Erosion Control Applications

Turkey's Innovative Geotechnical and Infrastructure Engineering Company

Erosion control encompasses applications designed to prevent soil loss due to water, wind, and other environmental factors while maintaining land stability. Protection against issues such as soil slides and sediment transport is vital, especially in sloped terrains, embankments, stream beds, and infrastructure projects.

Atlas Geo implements sustainable, effective, and long-lasting applications in the field of erosion control using modern geotechnical solutions in accordance with international standards.

Geosynthetic materials play a critical role in erosion control. The main systems used are:

Geotextile Fabrics

Function: Provides soil stabilization, surface protection, and filtration.
Areas of Use: On slightly sloped surfaces and over drainage systems.

Geogrid Systems

Function: Increases slope stability by keeping surface soil particles fixed.
Areas of Use: Steep slopes, highway and railway embankments.

Erosion Control Blankets (ECB)

Function: Provides temporary or permanent surface protection. Limits surface runoff while allowing plant growth.
Areas of Use: Slopes, riverbanks, open soil surfaces.

Geocomposites

Function: Offers drainage and mechanical protection functions together.
Areas of Use: Waterways, riverbeds, flood control systems.

Biomats and Biodegradable Products

Function: Provides short-term protection and naturally integrates into the soil.
Areas of Use: Agricultural lands, landscape arrangements, sensitive environmental projects.

Areas requiring erosion control are quite diverse:

Highway and Railway Projects: Slope stabilization and drainage protection.
Stream Rehabilitation and Water Structures: Riverbanks, dam surroundings, canals.
Industrial and Energy Facilities: Mining sites, hydroelectric power plant projects, wind energy plant platforms.
Urban Areas and Landscape Projects: Parks, green spaces, sloped gardens.
Agricultural Areas: Land conservation projects, terracing applications.

Soil Protection and Increased Stability Geosynthetic materials increase the stability of slopes by keeping soil in place and reducing surface runoff.
Support for Natural Processes Promotes the development of vegetation cover, providing long-term natural erosion protection.
Quick and Economical Implementation Lightweight materials allow for rapid installation. Reduces labor and equipment costs.
Environmentally Sensitive Solutions Eco-friendly projects can be developed using biodegradable products. Carbon footprint is minimized.
Long Life and Durability High-quality geosynthetic products are resistant to UV rays, chemicals, and mechanical stresses.
Versatile Usage Possibilities Can be applied in different soil types and under different climate conditions. Can be optimized for specific projects thanks to its modular design.
