 | | TENSARTECH AESTHETIC RETAINING WALL SOLUTIONS ENHANCE THE ENVIRONMENT | | | Tensar International | | 12/02/2008 | | | Where earth retaining structures are specified for embankments, bridge abutments and slopes on infrastructure, urban and landscape schemes, Tensar International’s Tensartech Systems provide a totally integrated solution with a wide choice of aesthetic masonry block finishes, backed by reliable support services and new software.
The attractive finished appearance can be specified to meet local planning requirements, and Tensartech TW1 and TW3 Wall Systems offer cost savings up to 50%, with considerable savings in construction time, over conventional reinforced concrete retaining methods. Tensartech solutions are highly durable, with upto a 120 year design life and BBA certification and are now even easier to specify and introduce into a project, by utilising Tensar’s model specifications.
New Tensartech TW1 and TW3 Wall Systems brochures introduce the elements of the Tensartech solutions and emphasise their many advantages in specification, installation and finished appearance.
The featured benefits include the environmentally friendly use of site won fill material instead of expensive imported backfill for reducing impact of the construction. There is a choice of 12 different colours as well as the possible combination with Tensartech Slopes with vegetated finishes. The dry-bedded construction is simple and rapid and the wall system components demonstrate proven reliability and quality. Use of space is optimal and face angles can be achieved up to 90°, with simple to form convex or concave alignments.
In addition, the Tensartech solutions comprise the total design package from the Tensar Technical Department using Tensar’s newly updated TensarSoil software, delivery of all geogrid, connectors and concrete block components to site and on-site support from Tensar’s Tensartech installation consultant. | |
