TerraDyke\u2122 solutions are primarily developed for protective structures, hydraulic works and dewatering applications.<\/h2>\n

The combined forces of water and water borne debris require special attention while designing structures in coastal areas and riverine environments. TerraDyke\u2122 is an engineered state-of-the-art technique, customized to fit to each project requirements, that combines the advantages of geosynthetic materials and locally available fill materials. Essential components are geotextile tubes, non-woven geotextiles for filtration, anti-scour apron, anchor tube and site specific protective layers adapted to the local environment.<\/p>\n

Geotextile tubes in which hydraulic fill or dredged spoil is pumped constitute the core of the TerraDyke\u2122 technology. They are designed to reach the required geometry after consolidation of the filling materials and to provide strength and stability to the structures. TerraDyke\u2122 structure aprons and anti-scour extensions with their anchor tubes provide the necessary protection against scouring caused by underwater currents.<\/p>\n

As for other hydraulic engineering solution for which demanding filtering properties are required, performing non-woven geotextiles are key components of the TerraDyke\u2122 solutions.<\/p>\n

Depending on the aggressivity of the environment and on the exposure of the structures, protective layers will range from rolled erosion control products in mild conditions on the land side to hard revetments and rip-rap on the water side. Waterproofing barriers can also be included in TerraDyke\u2122 structures.<\/p>\n
