Open taludbekledingen: Stabiliteit van zandmatrassen en betonmatrassen

Het onderhavige verslag geeft een literatuuroverzicht en een theoretische beschouwing over de stabiliteit van zand gevulde en beton gevulde matrassen. De aandacht is vrijwel uitsluitend gericht op de golfbelasting en het eventuele oplichten van de matras als gevolg van deze belasting. Het onderzoek heeft geleid tot concrete formules voor het...

Inspection of gabion structures following august 1986 storm

The Manly Hydraulics Laboratory, of of the Public Works department of New South Wales, Australia, on behalf of the Coastal Branch, has carried out an inspection of gabion coastal protection structures in the Sydney area to assess their condition following the August 1986 storm. This report has been made available via Maccaferri Gabions.

Commentaar op "Hydraulic test to develop design criteria for the use of RENO matrasses (Gabions)"

Er zijn proeven uitgevoerd op steenkorven van verschillende dikten. De verhouding dikte van de korf tot de afmeting van de stenen is klein, 1 à 10. - Het rapport hierover is geheel geschreven vanuit een hydraulisch gezichtspunt. Voor stroming in continua leidt dit tot een overschatting van de optredende snelheden en schuifkrachten. Het resultaat...

Hydraulic test to develop design criteria for the use of Reno mattresses

The present study was aimed at evaluating the performance of Maccaferri mattress products when used as river and canal bank and bed revetment. A hydraulic testing program was developed and undertaken to provide experimental data pertaining to the performance of reno mattresses. Test data were utilized to develop reliable design criteria for...

Consideration of risk in hydraulic design of bank protection using Reno matresses and riprap

This report discusses channel stabilization design by erosion protection measures considering risk analysis. Although many different erosion protection measures have been used, this report only considers rip-rap and wire enclosed rock (in mattresses) which are two of the most widely used methods of erosion protection. The purpose of erosion...

Flexible structures in river and stream training works and earth retaining works, using Maccaferri gabions and Reno mattresses
