri, the design has been changed in favour of 530 sqm MacRes System with 12. 000 lm of ParaWeb reinforcement. Due to the bad foundation soil characteristics, the contractor asked Maccaferri´s support also for the calculation and delivery of 1. 100 sqm of ParaLink 950 as basal reinforcement over piles. Smooth standard panels have been chosen.

Ithmaar Development Company is developing the reclaimed island of Dilmunia on the north-eastern coast of the island of Muharraq, Kingdom of Bahrain. The development project includes the construction of a nearly 1. 5 km leisure canal (Dilmunia Grand Canal), which will be the central attraction of the island's architectural design, including water activities, fountains, cascades, and waterfalls. Dilmunia canal is elevated few meters above the surrounding ground level, and any potential leaks may become visible and are highly undesirable. Therefore, the project foresees to waterproof the canal structure with various geosynthetic products, including several complementary watertight and drainage elements either installed inside and outside the peripheral walls.

Expo 2023 is an International Horticultural Expo to be hosted by Doha, Qatar, for a period of 6 months between 2023 and 2024. Spanning across 1. 7 million square meters, the event takes place in the scenic ‘Al Bidda’ park in Doha. The ‘Expo House’ building is planned as a key attraction within the ‘Al Bidda’ park as part of this exposition. The theme of EXPO 2023 is “Green Desert, Better Environment”, with an aim to encourage, inspire, and educate people about cutting-edge methods to lessen desertification, and this aim is clearly reflected in the design of the Expo House building. The Expo House is designed in the shape of a semicircle, with a vast open space in front and a fountain as a centerpiece. The benches along the sides of the pavilion form a natural amphitheater, offering stunning views and a perfect spot for the expo’s events and gatherings. One of the challenges was to adopt the right solution that performs the functions of soil retention, stabilization, plantation, and smart irrigation needs of the project.
