DEWATERING SOLUTIONS - STEEL | VINYL SHEET PILING | BRIDGE ABUTMENTS | MSE RETAINING WALL DRAINAGE
JETFILTER SYSTEM
4"dia. JET Filter weep hole system
4"dia. JET Filter weep hole system
Earth Retaining Structures (ERS) are failing daily in all parts of the world due to clogged or insufficient weep holes.
MANAGEABLE WEEP HOLE COMPONENT
The JET FILTER relieves the hydrostatic pressures created by rain water as well as tidal surges trapped behind erosion control structures such as:
• Seawalls (Concrete)
• Bulkheads (Wood)
• MSE Retaining Walls (Block Systems)
• Sheet Piling (Steel, Vinyl, Composite, Aluminum)
• Bridge Abutments (Concrete, Wing Walls, Slope Protection)
• Flood Control Channels
GEOTEXTILE FILTRATION AND EROSION CONTROL
The media equipped in the JET Filter System is the highly rated Mirafi® Filter-weave FW 300 series. This media maintains long-term flow rates in high gradient and dynamic conditions.
Made in the USA

EARTH RETAINING STRUCTURE | WEEP HOLE COMPONENT REPAIR & INSTALLATION SECTION
Weep Hole Drainage and Erosion Control for steel sheet piling, vinyl sheet piling, bridge abutments, concrete seawalls, MSE retaining walls
There are two components to a Marina apron structure, the first being the seawall/retaining wall and then the concrete apron area for forklift travel.
SOLUTIONS
Backed by civil engineers, marine contractors, project managers, government and state officials. A lack of erosion control is a vital issue among a retaining wall design. One common problem is wall movement in addition to tieback/whaler tension, toe failure, horizontal cracking and panel separation.
Weep holes are created to relieve the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic water pressure from behind the wall without causing soil loss and/or sinkholes. It's very important to have access to the erosion control fabric from behind the wall that inevitably will clog and/or deteriorate over time if not properly maintained.
The key component of the flush-mount dewatering JET Filter System is the ability to remove the inner filter cartridge from the front face of any retaining wall design which can be maintained to get the most life expectancy of any wall installed.
The weep hole systems can be easily installed on any new or existing earth retaining structures.
