Effects and Types of Vegetation Engineering | Major Methods for Preventing Surface Erosion and Protecting Natural Slopes

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do you know how effective vegetation engineering and vegetation mats are? While they aren’t very popular these days, it’s no exaggeration to say that in the past, vegetation was the standard method for slope protection. 🌾 The main methods include seed spraying, soil spraying, and vegetation substrate spraying…

This is the vegetation stabilization method used in slope engineering.

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Landscaping is one aspect of slope construction. The types include: 1. Seed Broadcasting, 2. Seed Spraying (commonly known as “mud spraying”), 3. Vegetation Mat Installation, and 4. Vegetation Substrate Spraying (t=○○ cm). 1. Seed Broadcasting: Seeds (pasture grasses or native species), fertilizer, adhesive, …

What Is the Difference Between Thick-Layer Substrate Spraying and Vegetation Substrate Spraying?

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I saw a question on Yahoo! Answers asking, “What’s the difference between thick-layer substrate spraying and vegetation substrate spraying?” lol. Do any of you know the answer? Well, obviously, they’re exactly the same. Starting about 15 years ago (in 2009), thick-layer substrate…

What criteria should be used to determine the spray thickness on a vegetation substrate?

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’m sure you’ve all measured soil hardness in vegetation engineering projects before; that measurement is used to determine the spray thickness. I received a question the other day asking, “Isn’t it strange to change the spray thickness for a single site based on soil hardness!?” So, the government agency is looking into the hardness…
