Avalanche Protection Reinforced Soil Wall "Geo Snow Wall"
Avalanche protection reinforced earth wall "Geo Snow Wall"
Excellent avalanche protection with reinforced earth walls that have superior shock absorption performance.
"Geo Snow Wall" is a reinforced soil wall designed to absorb avalanches by installing reinforced soil along roadsides. It can also be applied as a guiding retaining wall to direct avalanches along their path. Since the embankment is made of fill material, it has a flexible structure that can adapt to unexpected ground subsidence. Even when subjected to the impact force of an avalanche, there is no eccentric force acting on the installation ground, which means that large-scale foundation work or ground improvement is mostly unnecessary even in sites with poor ground conditions. ■ Reinforced soil wall efficiently absorbs avalanche impact ■ Soil structure with minimal impact on the supporting ground ■ Blends well with the landscape, creating no sense of pressure Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism New Technology Information System (NETIS) Registration Number: HR-990009-V *Registration period has ended As the 10-year registration period has elapsed, the listing on NETIS has ended. However, the registration number continues to exist. It is also a highly reliable construction method selected as a quasi-recommended technology in the fiscal year 2016 NETIS. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

basic information
Geo Snow Wall uses a reinforced soil wall with shock-resistant geogrid as its resistance body. It absorbs the impact of avalanches with a reinforced concrete impact plate, evenly distributing the resistance body to absorb the shock. Fences to prevent avalanche splashes are selected and used based on the planned location. *For inquiries or questions regarding products and technologies, please feel free to contact us.*

"Efficiently Absorbing Avalanche Impact Forces with Reinforced Soil Walls" Geo Snow Wall uses reinforced soil walls with shock-resistant geogrids as the resisting body. It absorbs the impact of avalanches by intercepting them with a reinforced concrete impact plate, evenly distributing the forces across the resisting body. Fences to prevent avalanche splashes are selected and used based on the planned location.

"Earth structures with minimal impact on the supporting ground" Since the embankment is made of fill, it has a flexible structure that can accommodate unexpected ground subsidence. Even when the impact force of an avalanche is applied, there is no eccentric force acting on the foundation ground, so large-scale foundation work or ground improvement is mostly unnecessary even in sites with poor ground conditions.

"Blending with the landscape without feeling oppressive" By greening the walls with vegetation, it harmonizes with the surrounding landscape. Even when vegetation is not possible, alternatives like artificial greening can be tailored to meet needs.
