RIVER TRAINING

river-training

The river training work is constructed to protect the river bank from meandering and scouring from the water current and training the river along the desired course. The river training work includes the construction of levees, guide bunds and groyne.

River training is an important component in the prevention and mitigation of flash floods and general flood control, as well as in other activities such as ensuring the safe passage of a flood under a bridge.

SKAPS HYDROTEX installed on the slope of the soil retaining structure sustain the load of water flow and protect the slope of leeve, bund, and groyne from the erosion of soil. Generally, SKAPS HYDROTEX AB (articulating block) can be used at the end of the apron of the bund which absorbs the energy of water by articulating action.
