Earth Anchor Installation
Manufactured exclusively for Tensar's North American Green® product line, our earth anchors reach deep into the soil strata to offer enhanced anchoring in the worst conditions. When combined with turf/earth reinforcement mats (TERM), they can offer a system that controls erosion and reinforces vegetation in the most extreme situations.
How Do Earth Anchors Work?
The corrosion resistant earth anchors increase the mechanical strength of the veneer both during installation and use. The earth anchors are connected to a stainless steel or galvanized tendon that extends to the surface and is secured with a plate that anchors the TRM. The surface plate exerts a load on the anchor that compresses the soil above the anchor and provides resistance to further anchor movement.
