Private houses דף הבית / Private houses / "Professionals, clear, creative solutions for every challenge, every requirement was answered quickly and professionally. If I had to rate from 1 to 10, the score in all parameters would be 10. Following your advice, our savings in the project were hundreds of thousands of shekels" Elad Biton, Director of Gedera Municipality Planning One of the critical parts of the process of planning and building a private house is the correct characterization of the soil and the provision of instructions for the execution of the foundations of the building. Proper planning of the foundations prevents cracking of the structure on the one hand and reduces the construction cost on the other. The right soil engineering solution can save hundreds of thousands of shekels in its execution! Work steps: Conducting a soil survey according to the type of soil expected in the lot Trial drilling in soils or geological survey in rocky soil Providing instructions for establishing the building in accordance with the architectural plan Development of the plot and supervision during execution.

Soil consultant A soil engineering consultant protects you and your interests vis-a-vis the professionals who are going to build your house: the consultant analyzes the nature of the soil and recommends how to establish the infrastructure to prevent drifting or subsidence of the building in the future. There is no legal obligation to hire the services of a soil and foundation consultant, and since the building engineer (construction engineer) should provide a response in this area as well, it is certainly possible, and even recommended, to hire such consulting services separately. To understand better, we have put together a short guide for you: How to choose a land consultant . Why should you hire Yuger services as land consultants? Eng. Yuger, born in 1950, graduated from the New York Polytechnic Institute with a B.Sc (1976) in civil engineering and an M.Sc (1978) in soil engineering. and over 30 years of experience in the field of soil foundation - as a lecturer, a member of national standardization committees and of course in hundreds of consulting and accompaniment projects in the private, industrial and public sectors and accompanied by a team of soil engineers, civil engineers and geologists and additional operational staff. The content of the land and foundation consulting service will be a land survey, an examination of the environment, initial advice on the nature and depth of the foundations for the foundation, as well as actual accompaniment of the works in the field. When choosing a land consultant, it is recommended to pay attention to - certified land consultant - ask to see the consent certificates. Academic background and in particular mastery of Israeli and international regulations, laws and standards. Seniority and proven professional experience including references. Specific experience for the type of infrastructure planned. Legal and technical support.

Development of neighborhoods in Beit Shemesh Development of several neighborhoods in Beit Shemesh on complex and problematic soil The challenge: Development of the "glasses neighborhood" and neighborhoods D. 1-4 built by the Ministry of Construction. The soil in Beit Shemesh is complex, problematic and contains chalky and marlstone areas. The marlstone areas are problematic due to the widespread of the sliding phenomenon in them. The solution: In chalky areas, the foundations used were usually based on micro-files or regular piles. On the other hand, the marlstone, which is a weak rock with swelling potential, requires deep foundation with piling machines as well as treatment of slope sliding. These factors made the solutions more expensive and complicated.

