There are three main stages to the installation of an earth anchoring system: |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
DRIVING
THE EARTH ANCHOR |
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Drive the earth anchor system into the ground to the required
installation depth. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
REMOVING THE RODS |  |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Remove
the drive rod from the body of the earth
anchor, either by hand or using rod removing equipment. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
LOADLOCKING |
 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Loadlock
the earth anchor system into its working position by applying a load
to the wire tendon.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The same three stages of installation are applied to all Platipus earth anchor systems, from the smallest S2 to the largest B10 anchor. This is achieved by percussive installation. We separate the method of installation of our earth anchors into three simple categories – light, medium and heavy. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
