Rockfall ATTENUATOR

ATTENUATOR: Redirect and guide rockfall efficiently

The ATTENUATOR System is a modified rockfall drape providing particularly efficient protection. The upper part deflects the falling rock and the drape directs the rock to the designated runout zone. This low-maintenance protection solution is used where high-frequency rockfall events are expected.

Geobrugg Attenuators are easily dimensioned with the free online tool ATTERO.

Easy dimensioning with ATTERO

Tested in large-scale field tests the ATTENUATOR is the first solution of its kind that can be efficiently dimensioned. This is done with the free online tool ATTERO.

Multiple impact capability

Система рассчитана на постоянное воздействие камнепадов и практически не требует обслуживания

Extra safety due to high-tensile steel

Protection against dynamic and point loads: Optimum impact load distribution to the flexible high-tensile steel mesh and anchors prevents puncturing and system failure.

Self-cleaning – low maintenance

Redirected rockfall is safely guided into the runout zone, allowing the rocks to be removed quickly in an area of easy access thus reducing costs.
