Bridge Abutments
Bridge abutments must resist earth pressures while supporting the full weight of a bridge deck. These critical structural elements are often exposed to water flow, settlement, or lateral load from embankments and road traffic, making stabilisation essential for long-term performance.
Anchoring Solution
Vulcan Earth Anchors can be used to reinforce bridge abutments by transferring loads from unstable or shifting zones into deeper, stable soil layers. Their quick installation and immediate loading capability make them ideal for time-sensitive infrastructure projects. Anchors can also be used to secure protective facing or erosion control systems around the abutment.
Benefits
Ideal for reinforcement or retrofit of ageing abutments
Works with geogrids or erosion control sheeting
Rapid installation with no need for excavation
High-load capacity for critical applications
Corrosion-resistant hardware for long service life
