The slope includes a stable stratum and a filling soil stratum above the stable stratum. The three-dimensional drainage device includes a surface drainage mechanism, a shallow drainage mechanism and a deep drainage mechanism. The surface drainage mechanism includes one or more catchment canals arranged on an upper surface of the filling soil stratum and a pool arranged on an edge of the filling soil stratum. The shallow drainage mechanism includes one or more first collecting pipes. The deep drainage mechanism includes one or more drainage gabions and one or more second collecting pipes.

A drilling machine (10) for making an excavation in ground in a drilling direction that is substantially vertical, the drilling machine including: an anchor module (22) having at least one anchor element for preventing the anchor module from moving relative to the walls of the excavation in the drilling direction, the anchor module having a longitudinal direction that is substantially vertical; a drilling module (12) provided with cutter members, the drilling module being movable in translation relative to the anchor module in the drilling direction; and a movement device (50) arranged between the anchor module and the drilling module in order to move the drilling module in translation relative to the anchor module in the drilling direction. The machine is suspended from a lift cable (70) that is fastened to the drilling module (12).

A retaining wall can include wall blocks positioned to retain material against a rear side of the wall blocks. A method for supporting such a retaining wall method includes attaching at least one of the wall blocks to at least one ground-stabilizing base body supporting the wall blocks. The ground-stabilizing base body can include a flexible cable attached to the rear side of at least one of the wall blocks and to a portion extending rearward away from the rear side of at least one of the wall blocks.

Provided are a strip-type reinforcing material and a reinforcing material assembly having the same. The strip-type reinforcing material includes: strip bases extending in one direction and made of a flexible material; and resistance means protruding from respective upper and lower parts of the strip bases. Multiple resistance means are provided along the strip bases. The resistance means includes: a first resistance part protruding from the upper parts of the strip bases and having an opening being open in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the strip bases; and a second resistance part protruding from the lower parts of the strip bases and having an opening being open in an opposite direction to the opening of the first resistance part.

A soil stabilizer assembly may include a pipe with a first end, a second end, and a sidewall defining a hollow shaft extending between the first and second ends; a stabilizer connectable to the second end of the pipe with a hollow body and a plurality of extensions extending radially outward from the body; and a cap connectable to the first end of the pipe including a receiving portion for receiving the first end of the pipe and a plate extending across the receiving portion. The hollow body of the stabilizer may be configured to receive the second end at least a portion of the sidewall of the pipe therethrough. The receiving portion of the cap may be configured to receive the first end and at least a portion of the hollow shaft of the pipe therein. The hollow shaft, hollow body, and receiving portion may be coaxially arranged.
