How the Soil Nail Launcher\u2122 Works<\/h2>\n

The Soil Nail Launcher\u2122 operates as a compressed air cannon, propelling a 1.5-inch (38mm) diameter, 20-foot (6.5m) long steel or fiberglass tube at an astounding speed of 250 miles per hour (400 kph) in a single shot. This revolutionary technology induces tensile stresses in each tube, counteracting compressive stresses induced by displaced soil, preventing nail buckling.<\/p>\n

The high-installation velocity creates a shock wave at the nail tip, displacing adjacent soil as the nail penetrates. Soil collapse onto the bar occurs in a relatively undisturbed state, resulting in pullout capacities up to 10 times that of traditional driven or vibrated rods or tubes. Moreover, soil nailing enhances soil density in the nailed area, a significant advantage over conventional open-hole drilling techniques.<\/p>\n

Launched Soil Nails can be perforated for horizontal drainage and pore water pressure relief, providing continuous axial capacity and drainage within the same element. Alternatively, perforated nails can be pressure grouted with various materials to enhance bond capacity and soil properties. Once pressure grouted, an epoxy-coated inner bar can be installed, creating robust, corrosion-resistant SuperNails\u00ae.<\/p>\n

The Soil Nail Launcher\u2122 is versatile, typically mounted on a modified tracked excavator but adaptable to vehicles, long-reach excavators, or crane basket frames. Weighing approximately 2 tons (1.8 metric tons), it is portable and capable of reaching remote locations. With full articulation, it navigates around overhead wires, underground utilities, and guard rails seamlessly.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
