Excavations, Retaining Structures and Slopes

Excavations, cuttings and natural slopes are where the stress state of the ground changes and where the safety of adjacent structures and site works is directly affected. We design support and stabilisation systems using limit equilibrium and numerical analyses, and verify solutions for landslide sites with back-analysis and monitoring data.

Excavation support systems

Design of cantilever and anchored pile walls and support elements for deep excavations; modelling of excavation stages with numerical analyses and assessment of effects on surrounding structures.

Projects in this area

Retaining structures

Design of permanent retaining walls and pile walls; assessment of earth pressures, overall stability and drainage conditions.

Projects in this area

Slope stability and landslides

Stability analyses of natural slopes, cuttings and embankments. For landslide sites: planning of surface and subsurface investigations, back-analysis to determine the slip surface and soil parameters, and design of stabilisation measures such as piles, barrettes and drainage.

Projects in this area

Geotechnical monitoring

Planning of monitoring programmes based on inclinometer and deformation measurements; interpretation of the results and comparison with design assumptions to decide on the required measures.
