Textile Mat
Temporary woven geotextile liner designed for backfilling with concrete.
Colchacreto Articulado
Colchacreto Articulado is a textile form designed to be filled with hydraulic mortar in order to obtain predetermined forms to be used in protection works or coatings against erosion.. It is composed of two layers of geotextile interwoven at its lateral edges and in intermediate zones distributed in such a way that when filled, a system of articulated blocks is obtained that remain interconnected through the layers of geotextile and by means of longitudinal and transversal internal tendons. It has a high resistance in its fibers, which allows an adequate performance under concrete pouring pressures and an adequate pore opening size to filter excess water from the mix. It is designed to form hydraulic lining structures where the phenomenon of scour or settlements in the supporting soil is foreseen.
