Advantages
1. Less drilling is necessary to develop the same shear
cone as the bonded anchor system. Also, less grout is
needed since there is less hole volume.
2. The installer can prestress and grout the anchor in the
same day.
3. There is no cracking of the grout column, since the
installer is prestressing the anchor before grouting.
4. The oversized drill hole provides for excellent grout cov-
erage.
Disadvantages
1. The mechanical rock anchor should only be used in
competent rock.
2. The maximum working load for Williams largest
mechanical anchor, utilizing a 2:1 safety factor from the
ultimate tensile steel capacity, is 180 kips.

Advantages
1. Grout bonded anchors can be used in virtually all rock
conditions and also in most soils.
2. The maximum working load with a single Williams bar
anchor or multi-strand tendo can exceed 1,000 kips.
Disadvantages
1. The installer must wait for adequate compressive
strength of the grout to be reached before prestressing the
anchor.
2. Deeper drilling is required to develop the design load in
comparison to a mechanical anchor.
3. In weak rock or soils, a test program or sample borings
should be used to determine drill hole diameter and
anchor lengths.
Pol yest er Resi n Rock Pol yest er Resi n Rock Anchor s Anchor s
Advantages
1. Prestressing can be accomplished within minutes of
the installation.
2. Resin bonded anchor bolts are one of the most eco-
nomical temporary rock anchor systems available.
3. Resin anchoring is successful in most rock types.
Disadvantages
1. Resin anchors are difficult to protect against corrosion.
They require tight drill holes for proper mixing of car-
tridges, resulting in only a thin resin cover. In addition,
resin anchors cannot be centered in the drill hole, which
allows the bolt to rest on the bottom or side of the hole.
Resin is placed into the drill hole in a premeasured
amount which does not account for resin loss into rock
seams and cracks. Loss of resin creates unprotected
gaps along the anchor, essentially reducing the safety
factor of the system.
2. Resin anchors with lengths over 25 feet are difficult to
install because resin gel time often requires speedy
installations. Couplings cannot be used with full column
resin anchors because their outer diameter is too large
relative to the drill hole diameter.
3. Water presence can greatly reduce the holding capac-
ity of the anchor or cause the anchors to be susceptible
to creep.
4. Temperature affects set and cure times of the resin.
Mechani cal Soi l Mechani cal Soi l Anchor s Anchor s
Advantages
1. Problems associated with drilling anchor holes are
eliminated because the anchor is driven into the soil.
2. All anchors are tested during installation and provide
immediate anchorage. Actual holding capacity is deter-
mined during pull testing.
3. Time and expense associated with mixing and dis-
pensing grout is eliminated.
Disadvantages
1. The anchors are designed to hold no more than a 50
kip maximum working load. Holding capacity can be lim-
ited by the bearing strength of the soil.
2. Corrosion protection is limited.
3. Rocks or other obstructions in the installation path can
prevent adequate embedment.

The prestressing of a rock or soil anchor is done by one of two methods. The preferred and most accurate way to prestress
an anchor is to use a hollow ram hydraulic jack which couples directly to the end of the anchor with a pull rod assembly. The
jack frame typically bears against the steel plate while the hydraulic ram transfers a direct tension load to the anchor. When
the prestress load is reached, the anchor nut is turned tightly against the anchor bearing plate, and the load from the jack is
released. The anchor nut prevents the steel from relaxing back to its original length, therefore, the anchor has been pre-
stressed. Once the anchor is put into service, additional elongation in the anchor rod only occurs if the applied load exceeds
the prestress load.
The second method of prestressing is to use a torque tension method. Unlike competing products, Williams full, concen-
tric, rolled threads allow for torque tensioning when applicable. This is accomplished by simply turning the anchor nut against
the anchor bearing plate with a torque wrench. By using a torque tension relationship provided by Williams, the installer can
correlate the torque reading to a corresponding anchor tension load. Although not as accurate as direct tensioning, it is often
used for fast, economical installations in areas where hydraulic jacks would be cumbersome or difficult to utilize. Torque ten-
sioning is recommended to be done using a high-pressure lubricant under the hex nut to resist frictional resistance.
Prestressed earth anchors are often used for resisting cyclic or dynamic loading caused by wind or fluctuating water tables.
They are also used to limit or restrict structural movement due to anchor steel elongation. Common applications for prestressed
earth anchors are tower foundations, tie back walls, slope and dam stability, and tunnel bolting. Non-tensioned anchors or pas-
sive dowels are often used for temporary support, resisting shear loads, static loading, or for applications with low conse-
quences of failure.

With a non-tensioned dowel, anchorage starts at the surface and
actually breaks down and cracks the grout as the load transfers deep-
er along the length of the bolt. Over time the total anchorage may be
lost due to these recurring grout breakdowns.

Not Pre-Tested - Any application of load onto the bolt will cause
the grout to crack in the first several inches of drill hole depth.
Floating Condition - Allows floating of foundation or uplift of the
structure due to steel elongation.
Possible Fatigue Failure - Bolt can stretch and relax as the load
varies.
Possible Corrosion Problem - Bolt elongation will crack protective
grout cover.
Benef i t s of a Pr est r essed Benef i t s of a Pr est r essed Anchor : Anchor :
Pre-tested - By prestressing an anchor, each bolt is essentially pre-test-
ed, assuring it will hold its design load prior to final construction.
Eliminate Fatigue Stress - Fatigue failure is minimized since the service
load must exceed the prestressed load of the bolt to cause additional steel
elongation. Therefore, the periodic stretching and relaxing that causes
fatigue failure is eliminated.
Eliminate Uplift - Prestressing can eliminate a floating condition of a
foundation due to the natural hydraulic pressures or uplift loads caused by
wind or other overturning moments.
Negligible Bond Stress Relief - In cases where the earth anchor free-
stress length is grouted after prestress, the grout hardens around the
deformations of the bar and bonds to the rock in the drill hole to help pre-
vent stress relief in the bolt.
Corrosion Protection - A prestressed earth anchor will not elongate
through the grout column in the free-stressing length. Elongation breaks
down and cracks the grout, opening the door to corrosion and eventual fail-
ure. This is a common problem with passive or non-tensioned rock dow-
els.

The length and load capacity of rock and soil anchor systems is dependent on many variables. Some of these variables
are rock or soil properties, installation methods, underground or overhead obstructions, existing structures, right of way and
easement limitations, anchor material strength and anchor type. Topics such as these should be evaluated during an anchor
feasibility study prior to final anchor design. Final embedment depths should be determined on a project to project basis after
reviewing rock or soil samples, previous experience and geological data. On-site anchor tests are generally the best way to
accurately determine anchor lengths and capacities for the given geological conditions.

Prestressed or post-tensioned earth anchors must be designed with a free-stress length. This is the portion of the anchor
length that does not provide anchorage to the soil or rock during the stressing procedure. The purpose of the free-stress
length is to allow the installer to transfer an immediate anchor load directly to a specific location in the soil or rock. For
instance, when designing tie back anchors, the free-stress length should be long enough to transfer the prestress load behind
the predicted failure plane of the soil or rock mass. The free-stress length also helps to minimize load loss due to movement
at the anchor head during load transfer from the stressing jack. The Post Tensioning Institute recommends that for pre-
stressed rock or soil anchors utilizing steel bars, the free-stress length shall be a minimum of 10 feet, and for steel strand a
minimum of 15 feet due to greater seating losses. PTI recommendations on free-stress length are based on anchors utilizing
high strength post-tension steel and often have relatively high design loads. Lighter load prestressed mechanical rock anchors
have been successfully designed and installed with overall lengths shorter than 10 feet in high quality rock.

