Active Slope Protection System

The Active Slope Protection System is a flexible and high-strength rockfall protection solution designed to stabilize unstable slopes, prevent rockfalls, and control loose rocks and debris on mountainsides, highways, railways, mining areas, and other challenging terrains.

Unlike passive rockfall barriers, an active slope protection system is installed directly onto the slope surface. The high-strength steel wire mesh applies continuous restraint to unstable rocks and soil, helping prevent rock detachment and reducing the risk of rockfall and slope erosion.

Our system is commonly used as an SNS Flexible Slope Protection System and can be customized according to different slope conditions, protection requirements, and engineering designs.

Key Features

• Active Slope Stabilization – Installed directly against the slope to continuously restrain loose rocks and unstable soil.
• High-Strength Steel Wire Mesh – Provides reliable coverage and long-term protection in demanding outdoor environments.
• Flexible Structure – The flexible mesh can adapt to uneven and irregular rock surfaces.
• Rockfall Prevention – Helps prevent loose rocks and debris from falling onto roads, railways, buildings, and other protected areas.
• Corrosion Resistant – Galvanized or hot-dip galvanized steel components provide enhanced resistance to corrosion and weather exposure.
• Large Coverage Area – Suitable for large-scale mountain and infrastructure protection projects.
• Customizable System – Mesh specifications, wire rope diameter, anchors, support ropes, and accessories can be configured according to project requirements.
• Easy Transportation and Installation – The flexible mesh can be rolled for convenient transportation and installation.

Main Components

A typical Active Slope Protection System may include:

• High-strength steel wire rope mesh
• Steel wire ropes
• Anchor bolts
• Anchoring plates
• Supporting ropes
• Connection clips
• Steel posts and accessories
• Other slope stabilization components

The exact configuration can be adjusted according to the slope conditions and engineering requirements.

Applications

The Active Slope Protection System is widely used for:

• Highway slope protection
• Railway slope stabilization
• Mountain and rockfall protection
• Mining and quarry slope protection
• Tunnel entrances and exits
• Hydropower and infrastructure projects
• Construction sites
• Landslide-prone areas
• Rock and soil erosion control

Active vs. Passive Slope Protection

An active slope protection system is installed directly on the slope surface to restrain unstable rocks and soil and reduce the possibility of rockfall.

A passive slope protection system is generally installed in a designated interception area below the slope to capture falling rocks and debris after they detach.

For unstable slopes where continuous restraint is required, an active protection system can provide an effective long-term solution.
