Enhance Slope Stability with Launched Horizontal Drains

When it comes to geohazard mitigation and slope stability, Launched Horizontal Drains stand out as an innovative solution designed to effectively relieve pore water pressure during transient high groundwater events. Unlike traditional drilled drains, Launched Horizontal Drains offer a unique combination of tensile and shear contribution, making them a superior choice for landslide repair and slope stabilization.

Launched Horizontal Drains excel in providing rapid relief from pore water pressure, a critical factor in mitigating geohazards. This capability significantly reduces the risk of landslides during high groundwater events.

Unlike traditional drilled drains that offer no tensile contribution, Launched Horizontal Drains provide both tensile and shear capacity simultaneously. This dual functionality enhances their effectiveness in stabilizing slopes and addressing various geological challenges.

The versatility of Launched Horizontal Drains is evident in their ability to be installed rapidly, with up to 200 drains per shift. Moreover, they can be spaced in multiple rows as densely as 2.5 feet on center, offering landslide repair practitioners an unprecedented level of control and precision in drainage system design.

Traditional drilled drains are typically spaced in a single row between 10 and 30 feet on center, limiting their drainage efficiency. Launched Horizontal Drains, on the other hand, set a new standard by providing both drainage capabilities and a tighter spacing array, addressing the limitations of existing systems.

Revolutionizing Geohazard Mitigation

Landslide repair practitioners now have the luxury of deploying a tightly spaced array of Launched Horizontal Drains, thanks to their rapid installation capabilities and innovative design. No other system currently available offers the same combination of tensile and shear capacity along with efficient drainage, making Launched Horizontal Drains a game-changer in the field of geohazard mitigation.

For unparalleled slope stability and effective geohazard mitigation, choose Launched Horizontal Drains. Experience the benefits of rapid installation, optimal spacing, and the unique capability to provide both tensile and shear contribution. Elevate your landslide repair efforts with a solution that sets a new standard in the industry, ensuring long-term stability and resilience against geological challenges.
