PROBLEM

The surface of the embankment is to be protected against any rill erosion, rain cut etc. The Slope of the embankment can be upto 2V:1H.

SOLUTION

It is assumed that the slope is stable and surface can be protected by vegetation. Since it takes time for vegetation to take root and reach optimum root density to provide meaningful erosion control, an erosion control blanket (ECB) suitable for local conditions is adopted.
