Case Study
Loch Garry Spillway
Loch Garry Spillway Building with Nature Case Study Salix supplied VMax P550, a composite Turf Reinforcement Mat, as part of our work with SSE Renewable Generation and UB Civils on Loch Garry dam safety works. Over 400m of embankment and auxiliary spillways required a reliable and cost effective product which would withstand overtopping and extreme events. The reinforcing element of VMax P550 ensures it is the best solution for high stress scenarios such as spillways. VMax P550 has been independently tested at four research institutions and results are openly published from 1 hour to 50 hour flow durations. It has performed superbly in these trials, with little or no failure in the most extreme tests. Salix River & Wetland Services Limited Salix, Croxton Park, Thetford, Norfolk IP2
