Reinforced Soil Slope Structures (RSSS)

The term ‘Geogrid Reinforced Slope’ refers to a composite material which combines the strength of two composite materials fill soil and reinforcing geosynthetic a combination which is synergistically improved. The geotechnical properties of the fill soil (compressive strength and shear strength) are improved by being combined with Geosynthetics–polymer structures with a very high tensile strength making it possible to construct and stabilize slopes and embankments with very steep inclines and small sections, thereby saving space and excavation material.

A reinforced slope with a grassed face is a valid solution to reinforced concrete, especially where the work are of large scale that have a real environmental impact.
