Maximizing Erosion Control With Proper Material Selection

Sept. 25, 2015

In recent years, a mass of emerging sustainable revegetation and erosion control products and technologies have hit the market. And with these new products, product selection methods, tools, and techniques have significantly advanced. So what solutions are available? And how can you evaluate and select the best product for your construction and roadway site?

Join Dr. Michael Robeson for a FREE webinar exploring how you can use product selection pyramids tied to specific site criteria to evaluate your construction and roadway site conditions, assess the vegetation parameters, and ultimately select the best erosion control technology (e.g., HECPs, RECPs) to establish sustainable vegetation at your construction and roadway sites.

This webinar will be available live on Wednesday, Oct. 21st11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. PDT / 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. EDT, and available on-demand after the live event. Register for the event by clicking the button below.

In this webinar, we’ll begin by reviewing the key design parameters and quantification methods for evaluating your site’s conditions. Within this discussion, Robeson will cover the key design parameters, calculations, and tools / resources available to help you match the proper erosion control technologies to your specific site conditions and goals (e.g., erosion control, functional longevity, growth establishment, etc.). Building on this foundation, we’ll take a look at Rolled Erosion Control Products (RECPs) and Hydraulic Applied Erosion Control Products (HECPs), comparing their differences, applications, and benefits, as well as how to choose the best product for your project. Finally, we’ll round out our tour with several real-world examples of projects where rolled and hydraulic products were successfully selected and employed, and how you can apply the same to your sites.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn the important site parameters and methods for quantifying site conditions.
  • Understand the importance of design parameters and how to match technologies to specific site conditions.
  • Understand Rolled Erosion Control Products (RECPs) and Hydraulic Applied Erosion Control Products (HECPs), the differences, and the benefits they offer.
  • Learn through real-world examples how proper product selection is critical in project success.
