E-mail:Soil Nails
Soil nailing is an efficient, effective and economical method of earth reinforcement,
which allows a controlled improvement of the natural stability of the
soil. TITAN soil nails provide friction, shear and tension strength in
loose materials, combining all into a new monolithic structure:
- Stabilising slopes
- Stabilasing embankments
- Reinforced soil
- Fixing protective netting
Soil nailing consists of 3 basic elements:
- Existing soils or weathered rock.
- TITAN rotary grouted, self drilling soil nails.
- Surface treatment with reinforced shotcrete, geotextile mesh or tensioned wire nets on slopes to 70 degrees.
Advantages of soil nailing
- Installation is practically free from vibration.
- Drill rigs can install soil nails at all angles.
- As there is no requirement to case line the drill hole, most drill rigs installing TITAN soil nails are smaller and can cope well with slopes and confined spaces.
- Soil nailing offers the opportunity to produce an environmentally friendly but technically safe "green wall" solution, often less expensive than traditional back anchored retaining walls.
