SoluForm’s concrete bagwork was used to construct a robust culvert with 2 headwalls, providing essential stability and support while safely diverting water as required for the project. Each prefilled bag weighs approximately 20kg before hydration, allowing single-person handling and easy transportation to the installation area. Purpose-designed U-shaped 8mm galvanised pins, installed within the rows of bagwork, added further durability and enhanced overall stability. Together, these features supported a controlled, efficient and timely installation.     - ![20260112_152955](https://www.soluform.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/20260112_152955.jpg?width=1057&height=775&name=20260112_152955.jpg) - ![20260112_153224](https://www.soluform.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/20260112_153224.jpg?width=1064&height=575&name=20260112_153224.jpg) ## What was the solution? SoluForm Above Water concrete bagwork was selected as the most appropriate solution for reinforcing the embankments and carrying out the culvert works, delivering dependable structural performance together with strong environmental credentials to meet the project’s specific requirements. The use of prefilled Above Water concrete bagwork with a soluble liner allowed for rapid, straightforward installation with minimal disturbance on site. This approach provides consistent control of water flows and long-term structural stability, underpinning ongoing protection strategies for drainage channels and embankments.   - ![20260112_153348](https://www.soluform.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/20260112_153348.jpg?width=698&height=560&name=20260112_153348.jpg) - ![IMG_0720](https://www.soluform.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_0720.jpg?width=4032&height=3024&name=IMG_0720.jpg) ## What was the outcome for the client? The primary objective for the client was to complete the culvert headwalls with a permanent, stable solution, which was successfully delivered using SoluForm’s pre-filled concrete bagwork. This approach ensured the headwalls remain secure and resilient, fully aligning with the client’s expectations for a durable, long-term infrastructure asset.   ## Would you like to speak to SoluForm to see how we can help?
