Geo bags, also known as erosion control bags, are made up of polypropylene, polyethylene or polyester and are designed to be filled with soil for being installed near marine and hydraulic structures. Apart from being available in various sizes, one can easily customise these bags in different sizes as per the clients’ requirements.
Their economic viability makes them ideal for protecting hydraulic structures and shores of different water bodies such as riverbanks, beaches, offshore breakwaters, etc.
Erosion control bags also prove to be an effective alternative to conventional marine protection techniques, which are expensive and damage the environment.
This blog will help you understand why Erosion control bags are an ideal solution to aid hydraulic structures. These bags are fabricated by engineered woven polypropylene fabric having a porous structure. During and after the filling process, the water disperses through the porous fabric . At the same time, the sand materials can be retained within the jumbo bags, thereby becoming the main composition of the structures.
Erosion control bags play a crucial role in supporting hydraulic structures due to various reasons. These Geo Bags offer a robust, sturdy and sustainable resistance from the flow of water. Providing resistance proves to be the critical element in building these structures on and by the water bodies and preventing the waterbody from flooding the pathways of the said structures. Geo bags also offer additional strength, security and protection to the bases of the docks where the water current runs high. Onsite erosion is a primary concern for construction sites as any offsite damage can largely contribute to permanent ecological damage.
The bags are cost-effective and more natural-looking than concrete structures and offer superior resistance to abrasion, oxidation, and UV rays. Their long-term efficiency and flexibility of design make these bags an ideal choice for protecting hydraulic structures.
