Solutions

Our solutions address the full range of geohazard challenges—designed to restore safety, protect infrastructure, and prevent future failures.

  • Earth Retention – Design and construction of retaining walls, soil nails, and GCS® walls to stabilize slopes and support excavations.

  • Emergency Response – Rapid mobilization for landslides, rockfalls, scour, and other geohazards—often restoring access within days.

  • Foundations – Deep foundation systems, including micropiles and anchors, to support structures in difficult soil or access conditions.

  • Ground Improvement – Grouting, soil stabilization, and drainage techniques that strengthen the ground and control water movement.

  • Rockfall Mitigation – Scaling, mesh, drapery, and barrier systems that prevent loose rock from reaching roadways, railways, or facilities.

  • Bridges – Scour protection, abutment stabilization, and deep foundation solutions to safeguard bridge structures from erosion and failure.

Technology

We combine proven engineering with proprietary innovations and specialized equipment to deliver faster, safer, and more effective geohazard solutions.

  • Soil Nail Launcher™ – Fires nails into slopes at speeds up to 250 mph for immediate stabilization with minimal disruption.

  • Shotcrete – Sprayed concrete applied by robotic or manual methods to protect slopes and retaining structures.

  • Spider Excavators – All-terrain walking excavators capable of working on slopes up to 50°, eliminating the need for costly access roads.

  • RailJET® – Purpose-built system for geohazard mitigation in rail-adjacent or limited-access environments.

  • Horizontal Drains – High-speed installation of drains to relieve groundwater pressure and enhance slope stability.

  • Micropiles – High-capacity, small-diameter deep foundation elements ideal for restricted-access or unstable ground conditions.

Client Reviews

Geohazard Mitigation for Transportation in the Mid-Atlantic

Hey Jennifer,

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed working with you guys on [our project]. Under the circumstances with that big of a job, and traffic volume that was being detoured it was a little stressful, however you all were so easy to work with, it made my job easier! Just wanted to thank you and Ryan for keeping me informed weekly and sometimes daily. Sara did an amazing job with the drill pattern and the engineering side of things. Kyle is one of the best superintendents I have worked with, he is good to his guys and got a lot of work done due to his ability to plan ahead and coordinate. Great experience for me and I really enjoyed working with you all, looking forward to our next job sometime. Please let everyone on the crew know that I really appreciate all their hard work, pleasure meeting everyone!

THANK YOU!”

Geohazard Repair in Kentucky

GSI, thanks for another successful project. It is always nice to work with you and your field crews. We are currently experiencing flooding here in [this area], so I am sure we will be utilizing your services once again in the near future. The repair was “headache free” and that is very nice, to have a company and crew, come in do their job. You would be surprised how many contractors come in and are not as safety oriented and headache free as yours and for that reason, I am writing this email to let you know as a manager I appreciate the professionalism.
