Longitudinal Structures/Linings
Longitudinal structures are a solution for the protection of river banks and adjacent land. The term longitudinal structure is used to define structures with their length parallel to the river flow. These structures are often built on existing natural banks and they usually extend for a considerable distance.
They are used for a variety of purposes, such as:
- Erosion control
- Control of meanderings
- Containment of the normal flow channel
- Flood protection
Longitudinal structures can be used alone or in combination with other structures to achieve the desired result. A trained water course reduces land-loss caused by erosion, yet the inherent strong currents can still erode the river banks destabilizing them. Therefore, the river bank protection solution must be commensurate with the level of hydraulic stress expected.
