Evocrib
Benefits of EvoCRIBS
Sustainability
Sourced from FSC certified forests the timber coupled with the use of fill material which can from either a site won or a recycled source make a Timber crib wall one of the most sustainable retaining solutions available.
Aesthetic
The natural timber finish of the EvoCrib is far softer than an equivalent reinforced concrete wall.
Cost
A Timber crib wall can be installed for less than other retaining systems depending on the ground parameters and the height of wall required.
Use of recycled fill
Recycled concrete or bricks can be used for the crib fill as well as site won crushed rock.
What are Evocribs?
Timber crib walls are a cellular mass gravity earth retaining system. One of the oldest gravity wall systems they work on the engineering principle that the mass of the installed system allows it to counteract the forces generated by earth pressure, water pressure and surcharge loading. The system utilises modular components in order to form a cellular structure which can retain heights up to 10 meters. They are quick to build and can be used for retention, as a facing for sheet piles, concrete piles, soil nailed/reinforced earth applications or as a sound barrier.
