Abstract
Description
- The invention pertains to sandbag wall systems for use in erosion control, flood protection, coastal protection, slope stabilization and similar applications, and to improved bags, walls and methods of making such walls.
- In the art of erosion control, flood protection, coastal protection, slope stabilization and the like, it is known to build stable and effective walls of sandbags, preferably using interconnecting plates to connect the bags together and stabilize the wall. See, for example, international patent publication WO 00/61880 (Kim), dated Oct. 19, 2000. The bags used in such walls may be made of geotextile, a material having properties desirable for such applications. Geotextile is, however, subject to degradation by UV light from exposure of the wall face to sunlight. Additives can be incorporated in geotextile to render the material resistant to UV light, but it is preferable for environmental reasons to reduce or avoid chemical additives in the material. It would be desirable to provide a bag that, if the exposed face fails due to damage from UV exposure (or other causes, such as mechanical damage) the bag as a whole would not fail and would substantially remain functional within the wall.
- Further, it is desirable to be able to grow vegetation on the face of a sandbag retaining wall. This can be done by using soil mixed with grass or other plant seeds as a fill material. However, for particular applications, other fill material such as gravel may be useful, and it would be desirable to provide for both kinds of fill material, or others, in a suitable configuration in the bag.
- The invention provides a multi-compartment bag for holding fill material, for use in the construction of sandbag walls. The bag has a wall, a closed bottom and a top edge, the bag wall having opposed wall sections attached together along a line extending from the bag bottom towards the top edge, forming two compartments in the bag that open to the top edge and are adapted to receive fill material.
- According to another embodiment, the bag has a plurality of lines of attachment between opposed wall sections, forming a plurality of compartments, such as three or more compartments.
- According to another embodiment, there is provided a sandbag wall comprising a plurality of such bags. The compartments in a bag may be filled with different fill materials, such as soil or dry mix concrete, and the bags are positioned such that the compartments with a given fill material are aligned end to end, for example having the compartments with soil as the fill material positioned to form the exposed face of the wall.
- The invention further provides a method of constructing a sandbag wall. Bags having multiple compartments are provided, the compartments are filled with fill material, the bags are closed and a plurality of such filled bags are positioned to form the wall. The different compartments may be filled with different fill material.
- In this specification, “fill material” means any material that is suitable for use in bags in the construction of walls, including sand, soil, gravel, dry mix concrete (which hardens after wetting and curing) and mixtures thereof, including fill material with seeds for vegetation. The term “sandbag” as used in this specification means a bag containing any “fill material.”For further clarity, the term is not limited to a bag in which the fill material is sand. The term “wall” as used herein in relation to structures made of sandbags includes any array of sandbags that is suitable for the purpose of erosion control (for example along shorelines, riverbanks, etc.), flood control, retaining or stabilizing slopes or embankments, noise barriers, landscaping, and for similar applications.
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a bag having two compartments according to one embodiment of the invention; -
FIG. 2 is an end view on the line 2-2 ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is an end view similar toFIG. 2 showing another embodiment of the bag, having three compartments; -
FIG. 4 is a top plan view of a course of bags in a sandbag wall; and -
FIG. 5 is a vertical cross-sectional view through a sandbag wall. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 and 2 ,bag 10 has a wall 12, a closedbottom 14 and atop edge 16. It is preferably made of geotextile material and formed of a single piece thereof by sewing alongbottom edge 16 andlongitudinal side edge 18. The wall 12 accordingly has twoopposed wall sections -
Wall sections attachment 24, preferably by sewing, thus forming twocompartments bottom 14 toward thetop edge 16 of the bag. The line of attachment may extend all the way totop edge 16 but it is not necessary that it do so, since the bag is not filled to the top edge to permit it to be closed. - Preferably, the line of
attachment 24 is approximately perpendicular to the top edge of the bag, so each compartment has a uniform cross-section along its length. - In order to use
bag 10 in the construction of a wall, it is filled with one or more suitable fill materials, for example by means of pouring the fill material into the opentop end 16 of the bag, filling both compartments, and then closing the top end, for example by tying it with a suitable closure. It will be understood that filling the bag requires leaving enough empty space at the top to facilitate such tying, as the top edge is gathered together by such tie. The open top end may also be closed by sewing, stapling, etc. - Referring to
FIGS. 4 and 5 , the filledbags 10, tied closed bytie 11, are assembled into a wall configuration comprising a plurality of generallyhorizontal courses 15. Configurations of sandbags forming retaining walls and erosion control structures are well known in the prior art, for example WO 00/61880, andbags 10 can be employed in such configurations. Such walls comprise a plurality of generally horizontal courses of sandbags, the courses being arranged in a vertical or sloping configuration. In the present invention, the bags in eachcourse 15 are laid so that onecompartment 26 is adjacent to the outer (i.e. exposed)face 31 of the wall and theother compartment 28 is adjacent theinner side 33, i.e. adjacent to thebackfill 35 and the slope in back of the wall. It will be apparent that, in the event that the exposed face of a bag in the wall fails, for example due to UV degradation of the bag material, or mechanical damage, the contents ofcompartment 26 of the bag will be subject to erosion from the wall, butcompartment 28 of the bag will not be affected. - The two
compartments compartment 26 may be filled with soil, or soil mixed with seeds, andcompartment 28 with sand, gravel or dry mix concrete, depending on the requirements of the particular retaining wall or erosion control application. In such case, thebags 10 are positioned such that thecompartments 26 filled with soil form the outer face of the wall, to facilitate the growth of vegetation on the wall face. This both enhances the appearance of the wall and protects the bags from exposure to sunlight. - The two
compartments compartment 26 may be one-third the volume of the bag andcompartment 28 two-thirds, or half and half, or one-quarter and three-quarters, etc. The selection will depend on the particular application and the fill materials used. For example, a bag withcompartment 26 being one-third of the bag volume and filled with soil andcompartment 28 being two-thirds of the bag volume and filled with dry mix concrete would be suitable for an erosion control application where land and water meet, as along a shoreline or the embankment of a river or stream. - The bag can also be made with three or more compartments. Referring to
FIG. 3 , bag 10A has threecompartments attachment compartment 26A may be filled with soil, 28A with gravel and 28B with dry mix concrete, or as suitable for any particular application. - As will be apparent to those skilled in the art in the light of the foregoing disclosure, many alterations and modifications are possible in the practice of this invention without departing from the scope thereof. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is to be construed in accordance with the sub-stance defined by the following claims.
