system available for cut ‘n’ cover structure. TechSpan® is a two or three
hinge arch system. The structures are formed in reinforced concrete and are
delivered to site as segmental precast elements - ready for immediate and
rapid, installation.
TechBox™ are precast box structures. Terre Armée has developed expertise
in optimizing soil-structure interaction mechanics to minimize section sizes
and allow rapid on-site regulated installation with precast units for buried
‘box’ structures.
The TechBox™ system is based on precision Precast Concrete modular
element comprising free standing walls and over bridging units and has all
features and advantages similar to that of TechSpan®.

hroughout history, nature’s forces have proven to
be overwhelmingly dangerous, causing mammoth
destruction. Particularly in hilly terrain, the possibility of
such natural disaster is very high in terms of landslide,
unstable slopes, rockfall and debris flow.
Terre Armée India, drawing on global expertise, fulfills the demanding
requirements of slope engineering and geo-hazard solutions.
TerraSlope ®
TerraSlope® Reinforced Earth steepened slope
Terre Armée in India offers bespoke TerraSlope® technique to build
steepend slopes for slope engineering, slope management and
geo-hazard solutions.

is used for temporary and permanent applications (more than
70 years design life) by enhancing the durability protection of
