Anchors are inclined tie-backs that act to provide pulling forces to assist earth retaining structures with a reaction force pointing away from the excavation. Anchors enable the construction of deeper excavation and sometimes multiple layered anchors are needed to support deeper excavations.

Anchors are grouted elements produced in the subsoil by injecting grouting mortar around the rear part of a steel tendon or steel rod. The grout body is connected via the steel tendon or steed rod, and the anchor head to the structure or the rock section to be anchored.
