International Classification:
E02D 17/20, E02D 17/18, E02D 29/02, E01C 1/00
US Classification:
404 72, 405262
Abstract:
A system and method are provided for increasing the width of an existing roadway. The system incorporates a reverse-oriented retaining wall and soil nail supports. The retaining wall is formed by a first set of soil nails, wire mesh material, and one or more geotextile material layers. An alternate embodiment forms the retaining wall with a plurality of concrete blocks stacked and spaced to form a block wall. The blocks are mounted over the first set of nails and can be filled with mortar. Backfill material fills a gap between the existing sloping surface and the retaining wall. A second set of soil nails can be provided for additional subsurface support. An upper surface of the backfill material can be paved to form the extended roadway width. The cantilevered configuration of the reverse-oriented retaining wall provides a solution for a less costly retaining wall structure. This reverse-oriented retaining wall is also easier to install than traditional vertical retaining walls that may have to be installed at greater vertical and lateral distances from the existing roadway.

System And Method For Soil Stabilization Of Sloping Surface

US Patent:
7384217, Jun 10, 2008
Filed:
Mar 29, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/693586
Inventors:
Robert K. Barrett - Grand Junction CO, US
Albert C. Ruckman - Palisade CO, US
International Classification:
E02D 17/20
US Classification:
4053027, 4053024, 405 15, 4053026
Abstract:
A system and method are provided for promoting vegetation growth on a steeply sloping surface. The system of the present invention includes anchors that are secured to the sloping surface, an inner mesh layer in contact with the slope, a geosynthetic layer placed over the inner mesh layer, and seeded compost material placed in the gap or space between the geosynthetic layer and the inner mesh layer. An outer mesh layer is placed over the geosynthetic layer to help stabilize the geosynthetic layer. The geosynthetic layer and outer mesh layer are also secured to the protruding anchors. Vegetation grows in the compost material and roots of the vegetation penetrate the inner mesh layer into the slope. An established root system stabilizes the slope. The seeded compost material provides an environment that greatly enhances the growth of vegetation on steeply sloping surface which otherwise do not have adequate soil to promote growth.

Independently Adjustable Facing Panels For Mechanically Stabilized Earth Wall

US Patent:
5456554, Oct 10, 1995
Filed:
Jan 7, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/178834
Inventors:
Robert K. Barrett - Grand Junction CO
George Hearn - Boulder CO
Henrie Henson - Mt. Littleton CO
Michael L. McMullen - Denver CO
Assignee:
Colorado Transportation Institute - Denver CO
International Classification:
E02D 2902
US Classification:
405284
Abstract:
A retaining wall has at least two facing panels in a tier adjacently interconnected by at least a pair of panel interconnectors mounted to the inner surfaces of the panels to allow adjacent panels to rotate relative to each other. Horizontal flexible anchoring devices, which include rigid anchors flexibly or rigidly connected to the panel interconnectors, connect the facing panels to an earth mass. The panels may tilt, or horizontally deform, relative to deformations in the earth mass. Front horizontal panel adjustment devices allow the tension of the connection between the flexible anchoring devices and the panel interconnectors to be varied from the front of the wall to allow horizontal alignment of the panels after the earth wall has been built. An adjustable inner panel supports the facing panels prior to the start of earth wall construction. Geofabric layers, independent of the flexible anchoring, are used during construction to stabilize the earth wall.

Method And Apparatus For Creating Soil Or Rock Subsurface Support

US Patent:
7226247, Jun 5, 2007
Filed:
Dec 18, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/741951
Inventors:
Robert K. Barrett - Grand Junction CO, US
Albert C. Ruckman - Commerce City CO, US
International Classification:
E21D 20/00
US Classification:
4052595, 173 90, 405232
Abstract:
A subsurface support includes a protective outer member that encases an interior support member. The inner support member may typically be a steel or iron rod which is held within the outer tube as by grout or cement. The outer tube is preferably emplaced by forcing the outer tube into the ground by use of a launching device. The distal end of the outer tube is pointed thus allowing easier penetration of the outer tube into the ground. The subsurface support may be used in numerous functional ways to provide support for an overlying man made structure, or to stabilize surrounding rock and soil. The support can be used in compression, tension, bending, and/or shear.

Subsurface Platforms For Supporting Bridge/Culvert Constructions

US Patent:
6890127, May 10, 2005
Filed:
Dec 23, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/745902
Inventors:
Robert K. Barrett - Grand Junction CO, US
Albert C. Ruckman - Commerce City CO, US
International Classification:
E02B003/04
US Classification:
405 73, 405229
Abstract:
A scour platform to prevent scour of a moving body of water is constructed by placing an excavation adjacent to the body of water. The excavation is spaced laterally from the body of water and extends up or downstream a desired length. A stabilizing sheet material covers the bottom of the excavation. Aggregate is placed within the excavation over the sheet material, and a free end of the sheet material is then folded back over the upper surface of the emplaced aggregate. Any remaining gaps between the excavation and the sheet material may be backfilled and compacted as necessary. The scour platform is completed once the free end of the sheet material is folded back over the aggregate. For additional prevention of scour, micropiles may be emplaced between the scour platform and the body of water.
