					<description><![CDATA[New Zealand has a very long coastline in proportion to its land mass, with approximately 15,000 kilometres of coastline, which is the 9th longest of any country in the world. This makes the country especially susceptible to the effects of coastal erosion, with frequent storm events causing major land loss and affecting state highways and private property.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[What is extensible reinforcement in a bridge abutment or MSE Wall? It sounds like we are trying to build with some stretchy rubbery product. However Inextensible reinforcement sounds more like it. Nice and strong, and it won’t stretch. Now is that the case?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The use of geogrids in pavements and foundations is well established now and the benefits would be known by most engineers and roading contractors. However, are you clear on which geogrid type to use, and whether a triaxial or a biaxial geogrid will be best for your application?]]></description>
