Soil Nails For Slope Stabilization Projects in The Mid-Atlantic & Southeast

Does your current project need help with earth or slope stabilization? Then the soil nail experts here at UMA Geotechnical Construction are equipped to help. Soil nailing is an earth stabilization method that uses grouted tension resisting steel elements ( nails) designed for permanent or temporary support.  Our team uses soil nails to help stabilize slopes and landslides and provide earth retention for building excavations, plants, parking structures, tunnels, deep cuts, and repairing existing retaining walls.

Here are some quick benefits of choosing soil nails for your project:

• This equipment requires minimum shoring space
• Minimal impact to nearby properties
• Flexible technique
• Soil nailing equipment is portable for limited spaces
• Can be used to follow irregular curves
• & more!

Another foundation repair technique our contractors are well skilled in is installing rock anchors. Rock anchors generally consist of steel ( bars or strands) grouted in a drilled hole. A full-length hole is drilled through the soil and into the bond zone in soil or rock using casing if necessary. Thread bar or strand tension is then inserted into the hole, and the hole is filled with high-strength grout. After that, any casing that has been used is removed, and the bars or strands are tensioned to the rock surface.

Rock anchors are most often used to resist uplift forces on foundations, for excavation support, or as a part of permanent retaining walls.
