Moore Construction successfully delivered slope stabilisation works for the Jade Lake Development, which involved the installation of 64 permanent ground anchors and the application of approximately 55m³ of shotcrete. The project required excavation to a depth of 12.5m adjacent to a recently constructed residential building, carried out in 3m vertical stages. Each stage was stabilised using a combination of permanent anchors and shotcrete to ensure face stability during and after excavation.
The scope included the construction of 64 permanent RB25 anchors, each drilled to depths between 5m and 12m with a 120mm bore diameter. Anchors were installed in four horizontal rows, each row spaced at 3m vertical intervals. Once anchoring was complete, a 150mm thick layer of shotcrete was applied to the exposed excavation face for structural reinforcement.
Custom tooling required for anchor installation was fabricated in Moore Construction’s in-house manufacturing workshop. The construction methodology followed a staged excavation approach, integrating anchor installation and shotcrete application progressively to maintain slope stability throughout.
Upon completion, a detailed handover package was provided to the client, including all construction records, as-built drawings, technical documentation, and maintenance procedures, ensuring a clear transition to the operational phase and long-term performance of the system.
