An essential system for the stability of your structures.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div> Soletanche Bachy uses ground anchors for the construction or repair of structures, mainly, but not exclusively, for support of excavation works.<\/p>\n<\/div> A ground anchor is a system capable of transmitting a tensile load into a competent stratum, drawing support from the structure to be anchored. A ground anchor is therefore always carefully treated, as it contributes to structural stability.<\/p>\n An anchor comprises three parts:<\/p>\n An anchor is called \u201ctemporary\u201d if it is to be used for a limited period of time, generally during construction of the structure. A \u201cpermanent\u201d anchor is a ground anchor lasting more than two years or, more generally, a component required for the entire lifetime of the structure.<\/p>\n<\/div>What is a ground anchor ?<\/h2><\/div>
\nGround anchors are commonly used to prevent deformation of a retaining wall<\/a> after excavation<\/strong>. In such case, anchors are installed through the retaining structure during the excavation phase. Earthworks are resumed once these anchors have been tensioned.<\/p>\n\n
