KTB Anchor Method

Outline

Grand anchor are applied in various field such as cutting earth, stable surface of slope failures, landslide prevention and overturning of structures buoyancy prevention.
Among them, The “KTB permanent Anchor Construction Method” has many performance as a durable anchor construction method with stable mechanical properties.

Main Applications

Slope protection surface stabilizer( on-site strike frame)

Slope protection surface stabilizer( Pressure receiving Plate)

Prevention of underground structure rising to the surface

Reinforce existing retaining wall

Suspension Bridge’s Anchor

Preventation of Overturning Steel Tower

Types of KTB Permanent Anchor Construction Method

KTB・Tension Type SC Anchor Construction Method
  • The strand has a gap with a spacer, it strengthens adhesion strength of grout.
  • SC strand is used for tendon to achieve corrosion prevention and rust prevention throughout
  • It has the simple structure ,so that it is possible to reduce the diameter of drilling
  • Easy insertion task and easy to manage the tension easy
KTB・Load Distributed Permanent Anchor Construction Method
  • Distributed transmission of design anchor force securely to the ground via multiple load object carrying capacity
  • SC strands are used for tendon, to achieve corrosion prevention and rust prevention throughout.
KTB Stress constrained Cms Anchor Method
  • Transmission of averaged small stress by unprecedented constrains with corrugated ribs.
  • Completely anticorrosion using SC strand in Tendon , realizing quadruple corrosion protection throughout.
  • When the fixing ground is good , it is possible to shorten the length of the anchor body
  • Simple structure realizes thinning of drilling

Anchor Construction Procedure

【Step 1】

Drilling

Drilling of the anchor is based on the planned drilling diameter and prescribed drilling length at angle.
Also at the end of drilling , clean the inside of the hole with distilled water so as not to disturb the drilling hole.

【Step 2】

Grout Injection

As a rule primary injection is done for the purpose of replacing drilling water and filling grout before inserting tendon.
Complete replacement of drilling water with grout is most important.

【Step 3】

Tendon Insertion

Insert tendon as soon as possible after primary injection as per the construction plan.

【Step 4】

Pressurization Injection

After inserting the tendon , pressurized injection is in essence. After drawing the drill pipe make replenishment injection.

【Step 5】

Tension

After the grout reaches the predetermined strength , the tension is confirmed by the quality assurance test , and it is fixed with the tension at fixing time indicated in the construction plan

【Step 6】

Fixing and anchor’s upper part processing

Tension and settled anchor ‘s upper parts are processed as per the design document.