Soil anchors A soil anchor is a safety addition to buildings and construction processes, hence the importance of the anchor component as complex and unusual construction elements and their geotechnical and constructive aspects. Soil anchors are used to stabilize buildings and to transfer loads from the front and surface to the depth of the ground. The soil anchor was developed as a modern solution for temporary strengthening of the soil and when it is necessary to carry out a deep excavation near existing buildings and/or to great depths that require the use of retaining walls. The anchor makes it possible to strengthen the lining walls and prevent collapse and in a way of transferring and distributing the loads in depth and width. From a review of the Israeli standards and general and special specifications such as TI 940 part 4.2, it appears that these elements constitute a complex category, which includes a constructive aspect on the one hand, and a geotechnical aspect on the other hand. Engineer Moti Yuger, owner and CEO of Yuger Soil Consultants, explains: "Every year in Israel about -20,000 anchors are used, in many and varied projects. Most of the anchors (about 95%) are temporary anchors, replaced during construction by permanent structural elements, such as ceilings. The rest (about 5%) are permanent anchors that are supposed to be used for the entire length of the structure's existence, which reaches 120 years in public projects" (Yuger consultants, soil anchors in Israel - vision and reality). Hence its great centrality in complex construction processes and their geotechnical and constructive consequences. The soil anchor Soil anchors are used in a variety of applications including: walled excavations for basements, in places where open excavations are not possible, due to considerations of space and risk to buildings and infrastructure, a means of protection against sliding of slopes, to receive the troubles expected from the planned construction such as dynamic forces caused by wind and earthquake disturbances, as well as lifting forces caused by Underground construction, below the groundwater level. Sometimes the excavation is open and when it comes to excavation near an existing building and sometimes closed excavation under an existing building (for example digging a parking lot or basement) and for the benefit of strengthening the building against collapse or in a wide variety of needs such as, "walled excavations for basements, in places where open excavations are not possible, due to space considerations and risk to buildings and infrastructures, a means of protection against landslides, to receive the expected inconveniences from the planned construction such as dynamic forces caused by wind and earthquake disturbances, as well as uplift forces caused by underground construction, below the groundwater level". In essence, soil anchors are used as a safety supplement in the construction process and therefore in 2011, a detailed Israeli standard was issued for the first time, dealing with soil anchors, TI 940 part 4.2, called "Geotechnical design: strengthening and stabilization of buildings for engineering purposes - soil anchors made of piles". This standard is defined as a recommended standard, which is not legally binding (unless it is determined as such in another legal framework, which adopts it as binding)" . "Soil anchors have been used for years in the construction industry to stabilize buildings, slopes, retaining walls, dam piers, and more. The primary and most important purpose of a soil anchor is to transfer forces from the front of the building to a stable area in the subsoil. This stability is achieved through a significant increase in the normal forces acting on the planes potential destruction. Treading the soil anchors for labor required in advance, may reduce future displacements of the anchored structure. Soil anchor alternatives should take into account the advanced technology used to recruit relatively high labor forces, while immediately checking the short-term and long-term endurance" (Wikipedia). In planning and characterizing the soil anchors, a number of technical and environmental indicators are taken into account, such as the type of soil, groundwater levels in the immediate area, nearby buildings, the type of soil and its coefficient of density and weight, and more. Soil anchors can be a horizontal ground anchor or a vertical ground anchor and according to the strengthening requirements of the structure in question and have been found to be effective in a wide variety of soil types and uses. The depth of the anchor should be at least 15 meters and the average anchor can support up to 120 tons of weight and its load distribution is about 12 square meters from the retaining wall. Soil anchor types Soil c hemical anchor - an anchor that differs in the type of material from which it is produced and the production method in the field based on injection, mixing or capsule (mixing materials from containers). Mechanical anchor - an anchor whose locking is done by screwing or closing a nut head. Another division is the way the anchor is used: Temporary soil anchors - used to support decking walls for an acceptable limited period of up to 24 months (subject to the 940.4.2 standard). At the end of the castings, the load passes from the anchors to the ceiling and the walls and anchors themselves are practically disconnected. Retractable soil anchors - function similarly to temporary anchors, but at the end of the work they are pulled out of the ground and in accordance with various space and environmental limitations. Fixed soil anchors - long-term permanent support of the structure for a period of at least 120 years (subject to TI standard 940.4.2). Relying on fixed anchors is required in the absence of support alternatives such as ceiling and walls and they are made of reinforced materials and protection against corrosion and more. Polymer soil anchors - the use of polymer is intended to enable future excavation and soil drilling in the construction area and for example in the future planning of transportation tunnels for trains or vehicles. The anchor itself is a temporary ground anchoring solution and is not used for long-term support of the upper structure. Other anchors - soil anchors such as rock screws or earth nails and more. It is important to note that choosing between a mechanical or chemical soil anchor varies and depends on many different variables and as a result of the intended use as permanent or temporary. Possible failures in soil anchors Anchors are a complex mechanical element in its structure, in the way it is installed and in the way it functions and in the existing length of the structure. Failures in anchors can be due to the following reasons: Inadequate design of the support system, which includes the anchor + the constructive element it supports (conventional wall, reinforced concrete façade, bridge, etc.). An area under the responsibility of the planning team, mainly. Failure in the structure of the anchor itself, on its various components, which includes mechanical components, protections against corrosion, drilling and installation of the anchor. This area, for the most part, is the responsibility of the anchor contractor. Failure to test the anchor and guide it, including full monitoring of the anchor. Anchors develop relatively high service tolerances for each anchor. This makes it possible to reduce the number of anchors per square meter of wall façade and makes them more economical than other anchoring methods. This advantage is accompanied by a disadvantage, since the system has lower redundancy, due to the fact that failure of a single anchor may create progressive failures in the anchors .

Etz Efraim building A second opinion for the project of a house built above 10-14 m of uncontrolled fill, and a solution that financially enabled the execution of the project. The challenge: The project entered the execution phase of piling drilling but encountered a problematic soil section consisting of a deep fill that did not enable the implementation of the solution given by the previous consultant. The solution: 2 execution solutions were given, the first - deep foundation while taking care of the landslides that occur during the execution and the second - stiffening the fill with a network of concrete columns and basing the structure on a barge (raft). The project was carried out successfully.
