| Soil Erosion Protection Through Geomats/Jute Geogrids |
Soil Erosion is a natural process, which is caused by many elements including wind, water, ice, etc. It is a process that is caused due to the transportation of soil and rock particle, making the surface shallow.
Leveraging on our association with some of the leading Geosynthetic manufacturers, we offer highly practiced Soil Erosion Protection Services to our clients. We make use of a qualitative range of Geosynthetics namely – Geomats and Jute Geogrids that ensures optimum durability of the ground surface by enhancing soil and rock particle bonding.
We procure an impeccable quality of geosynthetic products including Geomats TENAX MULTIMAT, Reinforced Geomats TENAX MULTIMAT R and Geocells TENAX TENWEB and which are specifically designed for soil erosion control. |
|
| TENAX MULTIMAT 100 |
| We recommend TENAX MULTIMAT 100 for erosion control, which is manufactured with three dimensional Geomats. Since it has three layers (one folded and two flat) of Geogrids, it has been proved to be highly efficient for stopping the transportation of soil and rock particles. The layers of Tenax Multimat are joined with grass roots that eventually slow down the water flow, which is the main reason for soil erosion. Tenax Multimat can also be used for canal and water ponds up to a long term flow velocity of 4 m/sec. |
|
| Geocells TENAX TENWEB |
| Geocells TENAX TENWEB is another effective product offered by our company to our clients for soil erosion prevention. It is manufactured with HDPE polymer extruded strips, which are connected together. The structure of Tenweb is designed in such a manner that it contains the soil and stops the migration by confinement. Geocells TENAX TENWEB is available in 75 mm, 100mm and 150mm heights. It is widely used in hydraulic applications in lakes and water basins. |

| 2) Paving Fabrics: for Asphalt Reinforcement of Roads both Non-woven Fabrics and Woven Geogrids |
| Utilizing the best Paving Fabrics, We, H.M.B.S Textiles Pvt Ltd offer our clients effectual Asphalt Reinforcement Services, which ensure sturdy road-structures in highly cost effective manner. |
|
| Why Asphalt Reinforcement is necessary? |
| • |
Fatigue Cracking and Rutting Failure are the two types of Pavement Failure Mechanisms that need to be treated with advanced Asphalt Reinforcement techniques. Fatigue Cracking is caused by the high tensile strengths of the layer, while Rutting Failure is caused by several elements such as Permanent shear strains near surface, high temperatures, heavy wheel loads and high traffic volume. |
| |
| • |
Fatigue cracking of asphalt and cement treated materials involves tensile failure at stress or strain levels below the static strength of the material. |
|
| • |
Failure depends on the number of wheel load applications, which can be many millions for major highways. |
| |
| • |
Cracking is a structural failure and the effectiveness of the asphalt layer in distributing wheel loads to protect the lower layers decreases as cracking develops. |
|
| • |
Rutting results in reduced serviceability through pounding of water and constitutes a danger to traffic. |
|
|
| Fatigue Cracking and Rutting Failure need to be treated in order to avoid following problems: |
| • |
Riding discomfort for the users |
|
| • |
Reduction of safety |
|
| • |
Infiltration of water and subsequent reduction of the |
|
| • |
bearing capacity of the subgrade |
|
| • |
Pumping of soil particles through the crack |
|
| • |
Progressive degradation of the road structure in the vicinity of the cracks due to stress concentrations. |
|
|
| Advantages of Asphalt Reinforcement |
| • |
Ensure skid resistance surface |
|
| • |
Ensures high stiffness and crack resistance power |
|
| • |
Make the surface deformation resistant |
|
| • |
Prepare adequate platform to avoid Reflective Cracking |
|
|
| Apart from the above problems, there is one more factor that reduces the life of pavements and it is called Reflective Cracking. Reflective Cracking is caused due to the cracks on the lower surface. We have achieved expertise in dealing with such issues as we have already undertaken several projects to handle Reflective Cracking. Our experts procure the best Geosynthetic products and by utilizing the latest installation methods to offer complete solutions against the problem. Geosynthetics change the appearance of the reflective cracking and add resistance to fatigue cracking that ultimately increases the life of the overlay. |
|
| 3) How Geosynthetics help in ensuring complete solutions for Reflective Cracking? |
| • |
A Geosynthetic interlayer can be placed over the distressed pavement or within the overlay to create an overlay system. |
|
| • |
The Geosynthetic interlayer contributes to the life of the overlay via stress relief and/or reinforcement and by providing a pavement moisture barrier. |
|
| • |
A stress relieving interlayer retards the development of reflective cracks by absorbing the stresses that arise from the damaged pavement. |
|
| • |
It also waterproofs pavements that typically allow 30 to 60 % of precipitation to infiltrate and weaken the road structure. |
|
| • |
Reinforcement occurs when an interlayer is able to contribute significant tensile strength to the overlay system. |
|
| • |
The reinforcement limits the movement of the cracked old pavement under traffic loads and thermal stress by holding the cracks together. |

|
| How Geotextile-Polymer Core Composites help in ensuring effective drainage solutions? |
| Geotextile-Polymer Core Composites is manufactured with rigid plastic sheets, which make it possible to flow large amount of fluid through the structure. To ensure higher efficacy of this structure, which is also called drainage core, different Geotextile filtration and separation tools are installed on both the sides. In the past, it was difficult to deal with drainage problems but with the new and advanced Geotextiles and Geogrids the task has become a simple job. |
|
| 4) Retaining Walls for Road Bridges |
|
To retain walls and road bridges using geosynthetical methodologies have been proved an effective process. Over the last few years, the process has become popular all over the world and being used by several construction companies. We procure quality Geogrids, which is considered to be the best reinforcing element for retaining walls and road bridges. To use geosynthetic engineering in the process of reinforcing walls is also a cost effective process and requires less workforce.

| 5) River Banks Protection |
Making use of highly tensile range of Geotextiles, we offer effective River Bank Protection Services. We use different categories of Geotextiles such as Knitted, Woven, Non-woven, and Composite to stop the erosion on the banks of the rivers, artificial lakes, and sea beaches. Geotextile has got several degradable properties that contribute in effective erosion control on the river banks. According to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Committee D 4439, “Geotextile is a permeable Geosynthetic that comprise textiles.”
We have hired some of the extremely experienced experts, who apply proper Filtration, Drainage, Reinforcement, Waterproofing and Separation Techniques to make the most of the Geotextile Products used for the river bank protection. These experts are also aware of various methods namely- timber piling, timber decking, and alder pole piling, which further, help them in executing the task with efficacy.
Before initiating the job, our experts completely understand the factors responsible for soil or rock erosion at river banks. Depending upon the need, they choose qualitative range of Geotextile Bags and Tubes to be installed at the edges. |
|
| How Geomembranes help in River Bank Protection? |
| American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Committee D 4439 defines Geomembranes as, “A very low permeability synthetic membrane liners or barriers used with any geotechnical engineering related material so as to control fluid migration in a human-made project, structure, or system.” |
| • |
Geomembranes are flexible impermeable sheets produced from polymeric materials, but can also be made from the impregnation of Geotextiles with asphalt or Elastomer sprays. |
|
| • |
Primary function is to act as a barrier to liquids or vapors. |
|
| • |
Each type of Geomembranes material has different characteristics which affect installation procedures, lifespan and performance. For example, PVC Geomembranes are very flexible and as a result, can conform to uneven surfaces without being punctured. |
