Introducing the Anchor Scale | The Next Generation of Bolt Scales

2019/05/27

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

 

I finally finished it.

Ground Anchor Installation: Measurement of Placement Deviations

Anchor Scale

This is it.

Measurements are taken with the casing in place.

 

First, determine the placement location using optical measurements (coordinate values) or the main survey line (design cross-section).

Hammer a nail into that spot.

Ground Anchor Installation Locations

To make it easier to see the top, bottom, left, and right, either drive guide nails or draw lines as shown in the photo.

Align the zero point on the anchor scale with the guide pin.

Measurements can be taken after drilling, during drilling, or before drilling.

However, since this measurement is based strictly on the casing as the reference point, please align the anchor body with the reference point after taking the measurement.

Anchor Scale

Please read the red markings on the arrow board. (You can choose your own X and Y values.)

Anchor Scale

We're currently testing it at our site, and we haven't had any issues with its usability.

We offer anchor casings in a variety of sizes.

Currently, φ90, φ115, and φ135 are the standard sizes.(Please let the store know which size you'd like.)

Larger sizes are also possible, but it will take a little longer, and the scale plate will need to be made larger.

Also, this time as well,We have prepared a custom box.So, if you need it, please contact us.

 

See you later.

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. A while back, a young site supervisor from another company asked me, “Do you pay attention to the soil conditions when drilling holes for ground anchors?” (Well, you better pay a lot of attention to them, lol.) If you underestimate the soil conditions when preparing a cost estimate, you’ll be the one crying about it later. But anyway…

This happened a while back, but I was on-site at a construction project overseeing an assembly inspection when the person in charge pointed out, “Oh, this is a T-joint,” and the whole site went dead silent lol. Since T-joints are generally prohibited under the Japan Society of Civil Engineers’ Standard Specifications for Concrete, it’s only natural that when one is found…

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The rainy season has begun, and it’s that time of year when news of heavy rains is reported from all over the country. Every year around this time, we hear stories from somewhere about “embankments collapsing” or “slopes shifting.” One incident that’s still fresh in my memory is the debris flow that struck Atami City, Shizuoka Prefecture, in July of Reiwa 3…
