In this How-to Wednesday: How to use a 2-stage facing (temporary and permanent facing) on a soil nail wall model in SnailPlus Unlock the full potential of SnailPlus by mastering 2-stage facings on soil nail wall models. This guide shows how to effectively use both temporary and permanent facings, giving engineers control over reinforcement adjustments at each construction phase. Start with the temporary facing, reinforced on the “left” or “bottom” side for initial stability, and seamlessly integrate permanent facing with additional reinforcement in later stages. SnailPlus facilitates the seamless switch between facings, enhancing safety and efficiency. Adjustments to thickness, reinforcement spacing, and material selections allow for tailored structural behavior, ensuring your project meets required factors for each stage. Conduct comprehensive geotechnical checks, analyze shear and moment capacities, and adapt to project needs with ease. 👍Want to elevate your project workflow? 👉Visit our site and explore SnailPlus features #DeepExcavation #SnailPlus #GeotechnicalEngineering

Attention #geotechnicalengineers designing #soilnail #walls, don't use Bishop's method for soil nailing walls. I recently had a debate here on LinkedIn and challenged a bet of $10000 as proof that the produced circular #slopestability surface was not critical for a #soilnailwall. Well my bet was not taken, but the #engineer took up my offer to see what I had to say. An automatic search analysis with the #general-limit-equilibrium based on an evolution algorithm in our #SnailPlus software showed that the safety factors were closer to unity vs. a circular search giving more than 1.35 in from what I call a software program developed by people with no idea of how soil nail walls should be. There were more findings, but the bottom line is: You need the right tools and experience if you want better design results and minimize #geotechnical #risks. Don't go cheap on your arsenal! Follow Deep Excavation LLC, and get our soil nailing software program.

Riddle Me This: The River Dilemma You have just purchased three things at the local market: a wolf, a duck, and a bag of seeds. To get back home, you must travel across a river in a small boat. You are only allowed to have one item with you on your boat at any time. You cannot leave the wolf alone with the duck, because the wolf will eat the duck. You cannot leave the duck alone with the bag of seeds since the duck will eat the seeds. How many trips on the boat must you take to be able to get the wolf, duck, and bag of seeds across to the other side of the river safely? Share your thoughts down in the comments section. #EngineeringChallenge #Engineer #PDHengineer #RiddleMeThis
