H ILFIKER MSE WALL SYSTEMS
Welded Wire Wall and
Eureka ReinforcedSoil (E.R.S.)

T he Hilfiker MSE System is a composite
mechanically stabilized earth structure,
designed for strength, durability and
ease of construction. The welded wire
mats reinforce thebackfill, providing
the tensile strength to make the
compacted soil a stable structure. The
superior pullout resistance of the wire
mesh allows a wide range of backfill
soils.
Properly installed, theHilfiker
MSE System is exceptionally stong,
resilient and economical.
B ackfill should preferably be select
granular material with a high frictional
strength. A lways follow your projectspecifications!

thebackfill from getting wet. U nder

no circumstances should the use
of wet backfill ever be permitted
within the M.S.E. structure.
