Alan,

Do I sense that they may have a problem with levels and think that this
would have a reduced profile.

Subject: cellular confinement systems and stability

  

Hello all,

Been asked for my opinion on an issue where developer's engineers are
refusing to install a cellular confinement system on the basis that it
will be unstable. Instead - and here's an irony - they want to remove
topsoil and install some kind of substrate instead. A no-dig dig system,
if you like.

Can't see how this makes sense and wonder what the experience of others
is? Is this a tenable argument or a cost-saving exercise? 

Thanks in anticipation,
