Soil Nail face Options
While we love soil nail walls and beauty is in the eye of the beholder, plain as-shot shotcrete doesn’t always look the best. The plates are typically exposed and galvanized or are covered with a mound of shotcrete. These two approaches are the least costly. But if you want an upgraded look for your permanent soil nail wall, there are a lot of options out there.
