Retaining wall failure is a common issue in civil engineering projects involving slopes, excavation sites, and waterfront structures. Soil pressure, water infiltration, and structural aging can lead to wall movement and collapse.
Helical tieback anchor systems provide an effective solution for stabilizing retaining walls and earth retention systems.
Better Screw Co. manufactures helical anchors designed to resist both tensile and lateral forces. These systems are installed by rotating steel shafts with helical plates into stable soil zones behind the retaining structure.
Once installed, anchors are connected to wall systems using engineered brackets or plates, distributing load and preventing further movement.
Key advantages include:
High tensile load capacity
Rapid installation without excavation
Minimal environmental impact
Adjustable load transfer capability
Applications include highway retaining walls, basement stabilization, coastal protection structures, and slope reinforcement systems.
Compared to traditional soil nails or deadman anchors, helical tiebacks offer superior installation speed and predictable load performance.
