The Importance of Lateral Support

Lateral support is a critical aspect of construction, especially in areas with potential horizontal pressures from soil, water, or adjacent structures. Without robust lateral support solutions, buildings and infrastructure are vulnerable to tilting, leaning, or even collapse, posing significant safety risks and compromising the overall project.

Rockfall Protection

Rockfall protection is designed to mitigate the risks associated with rockfalls and landslides. From mesh systems to barriers and nets this protect roads, railways, buildings, and lives from rockfall hazards, ensuring safety and peace of mind.

Sheet Piling

Sheet piling offers robust earth retention and water tightness for excavations. These interlocking steel sheets provide support for retaining walls, cofferdams, and marine structures, preventing soil movement and ensuring structural stability.

Shoring

Shoring provides essential earth retention for excavations, ensuring safety and structural integrity. This technique is used in trench support, building foundation stabilization, and temporary excavation support, preventing soil collapse and movement.

Soil Nailing

Soil nailing is an innovative technique we utilize to enhance slope stability and provide earth retention. Ideal for steep slopes and retaining walls, soil nailing offers a cost-effective, efficient method for preventing soil movement and ensuring the safety of nearby structures.
