Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Walls
A gravity type retaining wall composed of alternating compacted fill and reinforcement attached to a facing that prevents erosion. Its stability mechanism relies on the interaction (friction and tensile forces) between the fill and the reinforcement, and it provides better aesthetics and
performance under seismic loadings than RC retaining walls.
Soil Nailing and Shotcreting
Soil Nailing is a practical and proven technique that serves as a means of passively reinforcing the soil to make it more stable by reinforcing the ground with small diameter rebars known as “nails“ protected with a structural facing.
Shotcreting is a method used to apply concrete or mortar at relatively high speeds onto a surface that unifies with the surface forming a stable, durable and continuous layer.
Tie-back MSE
Help control and support slopes or soil on inclines. This technology combines soil reinforcement and a facing system to provide support.
Erosion Control (Concrete Canvas, Erosion Mat, Geocell, Coconet)
Involves the implementation of diverse techniques and measures aimed at mitigating or lessening soil erosion and sediment loss resulting from natural processes such as wind, water, or human activities.
