Slide Repairs
Hill slides occur more often than most people would like. In the event of a hill slide Golden State Shoring has the ability to act quickly and repair the damaged hillside while also ensuring that additional damage does not occur. From installing specialty netting to drilling nails into the soil to help stabilize the soil, Golden State Shoring has the tools and expertise required to tackle any major issue.
Soil Nails
Soil nails play a pivotal role in hillside stabilization, providing an effective and efficient solution to mitigate the risk of slope instability. These specialized geotechnical reinforcements involve the insertion of steel bars or rods into the hillside, creating a stable and reinforced structure. The process typically includes drilling into the slope, inserting the nails, and securing them with grouting or other materials. This innovative technique enhances the overall cohesion and strength of the soil, preventing erosion and potential landslides. Soil nails are particularly valuable in challenging terrains where traditional retaining walls may be impractical or costly.


Hillside Shotcrete
Hillside shotcrete is a specialized construction technique employed for the stabilization and protection of slopes and embankments. In this process, a mixture of cement, aggregates, and water, known as shotcrete, is pneumatically projected onto the hillside's surface. This application creates a durable, high-strength layer that adheres to the natural contours of the slope, effectively preventing soil erosion and minimizing the risk of landslides. Hillside shotcrete is particularly advantageous in challenging terrains, providing a flexible and versatile solution for stabilizing slopes with irregular shapes or difficult access. The sprayed concrete application reinforces the hillside but also offers a quick and cost-effective method for enhancing slope stability.
Hillside Netting
Hillside netting is a crucial component of slope stabilization and erosion control, designed to provide effective support in challenging terrains. Consisting of a durable mesh material, such as geosynthetic fabrics or biodegradable netting, it is strategically installed on slopes to prevent soil erosion and promote vegetation growth. The netting acts as a protective layer, securing the soil and preventing the displacement of sediment, especially in areas prone to landslides or steep inclines. Beyond its erosion control benefits, hillside netting also facilitates the establishment of vegetation by creating a stable environment for plant growth. This environmentally friendly solution is widely employed in landscaping, construction, and restoration projects to enhance the resilience and sustainability of hillsides while minimizing the impact of erosion.
