Menta
Menta
Flexible avalanche fencing protection installed in avalanche starting zones to preventively hold the snowpack in place.
→ Usable on all ground types (loose or rocky), this reference solution for permanent active protection is made up of posts which support a set of modules of flexible triangular nets.
Functional ADVANTAGES :
LIGHTWEIGHT:
- Light weight: reduced working time and costs bringing it to site.
- Open structure: low visual impact in both winter and summer.
- Reduced number of anchors: needed only upstream and downstream and not under the post.
PROVEN:
- On site over more than 35 years with snow from 2 to 7 meters high in light snow (Alps) or high density snow (Pyrenees, Iceland), in several European and American countries.
- Developed to comply with French standard NF P 95-304 (for all heights of snow) and sized in line with the requirements of the Swiss Directive (for different thicknesses of snow).
FLEXIBLE:
- Adaptable to all types of land and topography, using net modules and triangular mesh.
- Choice of assembly procedure: manual lifting or pre-assembled units brought in by helicopter.
- Different distances between anchors and posts, depending on the ground resistance and construction of anchors.
