Fabriform® Articulated Block Revetments

Fabriform Articulated Block revetments consist of rectangular concrete blocks cast in place and linked together by reinforcing cables (if required) inserted between the two layers of fabric prior to fine aggregate concrete injection. Cables allow the revetment to articulate with changing soil and water conditions. Articulated block revetments provide protection for ditches, creeks, bridge abutments, flood control, levees, channels, canals, dam spillways, liner protection and any where else hard armor protection is required.

KEY BENEFITS:

• For slopes subject to severe underscour or consolidation
• Ease of installation above and below water
• Economical, adaptable and durable revetment
