Technical Description:

  • Product: ArmorFlex® Class 50S
  • Area: 16,130 SF

One of the very first projects in California incorporating ArmorFlex in flood protection design was the Poway Creek project in 1988. With the success of this installation and other projects in the county, the Poway Redevelopment Agency (PRA) chose ArmorFlex as their hard-armor flood protection for Rattlesnake Creek.

In an effort to enhance landscaping around a future community site, the PRA chose hard armor as a simple and cost-effective solution. ArmorFlex Class 50S units were installed to allow for maximum vegetation, maintaining the aesthetics of the surrounding area. The ArmorFlex articulating concrete block mats will also provide flood protection around the proposed police station, library and park in San Diego County.
