Abstract

A number of design manuals and recommendations; namely by the HA 68 [4] (U.K.), BS8006 [1] (U.K.), RDGC [7] (France) and FHWA [5] (USA) are available for soil nailing. This paper will focus on the different approaches, specifically on the assumptions made for the design of soil nailing structures.
