A rockfall barrier is a type of protective structure designed to prevent or mitigate the impact of falling rocks from hillsides, cliffs, or steep slopes. These barriers are commonly used in areas where there is a risk of rockfalls, such as mountainous regions, roadways, and construction sites. The primary purpose of a rockfall barrier is to intercept and catch falling rocks before they can reach roads, buildings, or other vulnerable structures, thereby enhancing safety for people and property.