One method that is used to estimate the embedment depth for
mechanical rock anchors such as Williams Spin-Lock system is
based on rock mass pullout capacity. The mass of rock mobilized
in uplift is approximately conical in shape and often is angled out-
ward from the longitudinal axis of the rock anchor between 15 and
60 degrees depending on the sites structural geology. The pull-
out capacity of the cone is a function of the weight of the cone and
the shear resistance of the rock along the surface of the cone.
Rock anchors are typically designed with embedments deep
enough to ensure ductile failure of the steel bar. Mathematically,
by setting the anchors ultimate steel capacity equal to the pull out
capacity of the rock failure cone and applying necessary safety
factors, a designer can estimate anchor embedment depth. Some
designers neglect shear resistance and only use the weight of the
cone for rock mass pullout resistance. This will typically provide
a conservative anchor design.
The length of a mechanical rock anchor can be shorter than a
cement grout or resin bond system since the load is being trans-
ferred by a mechanical head assembly rather than a grout or resin
bond length. Therefore, the free-stress length plus the length of
the mechanical head assembly makes up the embedment depth
of the mechanical rock anchor. When anchors require couplers
for longer lengths, Williams recommends the use of a hollow bar
Spin-Lock for ease of grouting. Williams lists useful design charts
on pages 50-55 which tabulate anchor steel capacity based on
corresponding anchor diameters and recommended safety fac-
tors. This section also reviews installation procedure and pro-
vides detailed information on Spin-Lock accessories and compo-
nents.

Williams Form Engineering offers the Manta Ray and Stingray mechanical soil anchors. Manta Ray anchors can hold a
maximum of 20,000 lbs, depending on soil properties and size of the Manta Ray head assembly. Their advantage is ease of
installation, as no drilling or grouting is typically required. The anchor is simply driven into the soil with a driving hammer.

Embedment depths for prestressed resin or cement grout bonded rock anchors are often determined by using the
rock cone method as described under Mechanical Rock Anchor Lengths. However, unlike the mechanical anchor, the
bonded anchor must also include a bond length in the embedment depth. The bond length allows the applied tensile
load to be transferred to the surrounding rock. Therefore the embedment depth of a prestressed bonded rock anchor is
made up of the free-stress length and the bond length. When using the rock cone method, a conservative approach
would be to assume the pullout cone starts at the top of the bond zone. The bond length can be estimated by using the
following equation, however test anchors are generally the best way to determine anchor embedments and capacities.
Typical values shown below are from the Post-Tensioning Institute. They are not meant to be used for final design. Final
bond stresses should be determined after the review of sample cores, previous experience and geological data.

Embedments for prestressed soil anchors consist of a 10 foot minimum
free-stress length (for bar anchorages) and typically 20-40 feet of bonded
length. Anchor drilling and grouting methods can have significant impact on
soil bond stress values therefore final bond lengths are often determined by
specialty anchor contractors. Shown below is a chart that can be used to esti-
mate anchor bond length. This chart is for straight shaft anchors installed in
small diameter holes using low grout pressure. However, final anchor capac-
ity should be determined from field testing the anchors. For further guidance
and recommendation on the design of prestressed bonded soil and rock
anchors, refer to the Post-Tensioning Institutes manual on rock and soil
anchors. Also refer to AASHTO for applicable publications.
Note: Actual values for pressure grouted anchors depend on the ability to develop pressures in each type of soil.

The level of corrosion protection for an earth anchor is primarily dependent on the service life of the anchor, the
aggressivity of the environment, installation methods and consequences of failure. An anchor with a service life greater
than 24 months is generally considered permanent. Permanent anchors should always have some type of corrosion pro-
tection incorporated into their design.
Ground aggressivity is generally influenced by the following:
1. Electrical resistivity of the soil (Soil is aggressive if resistance is less than 2000 ohm-cm.)
2. pH value of the soil (Soil is aggressive if less than 5.5)
3. Chemical characteristics of the ground water, rock, or soil (salt water, slag fill, industrial waste, organic fill etc.)
4. Moisture
5. Presence of oxygen
6. Stray electrical currents

Williams also offers permanent and temporary multi-strand ground anchors. Williams strand anchors are offered with
a corrosion inhibiting compound under an extruded high density polyethylene in the anchor unbonded length. The per-
manent anchors are protected with corrugated high density polyethylene (HDPE) over the entire length of the anchor
excluding the stressing tail. The corrugated HDPE offers one level of corrosion protection while the field grouting oper-
ation inside the corrugated HDPE offers an additional level of protection. Temporary anchors are not manufactured with
the corrugated HDPE over the anchor bond and unbonded lengths. Upon request, the 0.6 diameter, 270 KSI, 7 wire
strand is offered epoxy coated or galvanized.

The standard permanent grout bonded rock or soil anchor consists of an epoxy coated or galvanized anchor rod,
grouted in an oversized drill hole. Centralizers should be used to assure good grout cover (approximately 25 mm)
around the bar. Additional corrosion protection may be desired if the rock or soil is considered to be aggressive, con-
sequences of failure are high or anchoring into material where good grout cover is difficult to achieve. Williams Multiple
Corrosion Protection (MCP) systems offer increasing barriers against corrosion attack. Williams MCP systems allow the
anchor bar to be engulfed in a pre-grouted poly-corrugated tube. Protective end caps may also be used to seal the nut
and washer from the environment when the outer end of the anchorage will not be encased in concrete.

Williams Spin-Lock mechanical rock anchors are used when anchoring into competent rock. The standard Williams
Spin-Lock anchor relies on cement grout for corrosion protection. Williams Spin-Locks can be specified with a hollow
anchor bar, allowing the system to be grouted from the lowest gravitational point in both up and down bolting applica-
tions. This provides a solid grout cover surrounding the anchor rod. Unlike the bonded rock anchor, the Spin-lock is
grouted after the anchor is stressed so cracking of the grout column due to prestressing is eliminated. Spin-Lock
anchors have been in service since 1959 and in most cases have relied strictly on cement grout for corrosion protec-
tion. If so desired, additional corrosion protection can be provided by step drilling a larger diameter drill hole, which
provides additional grout cover, or by galvanizing the steel anchor rod. Protective end caps may also be used to seal
the nut and washer from the environment when the outer end of the anchorage will not be encased in concrete.

Continuous corrosion protection can even be accom-
plished for the MCP Pregrouted anchors manufactured
from Williams Form Engineering. To achieve the equiva-
lent levels of corrosion protection the coupled sections of
bar anchors can be wrapped in a grease impregnated
tape that is further protected with heat shrink sleeving.
This scheme is acceptable by most governing agencies
and is specified in the PTI Recommendations for
Prestresed Rock and Soil Anchors.
Anchor Head Pr ot ect i on Anchor Head Pr ot ect i on
The most important section of a ground anchor that needs adequate corrosion protection is the portion of the anchor
exposed to air/oxygen. This is typically defined as the "anchor head", which generally consists of a steel bearing plate,
a hex nut and washer for a bar system, or a wedge plate and wedges for a strand system. For permanent ground
anchors it is best to galvanize the hex nut and plates even if the bar is epoxy coated. Galvanized components, if
scratched during shipping, are less likely to cause corrosion concerns than scratched epoxy coated components. The
end of the steel bar protruding out from the hex nut is often protected by the use of a plastic or steel end cap packed
with grease or cement grout. Williams offers several different types of PVC and metal end caps to provide corrosion pro-
tection at otherwise exposed anchor ends.

