Where applicable
Disaster management requires immediate repair of damages caused by
natural calamities like earth quake, cyclone, land slide, avalanche and
flood to protect life and property and earth filling is necessary for
restoration of normal life in the affected area.
Earthen wall is also necessary to divert flow of water and to block
water way. Earth fill is applied to repair broken dam or embankment and
similar cases.
Earth cover is necessary for coverage of garbage for quick consolidation
and vegetation, it also helps grow plants on the heap of boulders, where
establishment of vegetation is very difficult.
Temporary earth/sand walls are often made for defence and security
purpose.

Filling operation is very quick and to the point and wastage is minimum.
The filled bags may be dropped if necessary. The bags have very high
abrasion resistance and takes firm position having no chance of
slippage.
It is also easy to build a sand/earth wall of a considerable height with
the help of filled and closed bags stacking one on the other.
On earth cover in jute bags plants can grow healthily and trees can also
be planted for stabilization of garbage or dump of debris.
