RECo’s structures are suited for the construction of MSE walls for ports, harbors, quays, breakwaters and marinas, including watertight marine structures. Their unique abilities to withstand extraordinary stresses enable our structures to support buildings, railroad, heavy transport trucks, traveling cranes and the stresses generated by bollards and other docking loads.\u202f\u202fRECo’s structures have also been used to build supplementary harbor structures such as slipways and channels, either temporary or permanent.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
The Reinforced Earth\u00ae<\/a>\u202fsolution is renowned for secure technical and operational benefits while offering sustainable properties, substantial economic efficiency, and minimal construction duration. This solution is proven to be ideal for industrial, public, private, commercial, and recreational users for the construction of safe waterfronts and breakwaters. The use of\u202fGeoStrap\u00ae geosynthetic soil reinforcement in combination with a polymeric connection, or in some cases using high-adherence steel strip soil reinforcements allows for Reinforced Earth\u00ae structures to be flexible and adapt with ease for exposure to adverse hydraulic conditions.\u202f<\/p>\n Our patented techniques and tailor-made solutions like GeoMega\u00ae<\/a> MSE Retaining Walls are primarily built to resist the combined forces of water and waterborne debris which can be highly destructive during storms, as well as other environmental stresses such as waves and storm driven pack ice. Wall facings of our MSE walls for ports, harbors and costal structures can be designed with integrated functional features such as wave deflectors and eco-friendly surfaces that support bio-habitats.<\/p>\n Our MSE walls for ports, harbors and costal structures can be built with a waterproofing membrane attached to the claddings to create watertight structures.\u00a0<\/p>\n T-Wall\u2122<\/a> precast concrete gravity walls are also excellent fits for the construction of MSE walls for ports, harbors and costal structures.<\/p>\n Ports and harbors are prone to wave currents and turbulent flows.\u202fThese currents and turbulences lead to soil erosion which in the long run may lead to damage to the structure. GeoMega\u00ae<\/a> is a durable solution for these types of instances. Reinforced Earth\u00ae is a high-strength MSE wall specially developed for protective applications.<\/p>\n<\/div> Our GeoMega\u00ae system, based on the use of GeoStrap\u00ae or EcoStrapTM<\/sup> soil reinforcements combined with polymeric connections set in concrete facing panels are perfectly adapted to seawater environments.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Reinforced Earth\u00ae marine structures are designed and built to resist the combined forces of water borne debris, which can be highly destructive to coastal infrastructure during storms, or everyday occurrences, such as waves and the impact of pack ice.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Our Reinforced Earth\u00ae panels combined with appropriate backfill materials ensure adequate drainage, especially if the structure is subject to tides with high amplitudes or storm surges.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Related Products<\/p><\/h2><\/span>Scour and erosion protection<\/h2>\n
