<p>A reinforced composite matting is disclosed, to provide a foundation for the development of vegetation to stabilize the channel surface, as a cost effective and environmentally friendly alternative to rip rap or concrete channel lining. The reinforced composite matting is formed of a bottom netting, a three dimensional or cuspated netting having ridges and troughs extending across the width of the three dimensional or cuspated netting, with the troughs substantially adjacent to the bottom netting, and a top netting substantially adjacent to the ridges of the three dimensional or cuspated netting. A fiber matrix, preferably of strands of coconut fibers is disbursed between the bottom netting and the three dimensional or cuspated netting, and the bottom netting, fiber matrix, three dimensional or cuspated netting and top netting are secured together, preferably with thread, to form the reinforced composite matting of this invention.</p> |
