At Anchor Systems, we take pride in delivering comprehensive support and a first-class service that sets us apart from competitors. From the initial enquiry to project completion, our goal is to ensure our clients’ needs are fully met.

Our Process

The journey begins with understanding your objectives and preferred working methods. We offer full guidance and support throughout the design and ordering process, continuing even after the goods are delivered. Our commitment doesn’t end there—we provide ongoing support, training, and on-site supervision to ensure complete satisfaction at every stage.

We also specialise in creating bespoke designs tailored to the unique requirements of your project, offering solutions that perfectly align with your needs.

Stability Designs

We offer two types of stability design commonly used for retaining walls, embankments, and slope stabilisation.

  1. Local Stability Design
    • This design is based on the loading requirements, drawings, and soil investigation data provided by the principal engineer.
    • Using this information, we assess the specific soil conditions and recommend the appropriate ground anchors and their layout to ensure stability.

  2. Global Stability Analysis Design

    • For this design, the principal engineer provides the necessary drawings, a factor of safety, and detailed soil investigation data.
    • Based on these inputs, we calculate the load requirements of each earth anchor to maintain the desired level of stability.

Both designs are developed using recognised calculation methods and industry standards such as Eurocodes, DMRB, and CIRIA guidelines. We provide the results in a detailed PDF report, and a signed design certificate can be included if required.

It’s important to note that if the overall design includes a structure, a qualified structural engineer must ensure its adequacy.
