Geovert at Hoover Dam - Safety and Accountability at an Iconic Site
Geovert has been delivering rockfall mitigation and geotechnical services at the Hoover Dam for the US Bureau of Reclamation since 2019. This case study looks at what working at one of the world's most recognised infrastructure sites demands, and what years of sustained performance there demonstrates about how our team operates.
What Good Looks Like: Design Build Highwall Stabilisation
A multiple bench scale instability at Rio Tinto's West Angelas iron ore mine blocked access to high-grade ore below. Geovert's design-build approach used top-down rope access construction to install an anchored mesh system to safely stabilise the highwall.
What Good Looks Like: Fremont Canyon Design and Construct Rockfall Protection
Replacing 60-year-old rockfall barriers at Fremont Canyon required working within location constraints that defined every solution, from the custom lower barrier to the zip-line system that removed 700 cubic yards of debris.
Geotechnical Access Innovation: The Waikato River Bridge Soil Nails Project
When Hamilton's new Waikato River Bridge required slope stabilisation on a sheer 30-metre embankment above New Zealand's longest river, Geovert developed the country's first crane-suspended drilling platform for geotechnical construction.
