When placing soil onto surfaces with a low friction angle, there is a risk that the soil will slump from the slope. This situation is surprisingly common and is encountered when capping landfills, on the banks of reservoirs, lakes, dams and elsewhere.<\/p>


<\/p>

When soil veneer support may be required<\/p>


<\/p>

In these solutions, it is likely that a geosynthetic membrane liner (MacLine\u00ae, MacLine\u00ae GCL) may have already been used in the works.<\/p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Topsoil, placed on the liner to facilitate re-vegetation, may slump from the low-friction surface and requires veneer support. <\/p>

How Maccaferri products combat this problem. MacMat\u00ae and the reinforced mat, MacMat\u00ae R, are 3D geomats, of varying thickness, placed onto the low friction surface to provide a grip layer for the soil. MacMat\u00ae R is available in high tensile strengths to provide soil support on long slopes where there is no intermediate support. <\/p>

We use specific soil veneer design software and our expertise to provide client support on the thickness and type of mat required.<\/p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>
