How To Install A Slope Protection Netting?

  Slopes and hills are structures that often cause stability problems such as erosion, landslides, and rockfalls, and, in the worst-case scenario, they can collapse. For these purposes, we can classify them as natural slopes and engineered slopes. 


In the first case, these structures usually cause problems caused by ground damage, natural slope, soil type, diving areas, and local weather conditions. With man-made slopes, these do not usually cause any sliding problems, either in terms of design or in terms of the materials involved. This article discusses the use of a side slope protection net in the prevention of slope erosion. One of the most common problems is caused by erosion, which can be due to several different reasons.


High Tensile Rockfall Mesh

High Tensile Rockfall Mesh 


As a result of water, whether it is precipitation or groundwater. It is vital to always consider water as one of the main elements that can lead to erosion.


Depending on the slope, a slope may be more or less susceptible to erosion.

The soil has a lower absorption capacity than the amount of precipitation it can withstand.

Rutting and stream formation

Soil infiltration rate and porosity

Runoff curves


Seasonal fluctuations. Areas with large variations between dry and wet seasons are more affected by erosion.

Solar radiation intensity. High solar radiation can lead to further erosion.

Wind speed. Higher wind speeds will lead to further slope erosion.

Temperature variation. As described above. As temperature changes expand, we see stronger erosion effects.

 

With this in mind, a comprehensive analysis of geological, geotechnical, environmental, and hydrological conditions needs to be carried out before any construction work is carried out to predict the condition of the slope once built. For this reason, there are product fabrics such as reinforcement mesh that can ensure slope stability.

 

How To Install A Slope Protection Netting? 


The following are the steps required to install the slope protection netting.

 

  • Preparation. Before installing the hillside and slope protection netting, make sure that any existing slopes and gullies are removed and the soil is prepared.

  • How to install. When installing slope protection netting you must start at the highest point of the slope and work your way down to the bottom.


In order to attach the mesh, a 20cm wide and 20cm deep trench must be dug at least 1m from the edge of the slope. Use ground spikes to insert the reinforcement mesh into the trench. Next, you must refill the trench while compacting it to increase its resistance.


When connecting the slope protection netting, make sure that the distance between each ground spike is no more than 1 meter on either side. Once the reinforcement mesh has been installed and fixed to the trench, it can be unfolded at the top of the slope in its downward direction.


  • Material overlap. Make sure you leave an overlap of 10 to 20 cm between the rolls. Similarly, you must also place ground spikes along the joints, no more than 1 m apart on either side. when joining the ends of two separate rolls, make sure you leave an overlap of at least 100 cm and provide further reinforcement by installing additional ground spikes on either side, no more than 50 cm apart.

  • Check. After installing the reinforcing mesh, you must assess the ground spikes installed between the ends of the two separate reels.

  • Vegetation cover. After checking that the spikes are correctly attached, you can continue to cover the slope or hill with substrate or hydroseeding to ensure its complete regeneration

How UHMWPE Sheets Revolutionize Industrial Applications

图片
  Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) sheets are increasingly becoming a cornerstone in various industrial applications due to their exceptional properties. This material, renowned for its superior strength, durability, and versatility, has revolutionized numerous sectors, from manufacturing to medical fields. This article delves into how UHMWPE sheets are transforming industries and why they are favored over traditional materials.   1. Understanding UHMWPE Sheets UHMWPE is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene, characterized by its extremely long molecular chains. These chains, with molecular weights in the range of 3 to 6 million amu, contribute to its outstanding physical properties. UHMWPE sheets exhibit high impact resistance, low friction, and excellent chemical resistance, making them ideal for demanding environments.   2. Enhanced Durability and Wear Resistance One of the standout features of UHMWPE sheets is their unparalleled wear resistance. Industries tha

  To determine which camping chair is best for you, you will have to sift through material types, portability, price and many more. Therefore, we have put together a handy camping chair guide to make the choice a little easier. We go over the portability, weight capacity, materials and price of   camping chairs   to help you decide. HERE'S WHAT YOU SHOULD LOOK FOR WHEN YOU'RE BUYING A NEW CAMPING CHAIR.   1. Materials   First, let's take a look at the materials used in making one camping chair. There is a vast variety of camping chair materials that you can choose from when shopping for a camping chair. But, most current models have aluminum legs and body frame. This is because aluminum has a high strength-to-weight ratio. Plus, aluminum is corrosion resistant so it prevents rust.   As for the seats and armrests, a coated rip-stop nylon fabric is used because of its durability and water resistance capabilities. But some brands use closed-cell foam padding instead for extra

Is Sublimation Paper the Same as Heat Transfer Paper?

图片
In the realm of garment printing and crafting, confusion often arises between sublimation paper and   heat transfer paper . While both are vital tools in the process of transferring designs onto various surfaces, they serve distinct purposes and possess unique characteristics. Understanding the disparities between these two types of paper is crucial for achieving optimal results in your printing endeavors. Sublimation Paper: Unveiling its Essence Sublimation paper  is a specialized medium used primarily in sublimation printing—a technique that involves transferring dye onto materials such as fabrics, ceramics, and metals through a process of sublimation. Sublimation occurs when a solid substance transitions directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. In sublimation printing, heat and pressure are applied to sublimation paper, causing the solid dye particles to sublimate and bond with the surface of the substrate. The key characteristic of sublimation paper is its uniq
