Devices, systems and methods for controlling erosion

摘要

At least one exemplary device includes a tubular mesh enclosure formed from a mesh material having a nominal opening size of less than 0.5 inches, a ratio of a length of the mesh enclosure to a diameter of the mesh enclosure greater than 40, having an opposing pair of ends, at least one of the ends sealed, the enclosure surrounding a filling.

主权项

1. A method for pneumatically forming an erosion control device comprising:
closing a distal end of a mesh tube formed from a mesh material having a opening size of between approximately 0.125 inches and approximately 0.5 inches, a ratio of a length of the mesh tube to a diameter of the mesh tube greater than 40, an external surface of said mesh tube formed by said mesh material; inserting a pneumatic blower hose into an open proximate end of the mesh tube; pneumatically discharging a filling from the pneumatic blower hose into the mesh tube; withdrawing the pneumatic blower hose from the mesh tube; and closing the open proximate end of the mesh tube.
