Soil nails for slope stabilsation: Reinforced Earth offers TerraNail™, a highly developed, high-performance solution for installing passive soil nails, rock anchoring and stabilisation systems.
This solution is widely specified by geotechincal engineers for builders and earth workers to install adequate measures to ensure stability and take control of embankment soil and rock displacement, foundation instability, mass erosion and retention facing displacements.
The in-situ installation method involves installing soil nails within an engineered pattern of closely spaced inclusions which create an in-situ coherent gravity mass structure. Installation is straightforward:
- Solid or hollow, fully-threaded and optionally coated high tensile geotechnical steel bars are driven into soil, and are then encased in grout and secured to a surface – normally fastened to a stabilised facing element.
- Hardware accessories, including nails, nuts, plates, couplers and drill bits are furnished by Reinforced Earth in size, shape and quantity as required by the project details.
Both, plain drilling and self-drilling nail options are available from Reinforced Earth. The self-drilling TerraNail™ anchoring system is comprised of a threaded hollow bar with an attached drill bit that can perform drilling, grouting and fastening in a single operation.
Applications for TerraNail™
The TerraNail™ solution is used for both permanent and temporary stabilisation for all types of construction job sites and landscape development.
Stabilisation of existing conditions: used to stabilise existing slopes and embankments and mitigate the chance for embankment slides and structure overturning.
Stabilising new construction: used to stabilise new site conditions as a result of excavation required for widening existing embankments for road, bridge, railway, cut-and-cover structures and building basement expansions.
Natural hazard prevention and mitigation: TerraNail™ stabilisation mitigates the chance of occurance and effects of rockfall, soil mass displacement and erosion.
Strenthening and repair: used to repair and strengthen weathered foundations, displaced or loosened revetment, and failing retaining structures.
Barrier support: used to secure posts and fixtures for all types of defensive barriers and structure foundations.
Benefits
Seamless design and supply process
Seamless design and supply process
Performing as a geotechnical engineer, material supplier and offering installation support services gives the Terre Armee solution a single-source advantages over most alternatives.
