STRUCTURALLY ENHANCED GEOTEXTILE SEDIMENT-CONTROL FENCES

摘要

Sediment-control fences that are structurally enhanced to prevent failure due to hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces are disclosed. The sediment-control fences comprise a permeable geotextile material and reinforcing straps located at controlled heights. The reinforcing straps provide added strength and stiffness at key structural locations along the height of the sediment-control fence.
