Yes, especially in soft or water-logged soils where retaining systems are crucial during excavation.

Sheet piling involves driving prefabricated sheets into the ground to form a retaining wall. It’s fast, reusable, and ideal for temporary excavation supports.

Sheet piling is better suited for softer soils. For rocky soils, alternative methods like secant or diaphragm walls may be more effective.

Shotcreting is the process of spraying concrete onto surfaces using high-pressure nozzles. It’s used for slope stabilization and retaining walls.

Shotcrete is durable and highly resistant to weathering, making it suitable for Bangalore’s moderate climate.

Soil nailing involves reinforcing soil slopes or excavations by inserting steel bars (nails) and covering with shotcrete for stability.

Commonly used in highway cuttings, basements, flyover approaches, and hilly construction areas around the city.

Common methods include well-point systems, deep wells, and sump pumping.
