Debris Flow Barriers

High-capacity barriers to capture and control fast-moving debris flows.

Debris flow barriers are engineered to contain fast-moving flows of rock, soil, and water triggered by intense rainfall or slope failure. Installed across gullies or drainage paths, these flexible structures absorb and slow debris flows, protecting downstream infrastructure. With high-capacity energy dissipation and controlled retention, debris flow barriers prevent catastrophic damage to haul roads, mine facilities, and water management systems.


Benefits:

  • Contains and slows debris flows safely

  • Protects downstream mine infrastructure and haul roads

  • Adaptable to site-specific topography and flow conditions
