Instead of relying on the friction of grout anchors, the economically-efficient Soil Screw® Retention Wall System utilizes screw anchors as bearing devices. Rated for 70,000 lb. minimum ultimate tension, each Soil Screw® anchor has bearing plates that are spaced along their entire lengths. This is done to construct a gravity wall to reinforce the soil and allows the Soil Screw® anchors to be loaded as soon as they are installed. Strata-Tek LLC formulates anchor size and grid spacing according to local soil conditions and load requirements.
