Stakes

Staking the geocell to a slope is the most common anchoring method used if there is no geomembrane present and if the soil has adequate strength to retain the stakes. Steel reinforcing bars bent into a “candy cane shape called J-hooks are the preferred type of stake.

General Rule: the length of the stake should be three times the cell height.


	*NOTE: If the surface of the slope is covered with vegetation that will be mowed, anchoring methods other than J-hooks should be considered.*
