B: Installation using crane and spreader bar. 1— Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) BENDWAY WEIRS Description A low wall constructed in a channel or creek and positioned to cause sediment buildup, increase slope stability, and reverse erosion Strengths • Low cost -to -benefit ratio Weaknesses • Must have periodic sufficient flow velocity in channel to transport material • Will probably cause erosion on the opposite creek bank Typical Applications • Erosion control in channel applications Photographs A: Erosion mat, rock riprap, and bendway weir. Note erosion in unprotected creek downstream. B: Sedimentation deposits and vegetation taking hold. 2— Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) CONCRETE LINING Description • Concrete lining is an engineered concrete slab lining along the bottom of the channel and the side slopes rising to a height that sufficiently handles the desired design storm event. This option depends on proper installation and engineering analysis of the flow depths and velocities. This option works best where easement width is limited and aesthetics are not an issue. Strengths • Economical (low cost compared to other bank protection techniques) • Relatively low maintenance (except in the event of collapse) • Most general contractors are familiar with this method and have the ability to install • Highly effective erosion control where flow is contained within the lined surface Weaknesses • Low aesthetic value • Concrete does not have any measurable permeability • Concrete lining has a negative environmental impact • Erosion can occur under the concrete lining and will "bridge" the erosion until catastrophic failure occurs Typical Applications • Concrete inverts where grade control is critical • Where easement width is an issue and flow must be within the easement in a deeper channel Photographs A: Concrete lining in channel. B: Concrete lining in channel. 3 —Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) EROSION MATS Description • Erosion mats come in a variety of weights per square yard and in many combinations of synthetic versus natural reinforcement. Used temporarily to help establish grass on a slope or in the bottom of a swale. The synthetic reinforcement is usually intended to deteriorate within a specified time table. These products must be applied with knowledge of the universal soil loss equation. Strengths • Inexpensive • Low -maintenance after vegetation is established • Easy to install (no special equipment required) Weaknesses • If an edge gets caught in a mower, the mat could be pulled up and cause integrity disarray • Erosion rills can form under the mats • Usually temporary • Irrigation is needed for vegetation to grow • Very limited for contact with high velocities of high -depth flow Typical Applications • Used in lieu of concrete where irrigation is available • Reinforcing side slopes Photographs A: Erosion mats combined with gabion mattresses B: Erosion mats on slopes. 4—Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) FIBER -REINFORCED SOIL Description • Fiber -reinforced soil is similar to fiber -reinforced concrete. These fiberglass fibers are approximately two inches long, come in a bag, and are dumped out on the ground, spread out with a leaf rake, and rototilled in with the soil.They are used to provide or increase shear strength to the soil. This method is used in combination with other materials. It is not recommended for direct contact with flowing water. Strengths • Potential to be economical Weaknesses • Few contractors have experience with this method • Experimental and not frequently used • Should be protected at interface with water Typical Applications • Sites where geotechnical slope stability is required Photographs A: Reservoir bank stabilization. B: Installation of fiber -reinforced soil. 5 —Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) GABION BASKETS AND MATTRESSES Description Gabions are rock or broken -concrete -filled wire baskets. The wire is galvanized or vinyl -coated and twisted (similar to chain link fence, but gabion wire is triple -twisted). The rock is typically six to nine inches and must be hard and angular like rock riprap. Gabions come in intervals of three-foot lengths. Strengths • Flexibility — can tolerate differential settlement or will self -deform or heal erosion under the structure • Durability — supports plant growth, which acts like a coating on the wire mesh and the roots help the stones to bond • Strength — steel wire and hexagonal mesh can withstand forces generated by water and earth masses • Permeability — free -draining, thus minimizing hydraulic pressure • Economical — low cost if material/supplier is local and available • Minimal time to construct • Unlimited shape configurations • Use with concrete tiebacks to reinforce retaining wall Weaknesses • May be a more expensive option without local material/supplier • May require specialized contractors • Damage to the gabion wire caused by large debris may require regular maintenance Typical Applications • Used as a steep side slope stabilizer in deeper channels • Used as retaining walls Photographs A: Outfall bank stabilization. B: Streambank stabilization. C: Gabion baskets and mattresses schematic. 6— Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) �M _ GEOTE%TILE FABRIC/FILTER BLANKET O T I GEO CELLS Description • Geo cells are similar to geo grids. Imagine a honeycomb filled with soil or gravel. These are also used for soil/slope stability and can be planted and vegetated. Strengths • Economical • Can be used in combination with other products (as shown in the photographs below) • Easy to assemble • Can be soil -filled to establish vegetation Weaknesses • Can hold up only for limited velocities Typical Applications • Where geotechnical slope stability is required to develop shear strength Photographs A: Installation. B: Installation. C: Installation with fill. D: Vegetation growing. Note the geo cells are used in conjunction with another material for foundation. Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F• 13) GEO GRIDS Description • Geo grids are synthetic grid (like an orange safety fence), layered in horizontal planes, with gravel or soil compacted between layers. The geo grid provides shear resistance to achieve slope stability. Strengths • Economical • Used to develop stability Weaknesses • Limited value for surface erosion Typical Applications • To develop wall reinforcement for shear strength Photographs A: Geo grid -reinforced segmented retaining wall. B: Geo grid -reinforced segmented retaining wall. C: Geo grid -reinforced wall topping. D: Geo grid -reinforced riprap creek crossing. 4 Alan Plummer As_:ociates: Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F 13! r.• B wk' .7 HMD R I!IQE wA 'c, LJ HDPE LETDOWN CHUTE Description • Imagine a water slide. These chutes have been in landfills to letdown the water from the top of slope to the bottom. The common alternative solution to using letdown chutes is to introduce stormwater piping to capture the water and let it down the steep side slopes. Strengths • Cost-effective alternative to stormwater piping Weaknesses • Deer hooves can puncture the membrane if they hit the HDPE just right • Experimental, not frequently used • Specialized equipment needed to repair Typical Applications • Not typical anywhere. These are experimental; however, those shown in photographs appear successful after 12 years of use. Photographs A: Aerial view at landfill. B: Street view at landfill. 9 —Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) Bl ..x-:411, INTERLOCKING CONCRETE BLOCKS Description • These are for low-velocity areas and recommended for velocities less than two feet per second Strengths • Easy to install, and many contractors are familiar with them Weaknesses • Like all erosion protection measures, their weakest area is at the edges and terminations. These blocks can unravel at the edges. • Should never use to interface with moving water in a channel or above 100 -year flood elevation. • Must be engineered carefully, not just stacked. Typical Applications • Stabilization outside of channels Photographs -T max:•-�,s:: A: Retaining wall application. B: Velocity -reduction buffers. 10 —Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) INTERLOCKING CONCRETE PAVERS Description • Pavers are for low-velocity areas and are recommended for velocities of two feet per second or less Strengths • These blocks have voids that can be soil -filled so that grass can grow in the spaces • Reduce runoff and is often more permeable than concrete paving • Economical with a broad range of applications • Can work in conjunction with a stormwater management program or LEED certification Weaknesses • Low-velocity applications only • Ground compaction and settling can cause surface elevation differences The block can unravel and fall apart Typical Applications • Bank and streambed stabilization Photographs A: Wave stabilization. B: Storm outfall bank stabilization. 11— Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) MISCELLANEOUS EROSION CONTROL MEASURES Description • Rock check dams, coconut logs, and silt fences are most frequently used on SWPPP, but at times can be used successfully when combined with other features for longer-term solutions. Strengths • Cost-effective • Can be used in conjunction with other erosion control methods Weaknesses • Only intended for the lowest -velocity, lowest -flow -depth applications Typical Applications • Should be used in conjunction with the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) or Revised USLE (RUSLE). These equations will estimate the tons of soil loss per year, based on the vegetative cover, slope length, velocity per channel, depth of water in the channel, soil erodibility, etc. Photographs -­co-Q. ibwfo 241x21,xMh ibtro X.SJM xOwmmk Oak;UA*o cftwltFiiiwlRollhilhEinitato knowfiah A: Rock check dams.

(Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) ROCK RIPRAP Description Rock riprap is hard, angular stone of a graded size intended to interlock and provide protection from water scour. The riprap is angular so as to provide internal friction against moving water. Rock riprap must be "placed"—not "dumped"—to optimize sizing. Rock size selected is dependent upon both velocity of water and depth of water. Strengths • Economical (low cost compared to other bank protection techniques) • Relatively simple construction with no special equipment or construction techniques necessary • Easily repaired by adding stone to damaged areas • Vegetation can often grow between rocks, increasing stability of the bank and improving habitat value • Riprap structures are flexible and are not impaired or weakened by settling or other minor adjustments • May be considered as an environmental habitat Weaknesses • Expensive if stone is not readily available • If not properly installed or sized, the rock material may wash out to the bottom of the lake • There is a potential for theft/vandalism of the rock material Typical Applications • Used to prevent/repair wave erosion • Used in conjunction with concrete lining to stabilize side slopes Photographs A: Creek shore application. B: Channel schematic. 13 —Alan Plummer Associates, Inc. (Texas Registered Engineering Firm F-13) VEGETATION Description • Mowed grass, tall grasses, sedges, shrubs, trees, etc. Strengths • Many would argue that mature vegetation equals erosion control • Environmentally attractive • Aesthetic benefits • Can be used to support other measures Weaknesses • May require regular irrigation • Difficult to reach maturity, may require maintenance over many years to reach maturity • Erosion control may not be possible until plants are mature • More difficult for engineer to seal because maturity is required for the roots to provide protection Typical Applications • Used in conjunction with concrete channel lining or on erosion control mat to reinforce the side slopes or overbank Photographs A: Vegetation for bank stabilization. B: Vegetation installation schematic. C: Sedge planting for bank stabilization. D: Sedges planted as ground stabilization. 14— Alan Plummer Associates, Inc.
