What is Soil Nailing?<\/h1>\n

Soil nailing is a slope stabilization method that uses a \u201ctop-down\u201d approach. Steel bars, called soil nails, are installed into the ground to create a reinforced structure that resists movement.\r\n\r\nAccess Limited\u2019s Nail Launcher\u2122 drives nails up to 20 feet long at speeds of 250 mph. Nails can also be drilled or driven, making the system adaptable to changing soil conditions.\r\n\r\nEach nail acts as a soil probe, providing real-time data for engineers. Soil nails perform well in seismic zones and can be paired with shotcrete or mesh facing for added strength and erosion control.<\/p>\n Contact Us Now<\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

Soil Nail Types<\/h2>\n

Self-Drilling Nails<\/strong> \u2013 Ideal for collapsing soils or active slides, offering high installation rates and strong pullout capacity.<\/p>\n

Open Hole Nails<\/strong> \u2013 Installed with grout that both drills and stabilizes the hole while bonding with surrounding soil, creating a reinforced column.<\/p>\n

Launched Nails<\/strong> \u2013 Fired into the slope at high velocity, providing exceptional shear strength and rapid installation for time-critical projects.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n\n\n
