geosindex - ASTM Erosion Control

Erosion control is a vast subject. The problems range from small sediment migration in residential lots to severe soil ruts and scours that undermine embankments and dams. Because of this, the geosynthetic materials specified to solve these problems are just as diverse. They include a variety of permanent rolled erosion control products (RECPs), temporary RECPs, geotextiles for soil separation and retention, geotextile tubes (such as for beach restoration), and geocells and geogrids for locking aggregate, rock and soils in place. It is also good to check relevant data on geotextiles, geotextile tubes, geocells, and geogrids for your erosion control applications. These materials may be more useful in larger confinement situations and scenarios in which the subgrade stability is off concern and vital to surface stability.

From the Erosion Control sub-menu, select the geosynthetic material needed for your EC project and click to view a table of several manufacturer's material specifications.
