Construction—North America—USA—Hydro & Marine Structures
Rock Anchors consisting of 168t of galvanized
THREADBAR ® Tendons that were installed in
the approach slab of the spillway chute.
Furthermore, DSI supplied 75mm Ø, GR 150
THREADBAR ® Tendons to extend the 30
rock anchors that were installed in phase III
as well as the complete stressing equipment
and a grease pump. The technical challenge
was to develop four different customized
anchor geometries to extend just 30 anchors.
The rock anchor systems supplied by
DSI proved to be superior to those of the
competitors. Furthermore, DSI was able
to secure this project by taking advantage
of its high quality products and excellent
customer service.
