CONT

Looped geotextile strips have been utilized in a multi-anchored retaining wall system employed in Austria .... This system uses semicircular concrete anchor elements, similar in appearance to segments cut from a concrete pipe.... The strengths required from looped geotextile strips or looped geotextile ties for multi-anchored walls makes site thermal welding of pre-cut lengths unsatisfactory. Only factory-produced loops with a guaranteed minimum breaking strength should be used in such a critical reinforcing role.
