Excavation Stability and Neighbouring-Property Protection
Technical commentary by structural engineer Pablo Viadas discusses the use of anchors for excavation support and the importance of selecting an appropriate retaining system.
Watch the technical presentation below.
Comparing Excavation Support Methods
Conventional excavation support may use anchors, temporary retaining walls, soldier piles, diaphragm walls, shotcrete or sheet piles. The suitable system depends on ground conditions, neighbouring structures, construction sequence and project requirements.
SFS® retaining wall systems provide an alternative approach for site-specific engineering review.
Example of extensive temporary bracing. SFS® retaining systems offer an alternative configuration for engineering assessment.
Excavation stability depends on the design, construction and appropriate selection of the support system.
