Cellular confinement systems

摘要

A cellular confinement system for soil, sand or other filler material comprises a number of sub-assemblies each made up of a plurality of interconnected open cells of fabric material. The sub-assemblies are stackable one on top of the other to provide a structure having at least one generally vertical side or end wall. Each sub-assembly comprises a skirt portion which is arranged to overlap between vertically juxtaposed sub-assemblies in use. The skirt portion substantially prevents or minimizes the escape of finer aggregate material from between the stacked sub-assemblies.

主权项

1. A sub-assembly for a cellular confinement system for soil, sand or other filler material, the sub-assembly formed of a plurality of interconnected open cells of fabric material, wherein at least some of said interconnected open cells comprise a skirt portion extending from one or more respective walls of the cells no further than a cell wall of a vertically juxtaposed sub-assembly, said skirt portion being integral with the one or more respective walls and forming a skirting strip around an outer perimeter of the sub-assembly.
