Soil Nailing & Rock Bolting
Permanent ground anchoring that binds unstable slopes together.
Permanent ground anchoring that binds unstable slopes together.
Steel nails — typically 3 to 12 metres long — are drilled and grouted into the slope face at calculated spacing. Each nail anchors through the failure plane into stable ground behind, binding the mobile mass to the stable mass.
A facing system — shotcrete, high-tensile mesh, or bearing plates — distributes the load across the face. The result is a reinforced slope that performs as a single, stable structure rather than layers of material waiting to separate.
Active slips and slope failures requiring permanent stabilisation to prevent further movement.
Civil and infrastructure projects where cut slopes need reinforcement to remain stable long-term.
Reinforcing ground behind retaining walls to reduce lateral pressure and improve wall performance.
Residential properties and commercial sites where bank erosion or instability threatens structures or access.
Our rope access and drilling capability means we can install soil nails on faces that exclude conventional machinery. Steep coastal bluffs, vertical road cuttings, inaccessible hillside properties — if the engineering says it needs nailing, we can get there.
Every installation is documented with pull-test records, grout records, and PS3 producer statements. The engineering gets the verification it requires, and you get the paper trail for consent and sign-off.