Zinc serves as a sacrificial metal corroding preferentially to the steel. Galvanized
bars have excellent bond characteristics to grout or concrete and do not require as much
care in handling as epoxy coated bars. However, galvanization of anchor rods is more
expensive than epoxy coating and often has greater lead time. Hot dip galvanizing bars
and fasteners should be done in accordance with ASTM A-153. Typical galvanized coat-
ing thickness for steel bars and components is between 3 and 4 mils. 150 KSI high
strength steel bars should always be mechanically cleaned (never acid washed)
to avoid problems associated with hydrogen embrittlement.
Epoxy Coat i ng Epoxy Coat i ng
Fusion bonded epoxy coating of steel bars to help prevent corrosion has been suc-
cessfully employed in many applications because of the chemical stability of epoxy
resins. Epoxy coated bars and fasteners should be done in accordance with ASTM A-
775 or ASTM 934. Coating thickness is generally specified between 7 to 12 mils. Epoxy
coated bars and components are subject to damage if dragged on the ground or mis-
handled. Heavy plates and nuts are often galvanized even though the bar may be epoxy
coated since they are difficult to protect against abrasion in the field. Epoxy coating
patch kits are often used in the field for repairing nicked or scratched epoxy surfaces.

Cement Grout filled corrugated polyethylene tubing is often used to provide an addi-
tional barrier against corrosion attack in highly aggressive soils. These anchors are
often referred to as MCP or Multiple Corrosion Protection anchors. The steel bars are
wrapped with an internal centralizer then placed inside of the polyethylene tube where
they are then factory pre-grouted. When specifying couplings with MCP ground
anchors, verify coupling locations with a Williams representative.

Williams corrosion inhibiting compounds can be placed in the free stressing
sleeves, in the end caps, or in the trumpet areas. Often bars are greased/waxed and
PVC is slipped over the greased/waxed bar prior to shipping. Each are of an organ-
ic compound with either a grease or wax base. They provide the appropriate polar
moisture displacement and have corrosion inhibiting additives with self-healing prop-
erties. They can be pumped or applied manually. Corrosion inhibiting compounds
stay permanently viscous, chemically stable and non-reactive with the prestressing
steel, duct materials or grout. Both compounds meet PTI standards for Corrosion
Inhibiting Coating.

Williams strand tendons contain an extruded high density polyethylene sheathing
around each individual strand in the free-stressing portion of the anchorage. The
sheathing is minimum 60 mils thick and applied once the 7-wire strand has been coat-
ed with a corrosion inhibiting compound. Extruded polyethylene sheathing provides a
moisture tight barrier for corrosion protection and allows the strand to elongate freely
throughout the free-stressing length during the prestressing operation.

Micropiles are high capacity, small diameter (5" to 12") drilled and grouted in-place piles designed with steel rein-
forcement to primarily resist structural loading. Micropiles are rapidly gaining popularity for foundations in urbanized
areas or in locations with low headroom and restricted access. They are an ideal choice for underpinning or emergency
repairs because they can be installed in virtually any ground condition with minimal vibration and disturbance to existing
structures. Williams larger diameters of All-Thread Rebar are popular choices for micropile reinforcement.
Williams offers right-hand threaded Grade 75 All-Thread Rebar in #14 - #28 along with a selection of reducer cou-
plers that can adapt to splice together any larger size bar to any smaller size. Williams also offers 150 KSI All-Thread-

because the effective net area available for reinforcement is
optimized with a single larger bar versus smaller bundled

Accepted by the FHWA in the Micropile Design and Construction Guidelines Manual, Hollow Bars are being used
increasingly for micropile applications. Through the increased bond stress resultant from the simultaneous drilling and
grouting operation, Hollow Bars are the reinforcement bar choice in collapsing soil conditions.
Using sizes from 32 mm to 76 mm, these Hollow Bars offer up to 428 kips of strength, up to 3.72 in

Micropiles are often tested in compression and tension for verification and proof tests. Williams manufactures all
products necessary for the reaction piles and offers a full line of testing equipment. Compression testing is accomplished
by reacting against the bottom of a test beam that is anchored to the ground with reaction piles. The reaction piles are
installed in line with the test pile at a minimum distance, so the reaction piles do not influence the loading of the test pile.
The reaction piles are designed to resist one-half of the test pile maximum test load.
On a typical compression test, the reaction beam is cribbed a distance off of the ground to accommodate the test jack
and load cell between the test pile and the bottom of the test beam. Each reaction pile is then pre-loaded, which com-
presses the test beam onto the cribbing. The compressive load is then applied to the pile through the test jack reacting
against the bottom of the beam. The pre-stress force on the reaction piles keep the beam from rolling.

Multi-bar elements are often used for attaining ultra-high
load carrying capacity in micropiles. High-rise office build-
ings and high-rise condominiums are examples where such
high load carrying micropiles (or sometimes referred to as
mini-caissons) are used. Each multi-bar micropile project is
uniquely designed by Williams to specific contractor specifi-
cations and shipped to the jobsite fabricated in durable cages
for quick installation. Williams stands alone in being a cus-
tomized manufacturer and therefore offers the advantage to
the industry of niche accessories to optimize efficiency and
costs.

Williams standard grout bonded rock & soil anchors consist of a plain or epoxy coated bar, grouted in an oversized
drill hole. Centralizers should be used to assure good grout cover (approximately 25 mm) around the bar. Where
anchors will penetrate aggressive soils that are low in pH value (<5.5) and high in sulfate, additional corrosion protec-
tion may be desirable. The degree of protection should be matched against the aggressivity of the environment and the
expected life of the anchorage system. Williams Multiple Corrosion Protection (MCP) systems offer increasing barriers
against corrosion attack for confidence in permanent anchorage in all ground environments. Williams protective outer
end caps may also be used to seal the nut and washer from the environment when the outer end of the anchorage will
not be encased in concrete.
Typically, Williams MCP anchors are supplied in 150 KSI All-Thread Grade (as shown below) and used in various
applications such as externally supported earth structures and tension tie-down systems.
Notes: If overall length is over 50' (or 40' for 1-3/4" and 2-1/2 diameters), anchor coupling should be located in bond zone with field-applied barrier,
such as heat shrink tube installed across splice joint. At minimum drill hole size, centralizers will only fit around anchor in the bond zone.
Drill hole diameters and bond lengths are based on geologic conditions. Consult your geotechnical engineer for recommendations.

Grades 75 and 150 KSI with full circular effective areas.
Several options of corrosion protection including epoxy coating, galvanizing, cement grout and multiple corrosion
protection for both temporary and permanent use.
Manufacturing versatility unmatched by any soil nail supplier in North America.
Connection abilities with structural and non-structural wall face attachments.
Williams Grade 75 and 150 KSI All-Thread-Bar soil nail components create an in-situ reinforcement system for the
stabilization of excavations and slopes during top-down construction. Oversized holes of 4" to 10" in diameter are drilled
and the centralized soil nail component is placed. The drill hole is then tremie grouted with Williams Wil-X-Cement grout.
After the drill hole grout is cured, the soil nails may be torque tensioned against the protective shotcrete face to a slight
load if desired.
Suggested working loads on common soil nails should not exceed 60% of the bar's ultimate strength. Pull out capac-
ity is a function of drill hole diameter, depth, over burden stress and the angle of internal friction of the in-situ soil. Field
tests are recommended to establish necessary bond lengths. However, typical anchorages in granular soils have yield-
ed pull out strengths of 2 - 10 kips per foot of embedment on lengths over 10 feet. See pages 64-65 for Grade 75 All-
Thread Rebar information.

