This is an example of how a reinforced berm can be created and vegetated in the construction of flood defenses. This structure is capable of being over-topped by floodwaters without eroding into a breach and is significantly less expensive than traditional levees.
Units are lightweight, have a long-life span when buried, and do not require specialized equipment to construct apart from earth moving machinery.
Common users of this structure would include home owners associations, municipal utility and wastewater facilities, irrigation districts, and DOT organizations.
These units come in a variety of widths and can be laid out side by side, and stacked.
Defencell units can be vertically stacked during times of flooding. Therefore, additional units can be stacked if floodwaters continue to rise. This product has been tested and approved by the USACE for flood defense operations and can be constructed by one person as required.
One of the best features of this product is the fact there is no wire or foreign components apart from the durable, non-woven geotextile it is comprised of. This is an environmentally inert product making it an excellent product for coastal applications as there are no poke hazards, harmful dies, or foreign chemicals which can leech into the surrounding environment.
Whether you are reinforcing a coastal berm, stabilizing a sand dune, or simply trying to stop erosion and give vegetation a chance to grow, Defencell(R) provides the versatility to do this.
This product is also an excellent alternative to sandbags when restrictions only allow sandbag applications.
The modular design of Defencell(R) provides strength in retaining soils and can be installed over wide stretches of river bank or problem areas suffering from erosion.
This product can be used for a variety of pond applications including above ground containment, settlement ponds, retention ponds, and similar applications.
