Flexible Design Solutions for Resilient Dams and Spillways: Webinar Q&A Insights
Flexible Design Solutions for Resilient Dams and Spillways Presented by Sam Justice, P.E.
When it comes to erosion control and slope protection in dam and spillway applications, unique challenges arise due to the potential for high water flows and heavy hydraulic pressure. We understand the importance of finding effective solutions for various scenarios, whether it’s protecting an infrequently used spillway area, a dam crest with semi-frequent vehicle traffic, or even entire dam structures that are in constant use.
During this webinar, we showcase how the GEOWEB® Soil Stabilization System provides a reliable and tailored approach to erosion control and slope protection in dam and spillway environments.
Learning Objectives:
- Gain in-depth insight into the erosion control capabilities of the GEOWEB System, understanding how it effectively protects against the force of water flow.
- Acquire practical knowledge on the application of the GEOWEB Slope Protection System across a wide range of project conditions, enabling you to adapt it to various environments with confidence.
- Discover how the GEOWEB Confinement System addresses typical construction issues and design problems, equipping you with strategies to overcome challenges and simplify your erosion control projects.
- Develop a comprehensive understanding of how the GEOWEB System reduces vertical pressure on the subgrade, allowing for a reduced cross-section without compromising the structural integrity of the project.

Designing Resilient & Cost-Effective Stormwater Channels Presented by Sam Justice, P.E.
Learn how the GEOWEB® Channel Protection System offers an innovative solution to channel erosion. High-flow environments pose a risk of soil and rock washout, leading to uncontrolled water flow and landscape degradation. Traditional methods like riprap and concrete are often costly and labor-intensive. The GEOWEB system presents a versatile alternative, adaptable to a range of infill materials that cater to both functional requirements and aesthetic preferences, effectively countering hydraulic stresses.
Discover the economic and installation benefits of the GEOWEB system. Its design versatility accommodates low to high flow conditions, ensuring stability across various erosive scenarios. By allowing the use of local materials and negating the necessity for internal reinforcements, the GEOWEB system reduces overall costs and simplifies installation. The system is engineered to sustain high-velocity water flow and is particularly efficient in energy dissipation, which is crucial for maintaining integrity on steep gradients.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the benefits of GEOWEB channel protection from accredited research and testing.
- Learn how the GEOWEB confinement system can accommodate typical construction issues and design problems.
- Understand the typical applications for GEOWEB channel protection and how to utilize on-site materials.
- Learn how to apply GEOWEB confinement to control high flow situations and energy dissipation requirements.
