Soil Reinforcement 3.1

In recent years, soil-nailing techniques have been widely employed for many soil reinforcement projects, including temporary excavation, soil foundations beneath existing structures or abutments for bridge widening projects. Using soil-nailing techniques to reinforce earth walls saves time and money on highway construction projects. Over several years, Engineers at the Caltrans Division of Materials and Foundations developed a complex soil nailing program, referred to as SNAILZ. Initially, the program was written in DOS, which is a text-based operating system that is now rarely, if at all, used on desktop computers. Engineers had attempted to convert the program to operate in Windows with little success. Subsequently, DRI developed a Windows version of the program, referred to as SNailZWin. It supports all Windows environment: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. Adding customer-requested enhancements have made the Windows version much more user friendly.
