Ground Anchor Test Case

A company was commissioned to test five different site areas within Glastonbury for different staging and other temporary structures ahead of the festival, which runs from 22nd to 26th June. Our checks involved testing various sized anchors for different loads to determine what anchors were required for staging and other temporary fixtures for the festival.

We always recommend carrying out site tests to determine the capability of local ground conditions. We can provide this testing service, as we have done for Glastonbury, or you can purchase suitable test equipment that consists of a tripod, threaded bar, load cell and all of the sundry items required to establish Spirafix load requirements.

One of the areas where we carried testing out had specific loading requirements. These conditions were met successfully after conducting our tests using different sized anchors.

This company has a deep-seated knowledge and understanding of ground anchoring and vast experience gained from working with customers across many years. This knowledge and expertise allowed us to complete testing of each of the five sites within Glastonbury within just one day.
