The Geoproducts® retaining wall system is easy to install by a two to four man crew.  The Geoproducts® panels are shipped in collapsed form for ease of handling.

Prepare the site by removing all vegetative cover, debris and any unacceptable soils from the area where the Geoproducts® cellular confinement system is to be placed. Replace any removed soils with acceptable materials and complete all earthwork.  The base material shall be compacted to a minimum 95% Standard Proctor density.

The panels should be held open by a prefabricated stretcher frame to the specific panel dimensions. Once the panel is filled the stretcher frame can be removed. If there are various different fills being used a geotextile is to be placed between the foundation and the bottom panel or between the panels as per design specifications. Installation of the geotextile should be in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.  Adjoining Geoproducts® sections must be level and flush with each other. Overlap the sides of the Geoproducts® sections and butt the ends together. Secure adjoining sections to each other using a pneumatic stapler (3 staples for 8 inch deep cell and 2 staples for 6 inch deep cell) or other means as required by the job specification.

When the Geoproducts® has been properly laid in place, the system should be in filled using the materials specified in the job specifications.  The panels should be overfilled approximately 1 inch above the top of the cell wall and then compacted to a minimum 95% Standard Proctor density. Any excess material should be scraped off so as to have the fill material flush with the top of the cell wall.  This insures an even surface for the placement of the next layer.

As the panels are stacked on top of each other they might need to be set back as per the engineers specification.
