Presto announces ballast research performance results
Presto Geosystems, manufacturer of the HDPE GEOWEB base stabilization system, released results from track research performed to quantify the reinforcement benefit of GEOWEB-confined ballast as compared to unconfined ballast.
Geocellular System Repairs Eroded Highway Embankment
Runoff from an adjacent Maryland highway caused severe erosion of a 2H:1V embankment and wetlands at the bottom prevented flattening the slope. The GEOWEB®...
Vegetated Geocellular Channels Shore Up Embankments, Mitigate Flooding Concerns
Concrete or gabion channels are commonly designed for stormwater conveyances with concentrated flows—especially in areas prone to heavy rainfall events and flooding. Hardscape channels,...
