DYWIDAG Threadbar Anchor with Fully Removable Tendon

Fully removable tendon ensures unrestricted access for subsequent works.

Threadbar anchors feature a fully removable tendon, typically comprised of a single section tendon due to the limitations of coupler diameters. This allows subsequent works such as pile driving, excavation, or tunnel boring to take place with no obstructions left in the ground.

The threadbar tendon can be removed from the end anchorage after de-stressing by unscrewing it.

This is a compression type anchor, where load is transferred to an end anchorage which surcharges the grout column above it by the plug effect. Therefore, the grout plug length may be significantly shorter than the geotechnical bond length.

Fully removable bar tendon, with only a small end anchorage remaining in the ground so as not to disturb subsequent works
The load transfer mechanism (compression type, from furthest end) offers greater efficiencies so can be shorter than the geotechnical bond length to save time and materials
Cuttable parts include the free length sheathing and cast iron compression units for complete flexibility
Can be used with the entire Threadbar range to suit common anchor loadings
Load monitoring options and instrumentation can be incorporated with DYWIDAG Removable Bar Anchor Systems for data-driven insights
