Contractors continued working through recent rain, first row of hillside tiebacks drilled, testing set for January
Contractors continued working through this week’s rain on the hillside stabilization project along the railroad tracks in San Clemente, and they could be affected by more storms in the week ahead.
“With the recent king tides, the good news is that no notable movement was detected in the inclinometers,” Carpenter said. The inclinometers are electronic devices placed in the slope that transmit real-time measurements of any ground movement. A storm arriving Saturday is expected to bring up to 1.5 inches of rain to areas west of the mountains, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, with a chance of more rain later next week.
Progress so far includes the drilling of the first row of 104 tiebacks, Carpenter said. About 50 percent to 60 percent of those tiebacks have been stressed and locked off, with the rest of the row to be completed by mid-January. Excavation for the second, lower row of the two rows being installed will begin after the first row is completed.
