Naturalistic engineering: bank protection interventions

The classic intervention is the one that uses rocks of considerable size and weight and the re-greening of the bank with the insertion of willow cuttings between one rock and another.

Another type of intervention uses simple or double live palisades or even coverings with willow twigs, alder cuttings, tamarisk or other species.

La bank vegetation plays an important role as it reduces the speed of the current, promotes the capture of sediments and consolidates the banks.

In this category there are dwg files useful for naturalistic engineering: some solutions with the use of living plant material (plants or parts of them) in combination with other non-cement inert materials such as stone, earth, wood, steel, as well as in union with mats in plant or synthetic fibres.
