The strength, resilience and flexibility of our solutions give our clients confidence to meet their demands for designing structures under extreme loading conditions, situated on poor soils, and building in remote and environmentally sensitive locations.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Development for industrial operations normally entails foundation preparations and stabilization. This work is carried out with our solutions using geogrids and geotextiles. Through our geo-line of solutions, we address sub-grade reinforcement<\/a>, erosion control<\/a>, drainage and waterproofing.<\/p>\n The industrial-use landscape often requires large amounts of excavation, clearing and earth retention in support of future structures. Preparing for site access and permanent mobility calls for temporary and permanent grade separations, retaining walls<\/a>, roads, bridges <\/a>and platforms<\/a> as normal parts of industrial siteworks. Terre Arm\u00e9e answers to these needs with Reinforced Earth\u00ae walls<\/a> and TechSpan\u00ae<\/a> or TechBox\u2122 bridges and culverts<\/a>.<\/p>\n Terre Arm\u00e9e solutions apply whether your project is upstream or downstream. Our experience extends to processing natural gas or crude oil, shale deposits or oilsands. Our structures support:<\/p>\n Storage tanks and impoundment facilities are key to Oil and Gas operations. Secondary containment of liquids stored in tanks mitigate risks and damage as a result of tank failures, accidental flooding, spills and leaks. Reinforced Earth\u00ae walls<\/a> are built to create areas of confined space to impound spilled hazardous liquid for treatment, conveyance and controlled disposal.<\/p>\n Terre Arm\u00e9e engineers are experts in designing containment solutions that are accepted worldwide. We use techniques and materials that are inherently designed to meet cryogenic safety standards for rapid thermal shock and explosions. Reinforced Earth\u00ae walls<\/a> are proven through full-scale cryogenic testing and live accident documentation to perform under extreme conditions. For instance, stable structural performance at temperatures of -160 degrees C\u00b0 for liquid natural gas, and up to a flame temperature of 1100 degrees C\u00b0 has been documented. These walls are also routinely designed to mitigate damage caused by explosions and bombardment. A series of tests spanning 40 years confirms the efficient performance of Reinforced Earth\u00ae structures<\/a> subjected to high-level pressures.<\/p>\n Due to their high resilience and ductility, these walls also withstand natural forces such as earthquake, hurricane, rockfall and avalanche.<\/p>\n Our teams work with engineers to solve problems relating to storage tank settlement. As opposed to cast-in-place walls, a Reinforced Earth\u00ae ring wall<\/a> mitigates the effects of settlement. These walls can shift naturally with the tank bottom, which controls differential settlement between the center of tank and edge of tank.<\/p>\n For pipeline protection, whether on land or in water, we provide a protective shelter from the elements using either Hydrotex\u00ae\u00a0geosynthetic formed concrete mattress<\/a> or TechSpan\u00ae concrete arches<\/a> to protect pipelines from external assault, scour, and to mitigate damage in the event of leakage.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> The composite Reinforced Earth\u00ae mass is a highly stable explosion barrier that impedes the propagation of a blast at ground level and absorbs high levels of energy due to its tolerance for deformation. Resistant to multiple fracturing, our panels minimize the dispersal of debris.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Reinforced Earth\u00ae with steel reinforcements is inherently non flammable and highly resistant to thermal variations, which makes it an ideal choice for the construction of structures for the oil and gas industry.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Reinforced Earth\u00ae are impermeable when combined with waterproofing. Often used for safety dykes around large tanks of volatile liquid petroleum products, the Reinforced Earth\u00ae dyke contains the escaping liquid should a tank rupture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Related applications<\/p><\/h2><\/span>Site development: structures<\/h2>\n
