Permashield™ Reinforcement Concept

Permashield™ provides unmatched performance for levee reinforcement. 6’ systems are placed into the heart of the levee and can be filled with a multitude of material:

  • Asphalt Millings

  • Sand

  • Crushed Concrete

The 6’ systems are then covered with earth and encapsulated inside the levee. Permashield™ protects the structure from water pressure, storm surge pressure, bearing pressure, and lateral earth pressure.
