    • Cellular confinement structures are known which serve to increase the load bearing capacity, stability, and erosion resistance of infill materials which are placed within the cells of the system and can serve to protect underlying soils or as a protective layer over pond liners or other protective membranes. A challenge for channels and slopes includes the limitations of length of cellular confinement sections used upon slopes due to the cumulative forces of the weight of the infill contained by the cellular confinement section upon the welds that define the shape of expanded cell. Another challenge is that the fill material and the cellular confinement sections may be displaced during installation and long-term operation. The present disclosure relates to a device (24) that includes an insertion member (44), a shank (64), and a body (70) having a through-hole (92) and a post (82). The device (24) can be part of a cellular confinement system (14). A method of transferring load from an expanded cellular confinement structure (18) to a flexible tendon (78) includes inserting an insertion member (44) of a device (24) through an open slot (36) in the structure (18), inserting a tendon (78) through a through-hole (92) in the body (70) of the device (24), and wrapping the tendon (78) around a post (82) of the body (70). A kit includes a first unitary section of cells (20), at least one device (24), and at least one tendon (78) for securing the device (24) and the section (20) to allow transfer of load from the web (20) to the tendon (78).
