These erosion control mats truly combine versatility with durability. Weighing in at 6200 pounds, these 8’ x 20’ mats are made to withstand hazards including extreme temperatures, sunlight, and saltwater erosion. The revetment mats are a longer lasting solution to erosion than traditional alternatives such as structural concrete, gabions, and riprap. Our products are purpose built to protect your assets in subsea environments, inland streams and runoff washes, and arid locations where wind erosion is a primary concern. These revetment mats can also be used to reinforce embankments, protect shorelines, and restore wetlands.

Submar installed a system of articulating concrete block revetment mattresses, (ACB’s), Read More. In this case a 24-inch diameter pipeline in Virginia was exposed due to soil degradation in the bed of the channel. I am aware of design using hydraulic stability methods. Pipeline exposure due to wind and water erosion remediation is a key service provided by Submar, Inc. Is anyone aware of design guidance for articulated concrete block revetments, specifically for installation on a slope (i.e. Submar erosion control mats are used to protect onshore pipelines from erosion. civilengineer01 (Civil/Environmental) (OP) 30 Oct 07 18:03. Held together by a series of cables, these flexible structures cover a wide variety of landscapes to ensure the protection of vital pipelines, and the environment that surrounds them.