As the soil loads the grouted nail, the stress starts at
the back of the nail behind the active zone failure plane
and reaches a maximum stress at the failure plane. The
stress dissipates from the failure plane through the active
zone to the flexible front fascia. The shotcrete fascia can
be very thin, as there is very little force at the face.

Williams Grade 150 KSI All-Thread Bars, Grade 75 All-Thread Bars and 270 KSI low relaxation strand have been suc-
cessfully used as Prestresed Ground Anchors for a wide variety of Civil Engineering applications. Bonded deep into the
ground using cementitious grout, these anchors transfer necessary forces to resists walls from overturning, water tanks
from uplift, towers from uplift, dams from rotating and other naturally or phenomenally occurring forces applied to struc-
tures. Anchors are designed and fabricated to the latest standards as set forth in the Post-Tensioning Institutes
Recommendations for Prestressd Rock and Soil Anchors. Anchor capacity is a function of the steel capacity as well as
the geotechnical holding capacity. Steel capacity should be limited to 80% maximum test load and 60% lock-off load for
permanent applications. Geotechnical capacity is a function of ground bond stress characteristics which can be opti-
mized by field procedures.
T Ti eback W i eback Wal l s al l s
Tieback Walls rely on prestressed anchors transfer-
ring load to a structural front fascia to resist naturally
occurring deflection forces resulting from below grade
excavated bulkhead construction. The anchors achieve
their geotechnical capacity by being bonded deep into
the ground and behind the theoretical failure plane where
the ground movement would originate should the
anchors not be present. The portion of the tieback
anchor carrying the load in the soil is known as the bond
length. The anchor transfers the load applied to the bond
length uninhibited through the failure zone by using a
bond-breaker. This portion of the anchor containing the
bond-breaker is known as the free-stressing length. The
anchor finally terminates at the front fascia of the wall to
an anchor head consisting of a plate and hex nut. The
anchor head is prestressed against the outer shoring
system of the wall, which in most cases would be steel
soldier piles with intermediate wood lagging.

Corrosion protection for tiebacks is specified per PTI
as either Class I or Class II. MCP pregrout in a polyeth-
ylene corrugated sleeve is commonly used for perma-

tion.

Williams has added strand anchor systems to an already fine line of ground engineering products. Williams has made
a commitment to the ground engineering industry to supply well engineered, quality products and back those products
with technical support and timely material delivery. The same commitment has been made with the Williams strand
anchor line.
Williams Strand Anchors utilize a high density extruded polyethylene sheath over corrosion inhibiting compound in the
unbonded zone. Williams has the most technologically advanced extrusion equipment for the manufacture of permanent
and temporary anchors. The state of the art equipment allows for precise extruded lengths in the unbonded zone and
high quality manufacturing.
Williams Strand Anchors are produced from 0.6 diameter, 7 wire strand (fpu =270 ksi, 1862 N/mm
2
) meeting ASTM
A-416 and are manufactured in accordance with the Post-Tensioning Institutes Recommendations for Prestressed Rock
and Soil Anchors.

Class I - Encapsulated Tendon:
Anchorage: Anchor Head, Bearing Plate w/ Trumpet and End Cap.
Free Stressing Length: Corrosion inhibiting compound filled HDPE sheath encased in grout.
Bond Length: Grout Filled encapsulated corrugated sheathing.
Class II - Encapsulated Tendon:
Anchorage: Anchor Head, Bearing Plate w/ optional Trumpet and optional End Cap.
Free Stressing Length: Corrosion inhibiting compound filled HDPE sheath encased in grout.
Bond Length: Externally grouted.

High capacity - Anchors utilize a 0.6 dia. 270 KSI (ultimate stress) strand. The number of strands per anchor dictate
the load carrying capacity of the anchor.
Lightweight - For a Class I protected anchor, the corrugated duct is grouted in the field, greatly reducing the weight of
the anchor. There is more load carrying capacity per pound of 7-wire 270 KSI strand than solid bar.
Anchors arrive to the jobsite fully fabricated and packaged in coils to allow for installation in areas where there are
clearance issues or bench width constraints.
Unlike bar systems, strand can be produced in any length.
All Williams strand anchors utilize a small diameter greased filled extruded high density polyethylene sheathing,
allowing for a greater number of individual strands to be contained in a given drill hole size. Manual greasing and
sheathing of individual strands require a larger free stressing sheath.
Stringent quality control of manufacturing is maintained because Williams engineering department provides shop
drawings for each production order showing customer preference details and specific contract requirements.

Strand spacers are provided in the anchor bond zone
to separate the strand and provide for the minimum
required grout cover around each strand for corrosion
protection and bond strength development. The strand
spacers are normally located 1-2 feet above the bottom
of the anchor and at the top of the bond zone. The inter-
mediate strand spacers are typically placed at a distance
of 8-10 feet, center to center along the bond zone
between the top and bottom spacer.

The Williams / Atlas Copco MAI Hollow Bar Anchor System is todays solution for a fast and efficient anchoring sys-
tem into virtually any type of soil. The MAI system has historically been known as self-drilling anchoring because the
hollow fully-threaded bar serves as both the drill string and the grouted anchor, thus installation is performed in a single
operation. The sacrificial drill bit is threaded onto the end of the MAI Bar and left in place following drilling. The drilling
fluid (air, water, or grout) is introduced through the hollow bar and allows the spoils to flush from the borehole.
The Williams / MAI System is particularly suitable for soils that do not allow for open-hole drilling (i.e. granular soils
that are collapsible in nature). In such cases, drilling with a grout fluid serves the purpose of flushing spoils from the
borehole and prevents looser, surrounding material from collapsing due to the higher relative density of the grout. The
Williams / MAI Hollow Bar Anchor System should be considered on any project desiring fast production that would oth-
erwise need to involve a casing system in order to maintain borehole stability.

In general, Williams / MAI recommends using the hollow hollow bar anchor system in difficult soils that do not allow
for open-hole drilling. Ground conditions featuring large voids or the presence of underground water are generally not
suitable for a drilled and grouted hollow bar. In hard rock, conventional DTH (Down the Hole Hammers) in open-hole
drilling offer a more efficient alternative. In all such cases, Williams offers solutions in their complete line of solid bar
anchor systems and multi-strand tendon systems.

The Williams / MAI Hollow Bar is manufactured from heavy-wall steel tubing thats cold threaded to form a standard left-
hand rope thread (R-Series) profile for R25-R51 bar diameters. The standard rope thread of the bar produces an excellent
bond between the grout and the bar as well as enabling connection to all conventional drill rigs and allows the use with a
wide range of drill steel accessories and bits.
The T76 hollow bar bar features a trapezoidal thread profile. All diameters of the Williams / MAI Hollow Bar are readily
available in standard three-meter lengths. Upon special request, lengths up to 12 meters are available with added lead-time.

