The B8 and B10 ground anchors are normally associated with heavy percussive installation. In this situation, installation is completed using a wheeled or tracked excavator with a percussive breaker attachment. Loadlocking is completed using a hydraulic loadlocking unit.

Where ground conditions are hard or large quantities of anchors are to be installed, this type of equipment can also be used to install the B4 and B6 anchors.

STAGE ONE - DRIVING THE GROUND ANCHOR
  Drive the ground anchor system into the ground to the required installation depth.
 
 
STAGE TWO - REMOVING THE RODS
Remove the drive rod from the body of the ground anchor, either by hand or using rod removing equipment.
STAGE THREE - LOADLOCKING
Loadlock the ground anchor system into its working position by applying a load to the wire tendon.
