been used instead of shotcrete. Bearing plates are then fixed to the heads of the soil
nails. The soil at the base of this first stage is then removed to a depth of about 3 to 6
feet. The installation process is repeated until the design wall depth is reached. The
finished soil nails produce a zone of reinforced ground.

SOIL NAILING
Soil nail concept: Unlike the ground anchor that stresses to "seal" the
ground, soil nail is "passive", that is, it develops tension only as the ground
deforms laterally. Soil nails are normally used to stabilise natural or
excavation slopes.

3) screws do not impart as much stress into the looser surface zones,
instead they only anchor in the competent material where the helices are.

Tiedback walls often use soldier beams, lagging, and tiebacks with a
precast or cast in place concrete permanent facing when required.
Soil nail walls become economical when the retained soils have a little
cohesion and when it may be expensive to install soldier
beams. Uncontrolled ground water can be a big problem when
constructing either tiedback or soil nail walls.
Both tiedback and soil nail walls are meant to be constructed from the
top down, in a cut situation.
If your wall is a fill or embankment wall, anchored walls are usually not
the best wall type. Try an MSE wall or conventional concrete wall.
Tiebacks can be made in most types of soil except soft clays and silts,
and in all types of rock. The capacity of the anchors in soil will vary
depending upon grain size and installation method. The denser,
granular soils will typically produce higher capacity tiebacks. We have
installed tiebacks with lengths in excess of 200 feet and tested
capacities of over 500 kip for landslide stabilization
The excavations work has left a 4.5 meter high 60 battered banking to
the rear of the proposed dwellings. The banking is to be retained by
driving 5 meter long steel nails into the ground at 1 meter centres.

once all the nails are in place they will be covered with a stone
wall.
Soil nailing 2
The basic principle of soil nailing is to place rebar into the
natural soil in an effort to increase its tensile strength and shear
strength. Soil nailing is used when the natural soil has adequate
compressive

Soil nailing is used when the natural soil has adequate compressive
strength, but low levels of tensile and shear strength. In this condition,
soil nailing serves to improve the load-bearing behavior of the natural
soil.
