Basal Reinforcement
Straightforward reinforcement and stabilisation of embankment base
The actual embankment construction operations are preceded by preparatory works to the embankment base. HUESKER's Stabilenka reinforcement fabric, a woven geotextile with tensile strengths of up to 2,800 kN/m, ensures the safe accommodation and distribution of vertical embankment loads and lateral spread. The use of Stabilenka as soil reinforcement speeds up operations, shortens waiting times for subsoil consolidation and allows maximisation of the slope inclination during construction.
Benefits
Ensures global and local stability of embankment structure
Fast, single-layer installation of woven geotextile thanks to high tensile strengths
Shorter construction times due to rapid subsoil consolidation
Steep slopes even during construction, resulting in lower base widths and savings on fill material
Accommodation of differential settlement
Also suitable for highly alkaline soils
