Housing developer Barratt Homes started a project in Bonhill  in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. The site had a series of   areas with uneven ground that needed retaining and   stabilising in order to build new homes successfully and the   use of retaining walls to terrace the different areas.  <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Maccaferri was approached by Barratt Homes to come up  with a suitable solution for the posed site problems. It was   agreed that there needed to be a series of retaining walls. <\/p>\n

One large wall and two smaller mass gravity walls would   terrace the area around the houses. <\/p>\n

Wall one would see a Terramesh\u00ae System which was 250m   in length with a face area of 1082m2. Maccaferri\u2019s   Terramesh\u00ae System is a modular system used to create a   rock-faced reinforced soil wall, it is globally used   successfully. We use our primary geogrids for reinforcement   within the structure at different levels, ParaGrid is laid in   between layers providing high-strength reinforcement.   Which can support extreme loads. The units are double   twisted wire mesh which is formed into a cage and then   filled\u2014 normally with locally sourced rocks. The backfill for   this structure was site won fill. <\/p>\n

The two lower-height gabion walls were a total length of   144m with a volume of 430 m3. <\/p>\n

Our systems are simple and rapid to install, we offer client[1]specific solutions. We are unlike \u2018mono-product\u2019 companies   in the fact that we offer plenty of types, we offer a solution   which is optimised to your needs.  <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
