Rock

The Rock can also be called as rock anchor. Rock Anchors are installed into the center of the rock hole. They can tighten along the shaft to extend the resistance wedge into the rock.

Application of grounding anchor and earth anchor

Earth anchors are regularly utilized in structural designing and development projects, and have various applications, including:

  • Holding walls, as a component of disintegration control frameworks.
  • Underlying scaffolding of transitory structures and designs, for example, bazaar tents and open air stages.
  • Tying marine designs, like drifting docks and pipelines.
  • Supporting guyed poles, for example, radio transmission towers.
  • Anchoring utility posts and comparable designs.
  • Waste frameworks, for loadlocking and controlling ability to happen simultaneously.[clarification needed]
  • Scene, anchoring trees, frequently semi-mature transfers.
  • General security, as in anchoring little airplane.
  • Wearing exercises, for example, slacklining or abseiling.

In electrical industry

Earth anchor also has wide range of application. It can be installed to support utility pole as well as telephone pole. It has significant importance of power transmission and distribution.
