Abstract
The article describes hydraulic engineering structures which are built in low-head water power hydro systems and which can also be used to stabilize river bank slopes. The paper gives information on the condition of riverbanks in Samara region and underlines the necessity to increase the amount of works on bank-stabilization. The paper stresses the importance of decreasing the expenses on building bank-stabilizing hydraulic engineering structures without any loss in their reliability and safety. Authors propose to build such structures using composite materials and their modifications and take geosynthetics, polymer-impregnated concrete and waste-/by-products as their constituents. The research also describes how the properties of composite materials change when they are modified for building hydraulic engineering structures.
