Introduction

Nilex offers various innovative Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) and Reinforced Steepened Slope (RSS) systems for grade-separation challenges. These engineered solutions provide clients with an array of possibilities with respect to aesthetics and facing inclination, allowing for the most cost-effective use of land while achieving maximum architectural and environmental value. We offer proven economical alternatives to traditional grade-separation building materials and practices that incorporate high-performance geosynthetic products and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) soil reinforcement systems.

Nilex MSE systems can be designed to address technical challenges such as potential for differential settlement and seismic activity, heavy loading and non-standard backfill materials. Our dedicated MSE Division specializes in the delivery of MSE systems of all types in all market segments. Our MSE systems include reinforcement, facing and drainage materials, design and support services.

Testimonials

I want to thank you for getting things organized as quickly as you did for us and for the follow up calls and site visits that allowed us to get this work done and meet our schedule dates for the road work. As well, your product knowledge and ability to provide the technical support when dealing with the consultants was a major help in getting the system approved and installed correctly.

– Bob T, Project Manager, MGP Construction Ltd.

Not only was there a substantial cost savings realized by the client, there was also a benefit to the road structure as well. The original design road structure number was 3.780 and a calculated traffic (ESALs) of 2,147,000. The revised road structure number using the TX5 is 4.260 and a calculated traffic (ESALs) of 4,593,000.
