HDPE Geocell 150mm 445mm Welding Interval for Canal Bank Erosion Protection

HDPE Geocell 150mm 445mm Welding Interval for Canal Bank Erosion Protection

Canal banks and drainage slopes may require additional surface protection where exposed soil is vulnerable to runoff and local erosion. GeoMax GM150-445 is a welded HDPE geocell intended for selected bank stabilization and soil-retention applications.

Technical Information

Surface Protection Applications

GM150-445 may be considered for irrigation channel banks, drainage corridors, landscaped waterway slopes and earthwork areas requiring cellular soil confinement.

The 150mm depth accommodates a substantial layer of suitable filling material. The 445mm weld interval provides a cell configuration that can be evaluated according to slope geometry and project requirements.

Important Design Considerations

For canal bank applications, geocell selection should consider slope inclination, runoff velocity, water exposure, anchoring requirements and the possibility of erosion beneath the reinforcement layer.

The cellular structure helps retain infill but does not replace hydraulic engineering or appropriate drainage design. Additional erosion-control measures may be necessary depending on site conditions.

Installation and Supply

The HDPE panels are supplied in folded form. At the installation site, sections are expanded and anchored according to the approved layout before the selected soil or aggregate is introduced.

GM150-445 offers a conventional welded geocell option for civil engineering buyers working on waterway-adjacent ground protection projects.
