Remote Site
Solutions is the Sub-Saharan Agent for Multicell®.
Multicell®
is an environmentally friendly, simple and cost effective
soil confinement system which can be used for creating
roadways, platforms and soil erosion control in areas
where construction materials and equipment are not readily
available.
Using on site materials and soils,
Multicell® can be
installed to create roadways that can successfully support
abnormal truck loads in sandy, marshland type soil conditions,
and remain completely functional without maintenance
or re-working after traffic or rain.
Multicell®
is guaranteed to be durable for a minimum of 25 years
in natural soils with 4<pH<9 and soil temperatures
of up to 25 deg C.
While seeding and vegetation provide
a cost effective solution on gentle slopes, Multicell®
system provides an economical solution for severe erosion
conditions when compared to a combination of geotextile
and stone layers, gabions and the like.
The cells of Multicell®
system can be filled with soil, sand, pebble, concrete
etc. The infill is protected by the cell thus preventing
its removal by erosion forces. Each cell functions as
a small dam allowing water or wind to pass over the
top without removal of the infill.
If seeded soil is used as the filling
material, mowing can be carried out without any interference
to the cell walls.
If concrete is used, the system
will protect the underlying soil from either wind or
water erosion. When external weight is required for
slope stability, filled Multicell®
will provide it. For example, Multicell® when applied
to stream beds, stream and road embankments will prevent
deterioration by water erosion.
