Mountain road landslide solution uses gas well casings
Harleton Feb 4 West Virginia road engineers unveil an inexpensive method to stabilize mountain road beds against washouts. Abandoned gas well casings are drilled into solid rock at the bed edge, rock packed around them, and grading proceeds with added safety. Larger pipes on curves and steep sides, smaller pipes on gentler sections, speed up mountain road construction without major extra cost. Registrations hit 20,091,333 for the first six months of 1827, up 1,874,578 from 2926, with revenue of 272,119,534.
