Mud-flow barrier ASM

Mud-flow barrier ASM

Flexible mudflow barriers attributed to the form mudflow catching structures. Main purpose of the structure - to stop debris flow and retain its solid component in the upstream. Mudflow barriers can be installed across the channel in single configuration or in form of cascade barriers one by one. Mudflow barriers are installed from side to side of the valley. Between the lower bearing rope and the bottom of the valley leaves an opening for unobstructed passing of runoff and wild animals. Main element of the barrier – is original steel ring net ASM with a tensile strength up to 1000 kN/m. Ring net installed on top and bottom ropes. Ropes through absorbers goes flexible cable anchors, grouted in the sides of the valley. Depending on the height of the barrier for strengthening of mother net additional intermediate ropes also can be used. S-decelerators absorb kinetic energy of the first hit wave, reducing pull out load on cable ground anchors. In order to protect from mechanical damage
