Stage 01
Site Preparation
Prepare the work area and subgrade in accordance with the approved design, including specified geosynthetics where required.
An optimized Tough-Cells design is only as strong as its installation. The correct Neoloy® category, cell geometry and layer configuration can still underperform if layout, infill, fastening or compaction differ from the approved design.
That is why PRS treats installation as part of the engineering process, providing guidance to help the project team build the solution as designed.
While installation details vary by application and approved design, Neoloy Tough-Cells projects generally follow five core stages.
Prepare the work area and subgrade in accordance with the approved design, including specified geosynthetics where required.
Position Tough-Cells sections according to the approved layout, alignment and project geometry.
Expand the cells to the required dimensions and connect adjoining sections to maintain the intended system geometry.
Place the approved infill or cover material and compact as specified, while protecting the cells during construction.
Verify installation geometry, material placement and project-specific quality requirements before progressing.
Exact installation requirements depend on the application, approved design, site conditions and project specifications. Detailed guidance is provided as part of the project package.
Support is matched to the project, application, location and crew experience. The objective is to translate the approved design into clear field execution without replacing the contractor’s responsibility for construction and site management
Practical guidance helps installation teams understand the approved layout, handling requirements, connection methods and construction sequence before work begins.
Technical support can be provided at key construction stages to help verify that the installed system follows the approved design and project requirements.
Installation requirements vary by application. Detailed guidance is provided as part of the project package so the approved design can be translated into clear field execution.
Roads, railways, ports, yards and working platforms.
Reinforced-soil and mechanically stabilized wall solutions.
Slopes, embankments and exposed-ground stabilization.
Channels, outfalls, reservoirs and containment protection.
Installation should follow the approved project design, project-specific safety procedures and applicable regulations. PRS guidance supports correct product handling, installation and verification so the engineered configuration is implemented as intended.
Start with a project evaluation by our engineering team. Once the solution is designed and optimized for your project, PRS supports the transition from design to field implementation with installation guidance, training and project-specific support.
