Anchors, Bolts and Nails

  • Chapter
Book cover Handbook of Slope Stabilisation

Abstract

This chapter addresses anchors, bolts and nails employed for slope stabilisation in rock and soils. They are semi-rigid inclusions inserted into the ground to resist mainly tension forces, but also shear forces. This chapter addresses permanent inclusions only.
