Terre Arm\u00e9e designs and supplies materials for the construction of groynes and breakwaters.<\/h2>\n

The need to build groynes and breakwaters is on the rise. For offshore and shoreline stakeholders, these necessary structures protect not only maritime assets and ship-to-shore infrastructure, but also protect and preserve natural shorelines and coastal development that drive local and global economies.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Solutions designed and supplied by Terre Arm\u00e9e are developed to ensure offshore and coastline erosion control<\/a>, harbor sustainability and landform and infrastructure preservation. For coastal protection, groynes and breakwaters serve different but complementary purposes as far as littoral transport is concerned.<\/p>\n

The customized engineered TerraDyke™<\/a> solution developed by Terre Arm\u00e9e is particularly well adapted to their construction. This state-of-the-art technique is based on the use of geotextile tubes which constitute the core of the structures. It is a soft solution offering the advantages of geosynthetic materials and locally available fill materials.<\/p>\n

TechRevetment™ formed concrete mattresses<\/a> are an ideal solution for the primary armor layer and the antiscour aprons which can be complemented by anchor tubes. Our TerraTextile™ NW nonwoven geotextiles<\/a> are essential components to cope with filtration and separation issues.<\/p>\n

When basal reinforcement<\/a> is necessary due to the nature of the foundation soil of the structures, ArmaLynk\u00ae and ArmaGrid\u00ae<\/a> geogrids will provide the right answer.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Reinforced Earth\u00ae<\/h3>\n

Our flagship technique, Reinforced Earth\u00ae, is based on the principle of the friction between soil and reinforcements creating a permanent and predictable bond. At the origin of all mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls on the market today, we are continuously perfecting this ingenious technique.<\/span>
