Various Approvals
Concrete : 5000 psi, 6% Air
Entrained, 3/8 Aggregate.
Interlocking Geogrid: Fornit 30-30
Reinforcing Netting: 5 Pick Action
Back.
Underlayment: Organic or Poylester
Weight per sf: 10 lbs
Light duty geogrid backing with a
life expectancy of 36 - 42 months
5000 psi concrete fully embedded into a
high strength polyprolene geogrid,
performance life in excess of 75 years.
SUBGRADE
SUBGRADE
FLOW
FLOW
The pyramid shape allows the flow to drive the block down to the
subgrade, and allows backfilling to further anchor the block.
Roll above was manufactured with
a double net wood curlex TRM
attached to the back of the
Flexamat to encourage vegetation
growth.
4800 square feet of 8’ wide rolls
Rockwood Landfill,
Newport, MI
Before and After of Mowing,
after the removal of the Rip Rap
Flexamat was installed on this site in 2007. This site is
located 12 miles north of Knoxville, off I-75.
Chestnut Ridge Landfill, Waste Management
 Being Installed  4 Years Installed
Geogrid seams for connecting joints
Large-Scale Channel Erosion Tested
(ASTM D 6460)
• Non-vegetated over sandy loam
• 30% Slope
• Achieved 24+ psf (shear) & 19+
ft./sec (velocity)
• Both are “+” because ½ inch
of soil loss was never
achieved. TRI Environmental
Testing facility maxed out it’s
capabilities without Flexamat
allowing any erosion to take
place!
Anchor Trench
Installed by MDOT District 7, last week of May, 2011.
1st time installing Flexamat, completed installation in
half a day.
MDOT engineer was Matthew Dugas, PE.
Flexamat installed before end section
Flexamat was used for a low water crossing. This project was
installed May 2012
USACE Project
There is a spring that is constantly flowing
here. Flexamat enables vehicles to cross this
wet area without getting stuck. This photo
was taken in August 2012.
Flexamat used to armor area where runoff from the pavement
was causing erosion.
District 1 Maintenance Facility
MDOT District 1
Great Vegetation Why ever use concrete ?
Eroded Ditch
Fill was brought in, the area was re-graded,
seeded and covered with straw
