Abstract
An anchor head for a corrosion-protected prestressable injected anchor secures the end of a bundle of steel members, such as rods, wires or strands. The anchor head includes an abutment member and an anchor plate supported on the abutment member. The anchor plate has bores for receiving and anchoring the ends of the individual steel members. The bundle of steel members extends through a borehole and between the borehole and the abutment member the steel members are fanned or spread out before entering the anchor plate. Each of the steel members is covered with a corrosion protective sheathing. A closure plate is arranged at the abutment member and has a number of openings corresponding to the number of steel members. The steel members pass through the closure plate in a sealed manner.
Claims3
An anchor head for a corrosion-protected prestressable injected anchor for use as a permanent ground anchor or rock anchor comprising a tension member arranged to extend through and out of a borehole, said tension member comprising a plurality of individual steel members arranged in a bundle, an abutment member arranged to be located spaced outwardly from the borehole, an anchor plate supported on said abutment member on the opposite side thereof from the borehole, said anchor plate having bores therethrough each for an individual one of said steel members, said anchor plate having a first surface facing in the direction of said bundle of steel members and an oppositely directed second surface, said bundle of steel members being in closely spaced relation within the borehole and fanned outwardly relative to one another between the borehole and said abutment member, a corrosion sheathing on each of said steel members, a closure plate located on the first surface side of said anchor plate and spaced from said anchor plate by said abutment member, said closure plate having a number of openings therethrough corresponding to the number of said steel members, said steel members extend through said openings in said closure plate, a sleeve tube laterally encloses each of said steel members and said corrosion sheathing on said steel members in the fanned-out region thereof and in the region where the steel members extend through said closure plate so that said steel members extend through said closure plate in a sealed manner, and means cooperating with said another plate for fixing the ends of said steel members in said anchor plate.
