What are Active Rock Anchors?
Active Rock Anchors, also known as Prestressed Ground Anchors or Ground Anchor Systems, are high-capacity anchoring systems consisting of prestressing steel tendons installed into competent rock formations or engineered ground conditions and stressed using calibrated hydraulic jacking systems.
Unlike passive anchoring systems, Active Rock Anchors are prestressed during installation to introduce controlled stabilizing forces into the structure and surrounding ground mass. This process improves structural stability, controls deformation, minimizes displacement, and enhances the overall factor of safety of the structure.
Scon Infra Prestress provides engineered Active Rock Anchor solutions for projects subjected to:
Uplift forces
Lateral earth pressures
Hydrostatic pressures
Structural overturning moments
Slope instability
Geotechnical movement
Deep excavation challenges

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are Active Rock Anchors?
Active Rock Anchors are prestressed anchoring systems used to stabilize structures, slopes, retaining systems, and ground formations using tensioned steel tendons.
What is the difference between Active and Passive Rock Anchors?
Active Rock Anchors are prestressed during installation and provide immediate stabilization, while Passive Anchors resist loads only after structural movement occurs.
Where are Active Rock Anchors used?
They are widely used in bridges, dams, retaining walls, deep excavations, tunnels, marine infrastructure, metro projects, and hydropower structures.
Why is prestressing important in rock anchoring?
Prestressing introduces controlled stabilizing forces into the structure and surrounding ground mass, improving stability and reducing deformation.
