GeoStabilization International® provided a slope stabilization solution during the construction of New State Route 48 near Lawrenceburg, Indiana. While excavating nearby slopes, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) encountered a zone of weak lacustrine clay deposits, which caused a series of shallow landslides that rippled from the toe (base) to the top of the slope.
GeoStabilization International® designed and installed a mechanical buttress at the slope’s toe and completed minor filling behind it to prevent future slope failures. INDOT appreciated this cost-effective solution that focused on stabilizing the toe of the slide. This project continues to hold strong in the years since its completion.
