Soil Nail

Visual Slope is able to perform stability analyses for soil nail/tieback design.  A soil nail can consist of a bonded section only, or an unbonded section that is followed by a bonded section.  The bonded section is the section with grout.

If only a few soil nails need to be added in the profile, the user can draw soil nail similar to drawing profile lines.  Use the Unbonded button to draw unbonded sections and Bonded button to draw bonded sections.  Each soil nail must have a bonded section.

The maximum number of soil nail should not exceed 40.
