Soil Nails
Soil nailing is a type of earth support that involves a series of drilled piles with a shotcrete facing.
The process begins by excavating down a 5-ft cut. Drilled piles are then laterally drilled into the soils as “soil nails”. Soil Nails are typically constructed to provide a bond for the full length of the nail.
Once the row of soil nails are drilled, a shotcrete facing is applied to the soils. Shortly thereafter, the next 5-ft cut is excavated and the process continues down to the bottom of the excavation.