The rope thread profile of the Williams / MAI Hollow Bar exceeds the requirements of German Standard DIN 1045-1 for
permissible crack width in grout under incremental tensile loading, up to 1.5 times the working load of the bar. In all tests,
the crack width at the steel surface was clearly below 0.1 mm in width. This testing was performed and documented by
Brandenburg Technical University. Upon request, Williams can provide a complete copy of the test report.

An installer must be able to stop drilling and add sections in an expeditious manner in order to maintain high levels of
productivity. The Williams / MAI R-Thread Hollow Bars are often used in conjunction with T-thread striker bars (see fig.1,
pg 4). For maximum efficiency, it is necessary to remove and attach new sections of rope-thread hollow bar while pre-
venting the striker bar from turning and releasing. The following are helpful suggestions in ensuring release from the hol-
low bar end (R-thread) while preventing release from the striker bar end (T-thread):
Keep the number of top components to a minimum.
Apply a locking torque to the striker bar end. Horse hair and Loc-Tite are available from Williams to facilitate in
preventing release. Williams / MAI can also provide the striker bar end of the rotojec shank or coupling box to be
machined to a tighter than normal thread tolerance so that a permanent, locking torque can be applied in the field.
Liberally grease the top end of each hollow bar going into the rotojec shank or coupling box.
To release the installer should grip the hollow bar and apply percussion combined with feed pressure in a clockwise
rotation. Caution: Care should be taken not to allow more than two turns of clockwise rotation as further rotation would
detach the drill bit or couplers within the borehole.

Soil Nails are non-tensioned, in-situ reinforcement for the stability of excavations and embankments in top-down con-
struction. The Williams / MAI Hollow Bar System is an ideal choice for soil nailing in difficult soils as it offers high instal-
lation rates. Hollow bar anchors have gained European approval for permanent soil nail use and have been used exten-
sively for permanent use in the United States.

Williams / MAI Hollow Bar Anchors can be used as a choice for pre-tensioned anchors in loose or collapsing soils
without the need for a casing. A free length must be installed onto the anchor if the project specifications call for a pre-
tension load to be applied from the bond length. Please consult with a Williams specialist for suggestions to properly
attach a free length sleeve. Note to Designer: Consult with Williams for an appropriate level of corrosion protection if
prestressed ground anchors are intended to be used for a permanent application.
Mi cr o Pi l es Mi cr o Pi l es
Williams / MAI Hollow Bar Anchors offer an excellent choice for micro piles in difficult ground conditions where open-
hole drilling isnt possible. The continuously threaded bar profile lends itself perfectly for restricted headroom applica-
tions because the bar can be cut and coupled at any length. The FHWA has approved hollow bar anchors for perma-
nent use in micro pile applications.

The Williams / MAI Hollow Bar System are often used for spiling in NATM tunneling. Spiles are continuously drilled

The Williams / MAI Hollow Bar Anchor System is optimally used in poor or very poor ground conditions ranging from
inconsistent fill, boulders, rubble and weathered rock to sand and gravel. Generally the system is installed with rotary
percussive drilling and continuous grouting. The thickness of grout can be varied depending on susceptibility of the bore-
hole to collapse, however a grout mixture of 0.4 water to cement ratio is recommended in poor, collapsible soils to ensure
a high enough density to support the annulus. In all cases, a final grout mixture of 0.40 w/c should be used for adequate
in-situ structural capacity. Williams / MAI recommends mixing the grout in a colloidal (shear type) mixer, so once
pumped, the fine grout particles are fully able to disperse into the small voids of the surrounding soil. This well mixed
grout exits the side ports of the drill bit under pressure to flush and remove the softer parts of the soil while penetrating
into the firmer material for increased bond capacity. Also the percussive action of the drill acts as a poker to further
consolidate the grout. Williams / MAI recommends to partially withdraw each fully drilled section up the drill mast prior
to attaching new sections, this way the drilling can begin in a plunging type action to even further improve grout pene-
tration. Utilizing proper drilling and grouting techniques is important as the system would generally fail between the
soil/anchor interface, not the grout/anchor interface.
In all cases the hollow bar system should be drilled slow enough to ensure rotation through the soil as opposed to
excessive percussion and feed pressure with limited rotation. Such practice will provide the formation of a true borehole
with consistent grout cover. Grouting pressure should be sufficient to maintain circulation at all times with a small amount
of grout return visible at the mouth of the borehole. Normal drilling rotation is in the range of 40 and 100 RPM.

The preferred method of installation for the
Williams / MAI Hollow Bar System is rotary percus-
sion drilling, as this method offers good directional
stability and high rates of production. Hand-held drill
rigs can be used to install R25 and R32 bars. Hand-
held equipment works best when used in conjunction
with an air leg or within a slideframe arrangement.

For simultaneous drilling and grouting installations, a rotary injection adapter is required.
The rotary injection adapter or grout-swivel consists of a RotoJ ec Body and RotoJ ec Shank.
The RotoJ ec Shank fits within the RotoJ ec Body and contains grout inlet ports. One end of
the shank attaches to the striker bar while the other end attaches to the hollow bar anchor.
The RotoJ ec Body contains an inlet pipe to allow grout to enter into the shank and down the
hollow bar. The body remains stationary while the shank spins with the rotary action of the
drill. To hold the body into position and prevent spinning with the rotary action of the drill, it
is necessary to attach a locator frame from the body to the drifter. Some rock drills, such as
a TEI Drill and an Atlas Copco IRIA (Integrated Rotary Injection Adapter) System, offer an
integrated grout-swivel to facilitate installation and reduce time-consuming retro fits of tradi-
tional top hammer drilling equipment.
Caution should be applied that only water or grout flush be used with the grout-swivel sys-
tem. Air flush could burn the seals within the RotoJ ec Body. In all cases, grease should be
applied to the grout-swivel system prior to use.
Coupl i ng Box Coupl i ng Box
A Coupling Box is a machined and case hardened adapter, which is usually located just
below the drill hammer and is used to connect the striker bar to the hollow bar. Sizes are avail-
able in any striker bar thread type to connect to any Williams / MAI Hollow Bar size. Generally
a Coupling Box would be used in place of a grout-swivel during an air flush installation.
Gr out Inj ect i on Gr out Inj ect i on Adapt er Adapt er
An Injection Adapter connects to the end of the hollow bar and serves as a conduit

Adapter Sleeves enable the use of a larger diameter drill bit with a particular bar size than
normal to increase the borehole size and achieve higher loads in poor ground conditions.
Caution needs to be applied that the use of larger diameter drill bits with smaller diameter
hollow bars be restricted to clay/soft ground in order to reduce the risk of torsion buckling in
the bar. Sizes available are R25/R32, R32/R38 and R38/R51.

Resin anchoring provides quick rock reinforcement for active and passive installations for dams, locks, underground
structures, rock cuts, and tie downs. Both Williams Grade 75 and 150 KSI All-Thread Bars are used for resin anchoring.
Williams inventories quality resin cartridges. Resin cartridges consist of two components: (1) A polyester resin grout
and (2) its catalyst. These precisely measured quantities are separated by a thin plastic film and are enclosed by this
same film. After holes are drilled, the sausage-shaped cartridges are inserted. When rotating a deformed bar through
the cartridge and into the hole, the components are mixed and the curing action begins. When cured, the comprehen-
sive strength of the resin is often stronger than the surrounding rock. Resin systems offer a quick economical approach
resulting in an encapsulated rock anchor.
T Tensi oned Bol t s vs. Non-T ensi oned Bol t s vs. Non-Tensi oned Bol t s ensi oned Bol t s
Tensioned bolt systems use fast-setting resin for anchorage in the
back (bond zone) portion of the drill hole. The forward portion of the hole
can be left open for temporary bolting situations, filled with slow-setting
resin or pumped with cement grout depending on the situation.
Non-tensioned systems would use resin of the same set time the full
length of the drill hole.

