Erosion Control

Tiltex B Anti Cracking GCCM is designed for erosion control for embankments, road drainage channels, drop structures, benched drains, spillways, canals and protection of geomembranes.

Adelaide Estuary Project

  • This river estuary in Adelaide is inhabited by Australia’s largest salt water crocodile population.

  • Our client used to truck in 1 load/32 tonnes (313.7kn) of quarry rock, 90 minutes away from site, to cover 17m2/183ft2 of river bank. One truck load of Tiltex B Anti Cracking GCCM can cover 1600m2/17222 (12B) and up to 2300m2/24756ft2 (7B) to control river bank erosion. 1 roll is installed in less than 20 minutes making travel, cartage and installation times reduce by more than half.

Spillway Mining Project 

  • Our Mining client in Queensland specified and installed Tiltex B Anti Cracking GCCM to replace rock pitching.

Railway Infrastructure Projects

  • Drainage Control Maintenance

  • Tiltex B Anti Cracking GCCM was recently installed for drainage control between live rail tracks with Government Rail Authority.

  • Due to the time limit for the railway to be closed whilst track maintenance took place, Tiltex B Anti Cracking GCCM was the perfect choice for a fast installation and for it’s durability for government infrastructure projects.

    Metro Rail for Laing O’Rourke

    Tiltex 12B Anti Cracking GCCM was specified for Government Rail Authority and replaced 100mm concrete & shotcrete in a rail corridor. Nearly 2Km/1.24miles of drains were installed.

  • 100m2/1076ft2 of Tiltex 12B can be installed every 20 minutes which was significantly faster than the traditional erosion control methods used by rail of shotcrete & concrete due it’s 5 metre wide rolls and no screw requirements with installation.

  • Due to it’s time, material and transportation savings, Tiltex B was a cost effective erosion control solution for Government Rail as there was less rail storage to install the material than traditional methods previously used.

  • Tiltex Sandmat can be incorporated beneath Tiltex B as a drainage and cushioning geocomposite material.
