Brief introduction of grass planting slope protection technology in geocell:

Geocell grass planting and slope protection technology refers to a slope protection technology that fills a geocell that is unfolded and fixed on the slope with planting soil, and then hangs a three-dimensional vegetation net on it to evenly spray grass seeds for greening. The geocell is used to provide a stable and good living environment for the growth of lawn plants. This method can make the side slope of the barren land fully green, and the geocell with holes can also increase the drainage performance of the slope surface, and has the advantages of convenient construction, light material, abrasion resistance, stable chemical performance, photooxidation resistance, acid and alkali resistance , Good adjustability, suitable for different soils and slopes, high survival rate of spraying greening, smooth and beautiful slopes, and good stability of slope protection. It is often used for slope greening protection.

The advantages of grass-planting slope protection in geocells:

 a. Ecological and beautiful: Water-permeable and moisture-retaining soil is better, which is conducive to vegetation growth; more than 98% of the open area has almost no engineering traces; the flexible structure adapts to and retains the natural topography to the greatest extent. Form effective slope protection and effective restraint structures for topsoil, vegetation, and particulate materials such as sand, gravel, and larger rocks or stones. Compared with ordinary slopes, the slopes are allowed to be steeper (slope ≤63°) to reduce the occupation of valuable land space.

b. Energy saving and environmental protection: low-quality or local materials can be used as fillers, less concrete. The geocell filled with concrete can form a flexible concrete pad with built-in expansion joints. For steep slopes, or slopes that have geomembrane or hard soil/rock to prevent brazing, or slopes and embankments that cannot be brazed by loose gravel sand, the top of the slope can be anchored through the entire reinforced belt to provide additional stability.

c. The geocell, upper and lower layers of soil, non-woven geotextile, etc. are combined into a whole multi-layer protective structure through the root system of vegetation. To solve the problem of surface soil stability and slope protection, the geocell slope stability and protection system can isolate, strengthen and constrain the soil and filler above the slope, thereby controlling the downward movement and slippage of the slope caused by hydraulic and gravity.

d. The flexible structure adapts to the settlement and deformation of the foundation, and the top anchored geocell slope protection is suitable for long-term immersion and root erosion conditions.

e. The geocell land retaining system solves the problem of soil stability on steep slopes. When the geocell system is stacked in layers, it can form an economical retaining wall that meets all the specific structural requirements of the project. The system is flexible in structure and gives people an aesthetic enjoyment through a completely vegetation wall. The outer geogrid cell exposes the horizontal terrace formed by the filling soil, which enables the vegetation to grow vigorously. The system can capture rainwater and control groundwater evaporation, creating a more natural environment for vegetation.

 f.  Even in a soft soil environment, it can resist all loads generated by the mass and internal friction of the filler and maintain structural stability. When the foundation soil can be compressed or when construction is in difficult-to-access locations, it can adapt to site challenges. Reduce the occupation of valuable land space, and the slope stability is better.
