The use of sub horizontal ground anchors with sheet pile or soldier beam shoring permits taller walls and deeper excavations than are possible with cantilever type construction–up to 35 feet or so depending on soil properties versus 15 feet
During the excavation process to produce a retaining wall soil nails form part of a passive system to reinforce and temporarily support the existing soil or weathered rock Soil nails hold the earth in place allowing for successful permanent retaining wall construction erosion control rock slope stabilization and landslide prevention
Before starting soil nail wall construction hold a preconstruction meeting to discuss the construction inspection and testing of the soil nail walls If this meeting occurs before all soil nail wall submittals have been accepted additional preconstruction meetings may be required before beginning construction of soil nail walls without accepted submittals The Resident or
