Benefits of the Terra Lock Gripple Anchors:
Gripple anchor systems provide a labour saving method of geotechnical engineering for erosion control, soil retention & slope reinforcement.
Slows Flows - The use of vegetation in the Terra-Lock® System can help control hydraulic flows, minimising scour and damage to other parts of the system
Resilient - Reinforcing elements of the solution alongside the promotion of vegetation means the Terra-Lock® System is essentially 'self-healing', delivering longevity to the install
Sediment Control - Intimate contact with substrates retains soil particles, minimising erosion and downstream sedimentation
Durable - Manufactured using corrosion resistant materials to ensure longevity
Steepened Slopes - Allows slopes and embankments to be sharply angled, reducing groundworks and maximising use of space
Lightweight - Easy to handle on site and adds minimal excess loads to the structure; minimises settlement and subsidence, especially in poor soils
Increased factor of safety - The installation depth of anchors is calculated based on engineering principles to guarantee the System locks into structurally sound soil
Failure Prevention - The system actively holds the surface, locking it deep into the structures while catching and retaining surface failures
