Permanent shoring installations become part of the permanent structure — which means your owner's structural engineer reviews the design, the materials, and the installation quality before accepting the scope. A specialty shoring sub without in-house PE capability creates an extended submittal cycle where three parties bounce the design back and forth before installation can begin.
GeoStabilization International provides permanent shoring as a design-assist specialty subcontract. Our geotechnical PEs prepare the wall design from your site's boring data, manage the submittal cycle with the owner's structural engineer, and stamp the final accepted design — eliminating the back-and-forth that delays your foundation schedule.
GeoStabilization International provides permanent earth retention subcontract services — from soldier pile design through tieback anchor installation and shotcrete facing — integrated into a single managed scope for infrastructure and commercial construction projects.
Permanent soldier pile walls with drilled-in steel soldier piles and lagging provide engineered earth retention for cut slopes, building excavations, and roadway embankments. GSI designs and installs both H-pile and pipe pile configurations to your site's loading conditions.
Permanent walls requiring lateral anchor support are designed by our engineers to coordinate the wall and tieback design into a single structural system. Tieback installation proceeds at each excavation lift level, keeping your excavation moving without a shoring hold.
Permanent soil nail walls are a cost-effective alternative to soldier pile systems in cohesive soils and fractured rock. Our Soil Nail Launcher™ installs nails at production rates that compress your facing and foundation schedule. GeoStabilization International handles both the nail installation and the structural shotcrete facing under one subcontract.
Permanent shoring designs that pass owner review on the first submission require an engineer who understands the wall loading, the soil profile, and the connection details the structural engineer will scrutinize. GeoStabilization International's geotechnical PEs have submitted permanent shoring designs to state DOT structures engineers, local building departments, and FHWA reviewers — they know what these reviewers require.
When the owner's structural engineer returns comments, our engineers respond directly — without routing through your PM or waiting for a contracted third-party engineer to engage. That direct response capability cuts the submittal cycle by one to two weeks on complex permanent shoring scopes.
