Development Report on the Alternative Method for Kagomatto: "River Web Method"
ASAHI KASEI ADVANCE CORPORATION 環境資材事業部
The alternative method to the Kagomatto construction method, "River Web Method," has been completed. It enables labor-saving and shortening of construction periods. ● Lightweight and Compact Geo Web is lightweight and compact, making storage and transportation easy. ● Easy Construction and Shortened Construction Period The construction method involves repeated tasks of unfolding, filling, and installing cover materials, allowing for a reduction in construction time. Compared to conventional methods, it can be constructed at a speed 4 to 6 times faster, contributing to a shortened construction period. ● Flexible Structure The material is a honeycomb structure made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which excels in durability and flexibility. Additionally, Geo Web can be easily cut to the required dimensions on-site, allowing for construction that fits the site shape. ● Suitable for Riverbank Protection When using a cover type, the cover material and Geo Web are integrated with connecting materials, making it adaptable to maximum flow rates of approximately 5 m/s. (Note: The applicable flow rate may vary depending on design conditions. Please consult us during the design phase.) For more details, please refer to the URL below.
