The housing developments near Sg. Choh in Selangor, Malaysia experiences high surface runoff, causing a significant increase in the river's water volume. This has led to severe erosion along approximately 200 m of the riverbank, posing a risk of collapse.

To make the project cost-effective and efficient in terms of logistics, a reinforced soil system utilizing the available on-site earth was chosen. The excavated residual soil, which has a high fines content, could be used as backfill material.
