Initial situation There had been several cases of rockfall and landslides in the trek route of theHoly Shrine of Mata Vaishno Devi. Therefore, the Shrine Board decided toactively stabilize the 75º and higher steep slope, up to a maximum height of 70 min this section. A protective measure had to be selected to stabilize the exposedcutting against superficial instabilities, tilting as well as sliding of individual blocksand rockfalls.
Description The flexible slope stabilization system consists of TECCO® G65/3 high-tensile steelwire mesh and QUAROX® rolled cable net, system spike plates and soil nails hasbeen selected. Spike plates which match the load capacity of the mesh serve tofix the mesh to soil or rock nails. By tensioning these nails, and recessing thespike plates into the ground, the mesh is adequately tensioned to ensure itfollows the surface contours.
Based on the survey results, the authorities also decided to apply a rockfallprotection barriers from Geobrugg. With its ring nets made of high-tensile steelwire the barrier design has been tested and approved to absorb impact energiesof up to 8000 kJ. A total number of 15 barriers were installed in differentlocations with energy absorption capacity ranging from 3000 kJ up to 8'000 kJ.
