TerraTrel\u00ae is a lightweight MSE wall system structure using a durable steel wire mesh facing.<\/h2>\n
The compacted backfill behind the wire facing is layered with either High-Adherence (HA) steel reinforcing strips or ladders with a bolted connection to the wire mesh facing. These structurally connected elements are creating a wire mesh retaining wall structure capable of supporting heavy loading while being tolerant to settlement and deformation thus remaining operable for all the same purposes as concrete clad MSE walls. The system provides a cost-effective solution for wall applications where aesthetics is not a critical requirement, precast concrete facing is not necessary, or heavy lifting is not feasible. TerraTrel\u00ae is also ideal for temporary structures used in roadway widening and bridge phasing.<\/p>\n<\/div>

TerraTrel\u00ae wire-faced MSE wall system provides all the design advantages of traditional Reinforced Earth\u00ae MSE wall system at a reduced cost.<\/p>\n
The advantages of TerraTrel\u00ae wire mesh retaining wall are evident in its use of lightweight materials that are easily installed without the use of a crane. These materials do not sacrifice strength, durability, or flexibility to achieve the advantages of Reinforced Earth\u00ae. Adjustable base panels accommodate wall construction on grade without the installation of costly footings.<\/p>\n
Mining, material handling, and remote location applications can now take advantage of TerraTrel\u00ae wire-faced MSE wall system without the cost of precast concrete facing panels. The cost and time advantages are also recognized for staged construction where traffic must be maintained then shifted, or as a replacement to sheeting and shoring.<\/p>\n<\/div>
