Soil Nail Walls with Shotcrete Facing
Reinforced soil nail walls with structural shotcrete facing for permanent slope retention and excavation support.
Understanding Soil Nail Walls with Shotcrete Facing
Reinforced soil nail walls with structural shotcrete facing for permanent slope retention and excavation support.
This technique is used in our services for:
Typical Applications
How It Works
Our proven methodology ensures consistent, high-quality results for every installation.
Excavation
Cut slope in 4-6 ft lifts to expose working face.
Drilling
Install soil nails at designed angle and spacing.
Grouting
Pump cement grout to bond nails to surrounding soil.
Shotcrete
Apply reinforced shotcrete facing with welded wire mesh.

Blasting & Boulder Busting
Controlled blasting breaks rock in a precise, predictable manner for excavation, scaling, access road construction, and geotechnical stabilization. When performed by trained specialists, blasting creates clean rock faces, removes hazardous overhangs, and improves slope geometry for long-term stability.
Cable Anchors
Cable anchors (also known as strand anchors or post-tensioned anchors) provide high-capacity reinforcement for slopes, retaining systems, cut faces, and rock masses. These anchors transfer load deep into competent ground, offering reliable, long-term stabilization.
Concrete/Sculpted Shotcrete Finishes
Sculpted shotcrete creates natural-looking rock surfaces on stabilized slopes, retaining walls, and landscape features. Artistic carving and staining transform functional shotcrete into aesthetic elements that blend with surrounding geology.
Draped Mesh Systems
Draped mesh systems control loose rockfall by capturing debris and guiding it downslope to a safe catchment area. Unlike pinned mesh, draped systems are not rigidly attached to the entire slope—allowing them to manage high volumes of material efficiently.
