All-purpose soil reinforcement system with Geospan MOB modular facing blocks
Geospan blocks are made of heavy-weight concrete to vibrocompression technology. The block reliability and durability are ensured through the use of concrete possessing the compression strength of at least B25, and the frost resistance of at least F200.
MOB use allows:
- 20% to 65% cost reduction as compared to monolithic retaining walls;
- 35% shorter erection time as compared to reinforced concrete structures;
- making retaining structures on collapsing and unstable soils, as well as in earthquake zones, thanks to dry laying;
- hiring personnel of any skills to install Geospan soil reinforcement systems.