The chart above shows the length of drill hole that will be encapsulated by a twelve inch polyester resin cartridge. It should be used as a guide
to the most common combinations of hole diameter, bolt diameter, and resin diameter. Other combinations are possible provided the annular space
does not exceed 1/4 to 3/8.
Due to the difficulty of overcoming the drag of the bar through the resin cartridges during insertion, fully encapsulated resin drill holes are most
practical with shorter anchorages.

For maximum shelf life, cartridges should be stored
away from direct sunlight in a reasonably cool, well venti-
lated dry area. Storage life is up to one year if stored at 60-
80 F. Under adverse conditions, shelf life is reduced. To
insure proper storage, the product should not be subjected
to temperatures in excess of 85 F for prolonged periods.
Storage is recommended under-cover on original pallets
with adequate ventilation. If stored in trailers in hot weath-
er, doors should be left ajar or a sun screen erected over
the trailer. Conversely, while cold storage does not
adversely effect the shelf life, cartridges should be warmed
to a range of 50-60 F before using to assure gel times
within the specified range (see Gel Time chart). Cases
should be stacked preferably six high with a maximum
never to exceed nine cases. Over-stacking will crush
cases, resulting in ruptured cartridges.
St ep 1 St ep 1
For Pre-Tensioned bolts, insert the necessary resin car-
tridges into the drill hole, by placing the fast-setting car-
tridges in first and the slow-setting cartridges last. Do not
allow cartridges to free fall to bottom of hole.
St ep 2 St ep 2
Push bolt into hole (rotating at this time is optional).
When bolt is completely inserted into the hole, rotate 40-60
revolutions (approximately 10-15 seconds). Caution
should be taken to avoid under-spinning or over-spinning.
St ep 3 St ep 3
Install bearing plate, washer and hex nut. Complete
pre-tensioning before slow-setting cartridges gel by using a
hydraulic jack or torque wrench depending on design
requirements. Installation is complete when slow-setting
resin has hardened. Special accessories used for bolt
angle adjustment are shown on page 69.

This product is intended for industrial use only. Avoid
contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin. Wear
safety glasses when handling or installing. If contact
occurs, wash eyes or skin with water for 15 minutes. In
case of eye contact, obtain medical attention. Cartridges
contain benzoyl peroxide, polyester resin, styrene and
inert fillers. The relationship between hole dimensions,
bolt size and the size and number of cartridges is critical
to good performance. Your Williams representative will
be glad to assist in determining the proper combinations
for specific applications.

Manta Ray and Stingray earth anchors are driven tipping plate soil anchorsdependante on
soil strength for reaction of tensile loads. Manta Ray anchors have working loads up to 20 kips,
and Stingray anchors have working loads up to 50 kips. After driving the anchor to the required
depth, the driving tool (called drive steel) is removed. The anchor is then tipped and proof test-
ed with Williams Anchor Locking Kit from its edgewise-driving position to present its bearing area
to the soil. This is called "load locking" and provides an immediate proof test of each anchor.

There are eight Manta Ray Anchors and
three Stingray Anchors with light to heavy
duty holding capacities. Shown to the left are
six different Manta Ray anchor heads. All
anchors are made of galvanized ductile iron,
can be driven with the drive steel set (except
the MR-88 &M-68) and can be tested to the
desired holding capacity with the load locker.
The anchors are designed to utilize solid
steel rods as load carrying members. Bars
and accessories for Manta Ray and Sting Ray
anchors can be found on pages 62-68.

Vehicle Mounted Breakers or Compactors:
Boom mounted demolitions or compactions are very
effective for driving Manta Ray and Stingray anchors. This
method requires a special tool in the breaker or a socket
welded to the bottom of the compactor to hold the drive steel.
Skid steer loaders, backhoes or excavators work well. 4,000
to 16,000 lb. Vehicles with 250 to 500 foot-pound pavement
breakers are best for Manta Rays, and 16,000 to 30,000 lb.
vehicles with 500 to 1,000 foot-pound pavement breakers are
best for Stingrays. Breaker tools and vibro sockets are avail-
able upon request.
Rock Drills:
Top hammer or down-the-hole hammer rock drills are very
effective for installation of Manta Ray and Stingray anchors.
For hard soil or weak rock installations, the drill can be used
to drill a pilot hole. Williams can provide striker bar adapters
for these types of drills. Rock drilling steel can also be modi-
fied to drive Manta Rays and Stingrays.
Manual Installation:
In some applications, Manta Ray anchors are driven into
the soil with a 90 lb. pavement breaker and coupled drive
steel. Pneumatic or hydraulic breakers are acceptable, but a
90 lb. weight class breaker is necessary. Manual installation
of Stingray anchors is not recommended.
Inst al l at i on Equi pment Inst al l at i on Equi pment
Drive Steel:
Drive steel and accessories are avail-
able for all Manta Ray and Stingray anchors
in basic lengths of 3 feet, 6 feet, and 8 feet.
Multiple sections are coupled together with
specialized couplers to achieve the
required depth of installation. Manta Ray
and Stingray drive steel are not inter-
changeable.
Load Locking Kits:
For Manta Ray, the LL-1 is a 10-ton fast acting jack with
an 8 inch stroke. The direct reading gauge and rod gripping
jaws make load locking easy and quick. The base and jack
are self-aligning to the actual installed angle of the anchor. It
requires an open center hydraulic flow of 2 to 8 gallons per
minute and a maximum pressure of 2,000 psi. A power sup-
ply is not included with this load-locking kit, it must be provid-
ed separately. Models GPU18-8 or GPU-2 are suitable.
For Stingray, the SR-LLK is a 60-ton double acting jack
with a 10 inch stroke, which includes a hydraulic power sup-
ply. It is available in two models, one for tower guy anchors
and one for retaining wall tieback anchors.

Williams Spin-Lock anchors were first used in the 1950s for
rock/roof bolting in projects such as NORAD and Australias Snowy
Mountain power facility. Since then many engineers, contractors
and owners have seen the advantages of the Spin-Locks on dams,
locks, water/waste treatment facilities and many other large scale
civil projects. Williams Spin-Lock anchors provide the advantage of
immediate anchorage for pre-stressing and require shorter embed-
ments than traditional grout bond anchor systems.
The Spin-Lock has been job-proven, time and time again to
meet all bolting requirements in any strata which can be bolted.
To comply with the need for bolts which will satisfactorily anchor
a broad range of variable rock formations, Williams has developed
a complete family of rock bolts with a simple and efficient system of
installation. Williams offers a complete line of rental equipment for
installing, testing and grouting of Spin-Lock anchors.
Before proceeding with your next project, consult with a design
agency familiar with Williams Rock Bolting. Williams would be
pleased to recommend an ideal system for you.
Compar i son Pr oves Compar i son Pr oves
Method A
Anchor is pre-stressed to
rock and used in thin slab
locations.
Method B
Less expensive method.
Used where pre-stressed
rock is anchored to large
slabs or footings.
Method C
Exposed nut and plate
where slab is pre-stressed
to rock.
Method D
Non-exposed nut and
plate where pre-stressed
slab is required to have
flush anchor.
Expansion shell receives
full bearing support from
solid 300 cone design.
Quartered cone design
leaves expansion shell
unsupported at adjacent
gaps. Shell can collapse
in under high stress.

