Shoring
As far as construction is concerned, it is important to know that not all aspects of it are permanent. This is because certain temporary measures need to be put in place to ensure that the building process is as safe as it can be, as well as to improve the speed at which people can work at. An example of these measures that need to be in place is shoring. Shoring is done to improve the stability of the site, specifically in an area with uneven surfaces. This is why it is very useful to use professional services like ours because we know how to put these measures in place.
Soldier Piles & Lagging Walls
When it comes to shoring, there isn’t a simple one size fits all shoring type. This is because different types of construction require different types of reinforcement. For example, soldier piles & Lagging walls are generally used with the sole purpose of retaining the soil while you fix your foundation walls or even construct new ones. As you can see, this method allows you to do the work without needing to remove all the soil, instead, we rather subdue it so that you aren't at risk while building. So if you need foundation work done, then contact us so we can get working on shoring.
Tieback Anchor System
As we have stated before, there are various types of shoring to consider, each for its own unique value. The tieback anchor system is primarily used to resist a lateral load to underpin the foundation before the excavation process begins. Depending on the conditions of the soil you are working on, this method can also be used simultaneously with the soldier pile system. There are even different tieback systems like the grouted tieback, helical tieback, driven tiebacks, and more. So if you are not sure which one you will need, then contact us to find out more about which method will be best suited to your needs.
Soil Nailing
When it comes to earth retention techniques, there aren’t many more effective methods than the soil nailing method. This method is most often used as additional support for retaining walls and for excavation support. Soil nails are typically between 4 to 6 inches in diameter and are spaced evenly apart. It is then reinforced with materials and a drainage system is installed to ensure that water flows freely. There are many benefits of this technique including stabilizing slopes, preventing landslides, and repairing retaining walls. So if you are not sure if this method is the right one for you, then reach out to us so that we can advise you accordingly.
