Abstract

Riverbanks, often vulnerable to erosion and slope instability, face increased risks due to extreme flood events triggered by rapid urbanization and climate change. Our study introduces a novel solution, the Percussion Driven Earth Anchor (PDEA), in conjunction with articulated concrete blocks (ACB), for slope repair and stabilization. This innovative approach not only ensures satisfactory flow capacity but also offers long-term slope stability and surface erosion protection. Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) adopted such a slope stabilization approach for slope stability mitigation along the Clear Fork Trinity River at Interstate Highway 20 (IH-20) in Benbrook, Texas. A comprehensive laboratory and field test and instrumentation program was conducted to study the performance of the new soil anchor system. The results provide a viable solution to riverbank repair against the impact of extreme flood events.
