GeoMega ™ REINFORCED EARTH ®

MSE Wall System

GeoMega™ is a MSE retaining wall, coherent


Precast or C.I.P. gravity structure. The primary components of a
Barrier/Coping Geostrap or Ecostrap GeoMega wall consist of alternating layers of
Precast Synthetic Reinforcement granular backfill, and high-tenacity synthetic soil
Facing reinforcements attached to a modular precast
Panels concrete facing. The GeoMega system is fully
compatible with the entire range of concrete
panels typically supplied by The Reinforced Earth
MSE Volume Company.
Backfill
Leveling Pad
The GeoMega system allows retaining structures
to be constructed in chemically aggressive
Typical Section environments such as marine environments,
corrosive backfilling materials, pollution risks, etc.
CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE:
• Set and brace the initial course of facing panels
• Spread and compact backfill
• Place, anchor and tension GeoStraps
• Spread and compact backfill
• Repeat cycle of backfilling and compacting in lifts,
placing GeoStraps, and setting panels until design
height is reached

Two types of synthetic reinforcements are available:


• GeoStrap® strip (PET)
• Ecostrap™ strip (PVA)
The synthetic reinforcement type is adapted according to the project specifcations and are selected based
on the environment and the desired service duration of the structure.
