Rail Formation - Maintenance

PROTECTION OF THE RAIL CORRIDOR

The need to limit direction changes often means that rail corridors are cut through areas with unstable slopes and higher risk of rockfall and slope failures. Geofabrics has extensive experience in

A carefully chosen Geogrid or Geoweb can be used to mechanically confine the aggregate that is used to construct the road and prevent it moving laterally under traffic loads. This results in a surface that is more resistant to rutting and pot holes, requiring less maintenance, reduced dust generation and economic construction with less depth of aggregate will limit the damaging effects of water

EROSION PROTECTION, DRAINAGE AND REHABILITATION

There are a range of Geosynthetic Solutions that can be laid on existing soils to enable thin pavements to carry significant loads. This allows rapid road construction for drilling rig access, low impact traffic roads and temporary access roads. The key aim here is to introduce a Geosynthetic solution that does not require extensive excavation or movement of road building materials, and provides significantly less environmental impacts whilst achieving the required trafficable performance.
