Geoquest offers both passive and active engineered structural solutions that mitigate rockfall risk and control levels of damage. Rockfall protection barriers are made of metallic, non-metallic and/ or composite materials. It is primarily applied to arrest and catch rocks, boulders, shooting stones or debris that can be flowing or falling due to natural causes. The rockfall protection barrier is a support solution allowing to hold these disintegrating and falling elements, subsequently avoiding damages to infrastructure and preventing disruptions such as traffic blockages. Typical catchment fences are installed in run-outor deposition zones, close to the elements at risk that they protect.
