MEGS

Advanced Reinforced Steep Slopes Solutions

We engineer innovative solutions for reinforced steep slopes that combine strength, flexibility, and sustainability. Our systems allow for the safe and efficient use of land in challenging topographies—delivering stability without compromising the environment or design intent.

What are

Reinforced Steep Slopes

Reinforced steep slopes are engineered soil structures that use geogrid reinforcement to stabilize embankments with inclinations steeper than what unreinforced soil can support. These systems enable construction on limited or sloped terrain by reinforcing the soil mass to resist sliding and erosion.

MEGS utilizes high performance geosynthetics and tailored design techniques to construct safe, sustainable, and cost effective steep slope systems. Whether you’re reclaiming land, supporting infrastructure, or preventing landslides, our solutions provide long-term slope stability with minimal environmental impact.

Applications of Reinforced Steep Slopes

Reinforced steep slopes are used in transportation infrastructure, roadway expansions, site development, industrial platforms, flood protection, mining operations, and landfill construction. They are especially effective where space is limited, and natural topography must be preserved or optimized.

Types Of Slopes

Types Of Slopes

Slopes vary in steepness and structural demands, and each type requires specific engineering solutions to ensure long-term stability and performance. Whether dealing with gentle inclines or steep embankments, proper reinforcement plays a critical role in preventing erosion, enhancing soil retention, and supporting infrastructure. 

1H:1V or Flatter

Gentler slopes that generally require minimal reinforcement. These are often finished with vegetation or surface treatments to control erosion and blend into the natural environment.

1H:1V Or Steeper

Steeper slopes that demand stronger reinforcement systems, such as high-strength geogrids and engineered design, to maintain long-term structural integrity and prevent failure.

Embankments

Raised earth structures used to support roads, railways, or platforms. These often require reinforced slope systems to manage load distribution, improve stability, and ensure safe, long-term performance.

Types Of Fascia

Types Of Fascia

G Web

Geocell facia system made of HDPE strips forming a cellular structure, offering flexible, lightweight facing for reinforced soil walls.

G Wire Mesh

Galvanized wire mesh panels used as facia to support vegetation or shotcrete, suitable for temporary or permanent slope stabilization.

G Wrap

Geogrid wrap-around facia method, using exposed geogrid layers compacted between lifts to create a clean and green-faced retaining wall.

R-Gabion

Rock-filled wire mesh baskets stacked as rigid facia units, ideal for drainage, durability, and natural appearance in retaining systems.

R Wire Mesh

Rigid steel mesh facing system combined with soil nails or geogrid, offering strength, minimal deformation, and a stable slope face.

<45˚

Slopes constructed with inclinations less than 45 degrees, often vegetated or covered, offering natural stability without structural facia elements.

Slope Stability

Slope Stability

slope stability systems reinforce soil structures using geosynthetics to prevent sliding, resist erosion, and maintain long-term performance on natural or engineered slopes.

Internal Stability

Ensures the reinforced soil mass remains structurally sound under applied loads using the correct reinforcement spacing and strength.

Compound Stability

Considers the interaction between the reinforced slope and adjacent structures or loads to ensure holistic safety.

Global Stability

Evaluates the entire slope system’s ability to resist deep-seated failure, often analyzed through comprehensive geotechnical modeling.
