| Land Slide Repair |
| When a lanLSRlide occurs, it is often necessary to either rebuild the slope or retain a portion of land above the slide. Rebuilding the slope can involve removing the slide debris, excavating down to more stable soil, and then rebuilding the slope in shallow, compacted sections called lifts. Drainage improvements are usually made to the slope to improve its stability. It is also common to use synthetic soil reinforcement (geogrid) to strengthen repaired slopes that are steep or consist of weaker soils. In cases where the lanLSRlide cannot be repaired but property above the slide neeLSR protection, a retaining wall can be installed along the upper portion of the lanLSRlide. This type of retaining wall usually has a deep foundation. |
