A Review of Soil Nailing

Abstract

Foundation failure can cause the building to fall down. Repair of defects in foundations are most difficult and very costly, so it is most significant to understand the types of foundation failure to avoid them by taking required steps before construction starts. The main aim of this research is to bring soil stability in area where landslides might be a problem by inserting carbon rods in place of steel reinforcement bars in yellow type soil. Carbon fiber reinforced polymer, carbon fiber reinforced plastic or carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRP, CRP, CFRTP or often simply carbon fiber, or even carbon), is an extremely strong and light fiber-reinforced plastic which contains carbon fibers.
