ArmorFlex®
• ArmorFlex arrives on-site as a system of factory-assembled mats. ArmorFlex is placed on a site specific geotextile which has been placed on a prepared subgrade using conventional construction equipment.
• Mats are supplied on 42-foot trailers, up to 1600 square feet per truck.
• Mats can be handled with a spreader bar which is provided by Armortec with the initial load.
• Permanent anchorage can be achieved by connecting the mat cables to patented anchors such as “Helix” or “Duckbill”.
• Mats subject to wave attack should be blinded with a sand/gravel mixture. Above normal waterline mats may be topsoiled and seeded to give a “green” effect.
• Proper toe trench requires a minimum of 2 rows of block buried below predicated soil depth.
• Mats subject to wave attack are required to have a bedding layer of crushed stone or gravel.
