The SHORETEC® Pipeline Mat System Overview
The SHORETEC® OS Mats System is the most durable, effective and environmentally friendly, pipeline protection method. The interlocking design and quality manufacturing results in outstanding performance and reliability under the most demanding hydraulic loading conditions. The interlocking units and corrosion resistant cables allow the SHORETEC® PM system to articulate with unequaled strength and stability. This stability is important on channel bends or curves where angle or wedge mattresses are used. Cable connections between angle mattresses and adjacent mattresses ensure continuous strength throughout the entire revetment system. This unique feature provides the system integrity necessary for a virtually maintenance-free revegetative surface.
SHORETEC® Pipeline Mat System Performance
The SHORETEC® OS Mats system is a cabled concrete revetment mat which has been proven in the laboratory and the field as a technical and economical improvement over traditional forms of pipeline protection. By virtue of their large unit mass and bi-directional corrosion resistant cables, the SHORETEC® Pipeline Mat system provides an easily constructed, durable, flexible, and permeable erosion protection system.
The SHORETEC® OS Mats System was developed to provide a superior armored surface for long-term pipe protection. The SHORETEC® OS Mats system is placed on geotextile fabric, which provides soil retention, as well as permeability, throughout the system. The interlocking units and bi-directional corrosion resistant cables allow the SHORETEC® OS Mats System to articulate with unequaled strength and stability. Lateral cable connections between adjacent mattresses ensure continuous strength throughout the entire revetment system. This unique feature provides the system integrity necessary for maintenance free long term pipeline protection.
Upon complete assembly, the SHORETEC® OS Mats System can be stockpiled or loaded on flatbed trucks or barges for shipment to the job site.
