Rockfall Protection
Rockfall protection contains the risk at the slope, before loose rock becomes a hazard to the road or structure below.
Rock slopes along highways and hillside sites can shed loose fragments without warning, putting roads, structures and people at risk below. Rockfall protection systems - netting, mesh and barriers - contain or redirect falling rock before it reaches anything that matters.
We select and install the system based on the slope's rockfall risk, the size of material likely to fall, and what needs protecting below.
