PRESTO GEOSYSTEMS

IECA Booth #1001

Presto’s GEOWEB 3D soil-confinement system offers flexible solutions for challenging soil-stabilization problems. The 3D system strengthens and transforms fill material, improving performance in a variety of applications. For controlling erosion, the GEOWEB system’s 3D cellular structure stabilizes the upper soil layer on slopes to resist sliding and prevent surface runoff erosion. In channel designs, the system controls stormwater and replaces expensive riprap and reinforced concrete with vegetation and poured-in-place concrete. Vegetated gravity and reinforced GEOWEB retaining walls are designed for natural aesthetics and to meet green initiatives. Using the GEOWEB system to build roads with onsite, low-quality fill reduces cost and installation time.

Presto offers free project evaluations, fast and easy specification tools and engineering consultation.

Advanced Drainage Systems

Advanced Drainage Systems Inc. (ADS) provides a wide variety of geosynthetics to meet drainage, separation, stabilization and soil-reinforcement needs. Woven and nonwoven fabrics prevent ruts in unpaved roads and animal loading areas. They also stabilize the ground under waste ponds and pits, and help keep silt and fine soil out of the collector pipe.

Geogrids not only enhance pavement life and stabilize soft soils, they also can save money due to reduced aggregate thickness, sub-grade material thickness and undercuts. The ADS erosion control family of stormwater management products improves water quality by promoting vegetation and providing erosion protection in channels and on slopes.

All geosynthetics are strong, durable, chemically inert, environmentally compatible, and are virtually unaffected by the effects of ground conditions, weather and aging. To learn more about ADS Geosynthetics, visit www.ads-pipe.com.