Though years of development Williams has produced and
patented the Pre-stressable, Hollow-Core, Groutable Spin-Lock
Rock Bolting Systems. The hollow-core allows the bolt to
always be grouted from the lowest gravitational point. In an up-
bolting situation, the grout is pumped in through the plastic grout
tube and begins to fill the drill hole from the plate. The grout
rises until the entire hole is filled and the grout returns through
the hollow bar. In down grouting situations, the grout is pumped
through the hollow bar and starts at the bottom of the hole.
Grout rises and returns through the de-air tube when the hole is
filled. Improperly or incomplete grouted bolts are subjected to
relaxation and corrosion. Pre-measured capsule systems can-
not properly account for unknown fissures and voids and often
leave the bolt vulnerable to deterioration. The Williams Hollow-
Core Grouting System spreads grout through the rock fissures
creating a completely protected monolithic section including
rock, grout and bolt. Because the Spin-Lock head assembly
provides 300 perimeter expansion anchorage and develops
the full strength of the rod, the hollow-core rock bolt may be pre-
stressed to the desired load and tested prior to grouting.

Spi n-Lock Head Spi n-Lock Head Assembl y Assembl y
The Williams Spin-Lock anchor assembly gives full 300 degree bearing area. The smooth shell design allows for
maximum shell to rock contact and eliminates point of contact created by serrated designs. The cone design supports
the shell 300, thereby eliminating any possible collapse of the shell under high load conditions. The thrust ring stop in
front of the shell prevents any possible rebound of the expanded shell down the cone when subjected to nearby blast-
ing. The Williams Spin-Lock anchor has been field proven on the worlds largest projects to far exceed in tension capac-
ity any other mechanical anchor on the market.

Williams can manufacture Spin-Lock Anchor Systems
with the use of a transition coupling, which allows the
anchor to be designed with a continuously workable
thread-form. This is advantageous when the anchor
length may need to be adjusted in the field due to vari-
able site conditions. The Transition Coupling engages a
continuously threaded U.N. bar into the head assembly
and the All-Thread tension rod (typically Grade 75 or 150
KSI) is attached to the other end of the coupling.

Care should be taken to insure
an accurate diameter and a
straight hole. The depth should
be over drilled to allow any debris
to fall to the bottom of the hole
when the anchor is inserted.
Clean the drill hole by blowing air
to the full depth to remove debris.
Efforts should be made to prepare

Install setting tool fully onto the

Initially torque the bolt to the required
torque with an impact gun, pneumatic, or
hydraulic torque wrench. This action
migrates the cone into the shell, thus
expanding the mechanical anchor into the
rock. Final torque can be checked and
adjusted with a manual or hydraulic torque
wrench. Remove the setting tool by
restraining the lower part while rotating it's
upper section until the setting tool is loose.
Prepare collar area with fast setting grout

Place plate, bevel washers (if required), hardened washer, and hex nut on the rock bolt. Tension the bolt by torquing
the hex nut with a torque wrench. For the recommended torque valve
to obtain the advertised tensile working load, see the "Torque On Nut"
column on the Spin-Lock Bolt charts listed on pages 51-54. For other
loads, see the torque tension graphs shown on pages 74 & 75.
Please Note: The torque/tension relationship is not as accurate as
direct tensioning with a hydraulic jack and should not be used where
critical tension loads need to be verified.

Place the jack and
frame over the bolt and
attach the test rod and
couplings to the bolt.
Attach the test nut and
test plate over the test
rod on top of the jack.
Test the rock bolt by
tensioning the jack to
the required test load
(usually half of the ulti-
mate strength) but
never to exceed the advertised yield strength of the anchor. Adjust
the loading of the jack to the required final tension and lock in the
final pre-stress load. This is done by tightening the rock bolt hex
nut with a knocker wrench (through the frame opening) until a slight
reduction is noticed on the jack gauge. The full pre-stress load will
be transferred to the anchor bolt once the tension in the test jack
has been released and test components removed.

Always grout from the lowest
gravitation point on the anchor bolt
until a steady stream of pure grout
is seen coming out around the
bearing plate or grout tube, and/or
from the de-air tube. For solid
bolts, this means that a separate
grout tube must be placed in the
drill hole (through an opening in
the bearing plate) as deep as pos-
sible before grouting. Long length
solid bolts should have the grout
tube attached to the bolt before
inserting and setting the anchor.
Down-grouting of Hollow Core
Rock Bolts can be simply grouted
through the hollow core by attach-
ing a grout tube adapter to the
outer end of the tensioned bolt
and grouting. When the grouting
is complete, all air and standing
water has been removed from the
drill hole by displacement and all
cracks and voids in the anchor
area are filled with cement grout.

Williams offers a field installation advising service to aid contractors in
the initial installation process of installing all types of anchor bolts. A
Williams Spin-Lock Anchor Installation Video is also available upon
request. Contact your Williams sales representative for details.
Up-grouting of Hollow-Core
Rock Bolts can be done by
grouting through a short length
grout tube extending just past
the drill hole sealer in the collar
area thus using the hollow core
at the end of the rock bolt to de-
air the hole. Up-grouting of
solid rock bolts involves attach-
ing a long length grout tube to
the anchor (prior to insertion,
setting, and tensioning) and
grouting through a separate
short length tube that extends
past the sealer area thus allow-
ing the rock bolt to de-air from
the longer grout tube.

Bai l Bai l Anchor s Anchor s
Bail Anchors are fast setting mechanical anchors that are simple to use for light to moderate loads in temporary or
permanent applications. They set in a one step torque tension operation and work well with Williams Grade 75 All-
Thread Rebar, constant torque nuts and domed plates/spherical washer assemblies. They are well suited for use in sin-
gle or twin grout tube installations due to the minimal rotation the bar undergoes during the setting process.
Bai l Bai l Anchor Inst al l at i on Anchor Inst al l at i on
Bail anchors are initially set in the hole using relative-
ly low torques that should not exceed 30 to 50 ft/lbs.
Higher setting torques applied to the bail anchor alone
will not help in the setting process. Final set of the Bail
Anchor is accomplished through direct tension with a
hydraulic jack or preferably by torquing the nut against
the plate. This action pulls the cone further into the shell
locking it into place. The outward migration of the bar is
usually no more than 1 to 2" maximum. This movement
must be anticipated and allowed for in the design and
application of this anchor type in ungrouted conditions.
Bail anchor installations are tested and grouted by nor-
mal methods.
For Bail Anchor Bars and Accessories, see pages 62-69.

Similar to the Spin-Lock anchors but with the advantage of being quickly set and tensioned in one torque operation
using a Constant Torque Nut. These anchors are often used where pattern bolting of slope stabilization or tunneling proj-
ects require a medium duty fast production anchor.
The nut has a special compressed end that acts initially as a setting tool and then under a higher torque overcomes
the compressed threads in the nut to allow the nut to torque against the bearing plate to further set and tension the
anchor in one step.

