TITAN Injection Anchors Al Advantages of utilizing the TITAN Injection Anchors: a) for cased holes In applications, where the only way to stabilize the hole was will) a casing, for example in weathered rock, tallus, backtill areas, round gravel, sand and clayey soils, the TITAN Injection Anchor has proven its strength. The more likely there is danger that the bore hole collapses or gets misdirected by obstacles the more sense the use of the TITAN anchors makes. There is no need to extract the casing, smaller drill rigs can be used and there are less cutlings, the amount of grout is reduced. Soil friction and settle- ment are much improved compared to cased holes. b) approx. 25% saving for the typical „everyday job" Considering as an example the installation of twenty 12 meter long tieback anchors in art exca- vation. For such a small project equipment morw lization accounts for approximately 300l6 of the total cost and is practically independant of the number of anchors to be installed. A reduction of these fixed costs is possible only by use of our simplified method of installation for anchors and soil nails. Smaller equipment fits onto a small trunk or even on a trailer and consequently the organization of such jobs is greatly simplified. c) for cramped quarters and jobs with difficult access. the chance to couple and extend the TITAN Mier. - lion Anchor and also to use small drilling equipment makes it Ideal for use within basements, under brid- ges, on river Lqnks, on scaffolding, at a steep slo- pe, in a backyarc, inside factories between machi- nery. The space required is much less than for a crawler rig which needs 6 m stabilized workspace in Ironl of the anchor position. Small drilling units like the Morath aluminium mast, ran be brought by helicopter to nearly inaccessable (by road) alpine areas. Corrosion protection Systems for TITAN Injection Anchors simple corrosion protection for temporary anchors, micropiles, soil nails and rock bolts. A minimum continuous and constant grout cover of the steel of 20 mm in sort and 10 ruin in rock is called simple corrosion protection. In soil, the circular centralizers positioned before each coupler guarantee a complete grout coverage. When using pure cement grouts the advantage over concrete or special mortar is, thait it has a surplus of cement Even if cracks of 0,1 mm occur in the grout body due to the tensile stress of the anchor there is no danger of corrosion. In non-agressive soils it would take centuries before carbonization would be so far advanced that the ph -value at the bottom of the crack would drop below 9, acc. to the Pourbaix oragram. A passivalion of file steel in the area of the unbonded length is not required for temporary anchors because of the fine grain structural steel with a wall thickness of above, A min since this steel is not sprisitive to hydro- gen embrittlement. On request and depending on local standards the cor- rosion protection can be improved by passivating the steel. Combicoaling means: hot -dip galvanised plus epoxy coated. (presently available for TITAN 30/11 and 106 only) Double Corrosion protection for permanent anchors Double corrosion protection for TITAN Injection Anchors results from using a ferritic-austenitic steel (INOX) with a chromium content of 22%, material no. 1.4462 for the hollo>v anchor, the coupling and the spherical collar nut. This stainless INOX (inoxidable) Duplex rteel has scientifically been researched in Germany and in long term testing In the USA. A life span of 50 years and more is no problem for the TITAN INOX steel. IC ?'N: 14
