Ground Anchors

• Permanent or transient options
• To permit prestressing, consider the bond length and free length.
• Bars: 4,500kN, 20,000 kips; strand: 15,900kN (+) 70,000 kips; capacities
• Strand anchors up to 61mm (+), and bar anchors with a diameter range of 25-75mm (1-3 inch).
• Full Infrastructure Intelligence compatibility, leveraging a variety of sensor types

• Pre-stressed ground anchors make a significant contribution to a structure’s stability over the course of its design life. The stability of the structure depends on how well the anchor performs.
• To pre-stress the anchor and lengthen the tendon, one uses stressing jacks. The anchor is closed off at the head once the required load has been attained. The structure is then subjected to a compressive load by the anchor to stop movement.
• To avoid loads being passed into unsuitable material and to allow for sufficient tendon elongation, the anchor is de-bonded from the earth between the structure and the load-bearing strata.
• The two essential components of the ground anchor—the free length and the bond length—are formed when the tendon directly bonds to the ground at the chosen depth.
• According to internationally recognised anchor design requirements, anchors used in permanent construction projects must be secured against corrosion. The anchor tendon is protected from corrosion by two separate barriers thanks to double corrosion protection (DCP).