Williams 150 KSI All-Thread-Bar should not be sub-
jected to the heat of a torch, welding or used as a
ground. Field cutting should be done with an abrasive
wheel or band saw.
Si zes Si zes
Williams 150 KSI bars are manufactured in 5 diameters
from 1 (26 mm) through 2-1/2 (65 mm). Most diameters
are available in continuous lengths up to 50 (15.2 m).
St eel Qual i t y St eel Qual i t y
Williams 1, 1-1/4, & 1-3/8 150 KSI bars are smooth,
hot rolled, high strength prestressing steel. The bars are
cold-stressed and stress relieved to produce the above
properties. The 1-3/4 & 2-1/2 150 KSI bars are cold
rolled and stressed relieved. All bars are produced to
ASTM A722-98 physical standards.
Thorough inspection and traceability are carried out
during all phases of manufacturing to assure the highest
standards of quality. Mill certifications and certificates of
conformance can be provided with each shipment as an
assurance that the mechanical properties of Williams All-
Thread-Bar are as shown.
T Tensi l e St r engt h & ensi l e St r engt h & W Wor ki ng Loads or ki ng Loads
Williams 150 KSI bars are available with ultimate ten-
sile strengths and working loads as displayed above.
Safety factors and functional working loads are at the
discretion of the project design engineer, however test
loads should never exceed 80% of the published ultimate
bar strength.
Pr oper t i es Pr oper t i es
Williams 150 KSI bars are manufactured in strict com-
pliance with ASTM A722-98 and AASHTO M275
Highway Specifications. The prestressing steel is high in
strength yet ductile enough to exceed the specified elon-
gation and reduction of area requirement. Selected
heats can also pass the 135 supplemental bend test
when required. Testing has shown Williams 150 KSI All-
Thread-Bars to meet or exceed post tensioning bar and
rock anchoring criteria as set by the Post Tensioning
Institute including dynamic test requirements beyond
500,000 cycles of loading.
Williams 360 continuous thread deformation pattern
has the ideal relative rib area configuration to provide
excellent bond strength capability to grout or concrete,
far better than traditional reinforcing deformation pat-
terns.
Thr eads Thr eads
All-Thread-Bars are cold threaded to close tolerances
under continuous monitoring procedures for quality con-
trol. Threads for Williams 150 KSI bar are specially
designed with a rugged thread pitch wide enough to be
fast under job site conditions and easy to assemble.
They also have a smooth, wide, concentric, surface suit-
able for torque tensioning. This combination offers
tremendous installation savings over inefficient, hot
rolled, non-concentric thread forms.
Williams All-Thread-Bars are threaded around the full
circumference enabling the load transfer from the bar to
the fasteners to occur efficiently without eccentric point
loading. Williams fasteners easily meet the allowable
load transfer limitations set forth by the Post Tensioning
Institute (of the United States). Williams 150 KSI All-
Thread-Bars and fasteners are machined to tight toler-
ances for superior performance and mechanical lock.
Precision machining greatly reduces concern of fastener
loosening or detensioning. 150 KSI bars meet or
exceed the deformation requirements under ASTM A615
for concrete reinforcing bars. Williams special thread
deformation pattern projects ultra high relative rib area,
much greater than conventional rebar. This provides for
superior bond performance in concrete.

Williams Grade 75 All-Thread Rebar
has a cold rolled, continuous, rounded
course thread form. Because of the full
360 concentric thread form, Williams All-
Thread Rebar should only be bent under
special provisions. Williams special
thread (deformation) pattern projects ultra
high relative rib area at 3 times that of con-
ventional rebar. This provides for superior
bond performance in concrete.

Our R6J Grade 60 Rebar is most often used in resin bolting or for anchor dowels. Depending on the application it
may be more economical than Williams R61 Grade 75 All-Thread Rebar, however, the installer does not have the flex-
ability of a continuous workable thread. Williams offers threaded end rebar in the following sizes.

These adjustable angle washers are self aligning and
provide full hex nut bearing. They can be used with
Domed Plates or with thicker standard plates with cham-
fered holes. Use a hardened flat washer between the nut
and spherical washer.
Domed Pl at es Domed Pl at es
Domed plates allow for the optimum use of Williams
Spherical Washers to provide high angles of variation
between the bar and the plate. Plate sizes listed below
are standard. Other sizes are available.
Const ant T Const ant Tor que Nut s or que Nut s
These hex nuts have a special compressed end to allow a predictable torque resistance
while torquing the nut/bar on the outer end of a threaded anchor bar. This resistance allows the
bar to be rotated by the constant torque nut to mix polyester resin or to initially set a mechani-
cal bail anchor. After the resin sets or the bail anchor is set, the nut can then be torqued to a
higher torque to tension the anchor to the required load for a one step installation. Some of the
torque resistance will remain on the nut after the initial break away torque.
Constant Torque Nuts are available with UNC or All-Thread Rebar type threads. Allow 1/16
to 1/8 increase in the hex size of the drive socket tool for allowance of the compressed end of
these nuts. Available for bar sizes listed above. See your Williams representative for the size
and torque requirements for this product.

Williams has combined the spherical seat washer with a square nut to deliver a one piece
fastener that will both spin the bar and then self align as it contacts the bearing plate. This nut
features a constant torque compressed ring to allow a predictable torque resistance similar to
the constant torque nuts above. Some of the torque resistance will remain on the nut after the
initial break away torque of approximately 70 ft./lbs. The nut is available only with 1-1/8
square drive and for the following bar sizes: #6 Grade 75 All-Thread Rebar, 3/4-10 and 7/8-9
UNC, and 3/4-4-1/2 Coil.
Br eak Br eak Away Dome Squar e Nut Away Dome Squar e Nut
This square nut has a thick washer bearing surface and a hollow dome that can be com-
pressed to create the constant torque feature. Unlike the other constant torque nuts, there is no
torque resistance after the initial break away torque. The nut is available only with 1-1/8
square drive and for the following bar sizes: #6 Grade 75 All-Thread Rebar, 3/4-10 and 7/8-9
UNC, and 3/4-4-1/2 Coil.
Note: During installation using constant torque nuts of any type, ensure that the drill hammer is off or the steel shank
in the drive steel has been shortened to eliminate any hammering in the drive steel.

Conforms to ASTM C 845-76 T
Wil-X is chemically compensated for shrinkage. It has a
high bond value and is crack resistant for permanent installa-
tions. Because it is a cement-grout, it is non-explosive and has
a long shelf life when kept dry.
Wil-X may be used to build up leveling pads by simply mix-
ing with sand or pea gravel. This mixture should not be run
through the grout pump.
Setting Time: Gilmore Needles (ASTMC 266). Initial set
45 minutes; final set 10 hours.
Comparative compressive strength test in PSI (modified
ASTM C 109)* 3 days in moist air / 4 days in water =2800 PSI.)
Actual strengths as mixed according to Williams instructions

Gr out Socks Gr out Socks
What was once considered to be an
impossible anchorage is made easy with a
practical solution from Williams. We put
Grout Socks on our grout bonded anchors
for difficult bonding applications such as
anchors in weak coral or sandstone, highly
fractured rock that can't retain grout, under-
water holes in a tidal zone, or holes with
artesian flowing water that would normally
wash the grout away. The grout sock fabric
allows a limited amount of grout through the
sock to provide a maximum bond. Also,
since the socks are individually manufac-
tured to allow twice the amount of grout as
your drill hole volume, the grout completely
fills the hole under pressure while sealing up
adjacent cracks and voids in the rock. This
creates a mechanical lock between the
anchor grout column and the rough drill hole
surface.
