Geotechnical engineering
As a globally recognized manufacturer, ANP-Systems GmbH offers all anchorage and micropile systems commonly used in special foundation engineering within the field of geotechnics. Our product portfolio includes grouted anchors, micropiles as well as soil and rock nails. Prestressing steel strands, threaded bars, prestressing steels and hollow bars are used in these systems.
Many years of experience in the development, approval, production and application of our geotechnical products guarantee systems that meet the highest quality requirements.
Variants
Micropiles
Micropiles are deep foundation elements with a small diameter of up to 300 mm, through which loads from the superstructure are transferred into deeper, load-bearing soil strata by means of skin friction.
Soil nails
The principle of soil nailing consists in installing bar-shaped reinforcement elements (soil nails) into the in-situ soil in order to increase the tensile and shear strength of the ground. This results in a monolithic composite body of the existing soil, whose load-bearing behavior is comparable to that of a gravity wall subjected to external actions.
Ground anchors
Anchors are used whenever high tensile forces must be transferred into the ground.
Typical applications include the tie-back anchoring of excavation support systems and retaining walls, slope and rock stabilization measures, as well as the anchoring of bridge abutments or wind turbine towers.
Tension rods
Tension rods are used as horizontal anchoring systems for the stabilization of sheet pile anchor walls or quay structures. They are installed in the head region of embankment structures, sheet pile walls as well as isolated or strip foundations to transfer horizontal loads. Depending on the intended service life and application, the tension rods are available with various corrosion protection and prestressing systems.
