River embankments, levees, and coastal dikes are often subject to important remediation and ground improvement works. Such actions will become increasingly important in the future: we have to consider the strategic position of such structures along urban shorelines and waterways together with the ongoing sea-level rising process. In this paper, the application of a permanent soil nailing on a long channel levee in Vianen (The Netherlands) is reported. The project was executed by a new developed but solid ground support method design, based on non-metallic glass fibre-reinforced polymer soil nails. It was featured, in addition, by other important challenges: a limited installation space setting, a vibration-free drilling method with strong noise reduction. Quick and easy installation, bending potential, materials non-degradable on long term, and potential of easy future cuts/new drillings are all keystones of the project.
