What is Vertical Shoring?

Looking for a cost-effective and efficient trench support system? Vertical shoring is the answer! Learn how reticulated micropiles can save you time and money.

Vertical shoring is a method of supporting the walls of a trench or excavation using vertical supports, such as driven piling. However, this method can be expensive and noisy, and it may require easements or permissions from neighboring landowners. In contrast, arrays of reticulated micropiles provide an economic and effective shoring system without any easements or noise issues. These micropiles embed themselves past the cut face to an appropriate depth, creating a stable support system for the trench or excavation. As a general contractor, using reticulated micropiles can save you time and money while ensuring the safety and stability of your project.

Reticulated Micropiles

Reticulated micropiles are an innovative and cost-effective shoring solution that offer a range of benefits for general contractors. They are a practical alternative to traditional vertical shoring methods, offering increased stability and safety, without requiring any easements or disrupting the surrounding environment.

At their core, micropiles are small diameter piles, typically less than 12 inches in diameter, that are drilled and grouted into the ground. They are reinforced with steel, creating a strong structure that can withstand a range of environmental conditions. The micropiles are installed in a grid-like pattern, creating a stable support system that can handle a range of site conditions.

Micropiles offer increased stability and safety for any excavation or trench. They embed themselves past the cut face to an appropriate depth, creating a strong and stable support system. This increased stability helps to prevent accidents and ensures the safety of workers on the job site.

What are the Benefits of Using Reticulated Micropiles for Vertical Shoring?

• Cost-effective: They are a more affordable option compared to traditional methods, such as driven piling.
• No easements required: Since micropiles embed themselves past the cut face, there is no need for easements or permissions from neighboring landowners, saving you time and hassle.
• No noise issues: Using micropiles for vertical shoring ensures that your project does not violate any local noise ordinances, which could cause costly delays.
• Efficient: They can be installed quickly and efficiently, reducing the time it takes to complete your project.
• Increased safety: Provides a stable support system for your trench or excavation, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring the safety of your workers and site visitors.
