Anchors and Rock Bolts

IBO - Self-drilling Anchor

Field of application

 

IBO Self-drilling Anchors are successfully used for anchoring in poor ground, cohesive and non-cohesive soils, and in the case of unstable boreholes. Main applications are:

 

  • Tunneling and Mining
    • Rock bolting
    • Face anchoring
    • Reinforcement ahead of the tunnel face - spiles
    • Foot piles
    • Tunnel portals, trenches, and cut and cover area
  • Special foundations
    • Reinforcement of excavation pits, dams, and slopes - grouted anchors
    • Anchorage of retaining walls and noise barriers
    • Pile foundation and buoyancy control - grouted piles
  • Avalanche protection structures
    • Anchorage of avalanche barriers

System Description IBO - Self-drilling Anchor

  • Hollow bar anchor with continuous cold-rolled outside-thread
  • Application as injection anchor without casing, especially for non-stable boreholes
  • Self-drilling installation, utilization of the anchor bar as drill rod with a single-use drill bit
  • Easy extension of the anchor bars by couplings
  • Grouting or development of the grout body either simultaneously with drilling by using a rotary injection adapter or afterwards
  • Assembly of the anchor head with the anchor plate and the nut; stressing and locking of the anchor bar with a torque wrench or hydraulic jack after the grout has cured

 

Prime advantages of the IBO - Self-drilling Anchor

  • Easy and similar operating principle for different rock mass and soil conditions
  • Drilling, installation, and injection of the IBO anchor in one single operational step
  • No pre-drilling of a borehole by using a casing tube and extension rods with subsequent anchor installation necessary
  • Minor space requirement for anchor installation
  • Optimized machinery and manpower requirements
  • Basic dimensioning of the required anchoring forces by choosing the appropriate anchor type
  • Functional adjustment of the required anchor lengths using couplings
  • Optimum bonding of the profiled anchor rod and the grout
  • Adjustment of the IBO - drill bit design and diameter to different rock mass and ground conditions
  • Bare or corrosion-protected version available
  • Appropriate for temporary or permanent applications 2), 3)
