Abstract:
A geogrid sand fence for depositing matter moved by wind currents and related methods, are provided. A geogrid sand fence for the control of sand or other particulate matter movement can include support members carrying a fencing material. The fencing material can include a High Density Polyethylene geogrid mesh material having apertures distributed to provide approximately a 50% porosity to maximize sand deposit volume. The geogrid mesh material has sufficient structural weight to be employed with a height of approximately two meters, which can be adjusted to maintain maximum effectiveness.
