Sierra® Slope Soil Retention System
- Reliable solution routinely specified by government agencies, developers, engineers, and architects for a variety of applications
- Eliminate costly concrete facing elements in favor of less costly, more aesthetically pleasing green elements
- Enhance property values and preserve the natural beauty of sites
An economic and more aesthetic alternative to conventional concrete retaining walls, the Sierra® Slope system allows for a smaller footprint as compared to conventional fill slopes. This strategy maximizes developable land, creates more usable land in undeveloped areas, and enhances property values. In addition, the Sierra soil retention system significantly reduces material and installation costs by eliminating many limitations imposed by soil conditions, minimizing fill requirements, and allowing the use of on-site fills. The cost advantages, coupled with its natural aesthetic appeal, provide a reliable solution routinely specified by government agencies, developers, engineers, and architects for a variety of applications.
The Sierra Slope soil retention system is comprised of:
- Tensar uniaxial (UX) geogrids
- Tensar UV-stabilized BX geogrids
- Site-specific facing system
- Turf reinforcement mats (TRMs)
- Engineering and site assistance
