MSEPlus WIRE WALLS

SSL’s welded wire-faced MSE system is employed on a wide variety of highway, industrial, mining and forestry projects. Although not aesthetically faced, these walls are structural equivalents of single-stage walls and even carry some advantages. The system’s lightweight components, inherent flexibility, economy and versatility make it well suited for temporary and permanent applications where settlement tolerance, easy transport and installation, adaptability to special innovations and the lowest possible costs are important.

MSE Walls

  • Mechanically stabilized earth wall systems for highway, civil engineering and property development projects.
  • Also known as Reinforced earthen walls, retained earth walls, Hilfiker walls, wire walls, earth retaining structures, reinforced earth walls

The MSEPlus Welded Wire Wall System was originally developed as a structurally equivalent, low priced alternative to precast walls for applications with budgetary constraints and/or when the appearance of the wall face is unimportant. Yet today, wire faced walls are central to some unique innovations in MSE technology. Wire walls are the base structures for two-stage MSE walls and also form the basis for the unique custom-colored hand-sculpted shotcrete walls used on historical and environmentally sensitive projects throughout the U.S.
