Anti-Buoyancy

Controlling Pipeling Buoyancy With Ideal Helical Anchors

In below-grade structures exposed to high groundwater conditions, managing buoyancy becomes crucial. That’s where IDEAL Helical Anchors come into play. Specifically engineered to resist hydrostatic uplift pressures, these anchors offer a superior solution for buoyancy control systems.

Advantages of using anti-buoyancy helical anchors:

  • Hydrostatic Uplift Resistance: IDEAL Helical Anchors are designed to withstand hydrostatic uplift pressures effectively. By utilizing the soil’s shear strength and the weight of the soil above the helical flight, these anchors provide a robust defense against buoyancy forces.
  • Elimination of Dewatering: Unlike traditional methods that often require dewatering to control buoyancy, IDEAL Helical Anchors eliminate the need for extensive dewatering measures. This saves time, reduces costs, and minimizes project complexities associated with water removal.
  • Reduced Dependency on Friction & Structure’s Weight: IDEAL Helical Anchors offer an innovative approach to buoyancy control. Rather than relying solely on friction or the weight of the structure, these anchors leverage the soil’s shear strength to provide additional stability and resistance against uplift forces.
  • Cost-Effective & Practical: IDEAL Helical Anchors provide a cost-effective and practical solution for managing buoyancy in pipelines crossing wet or submerged areas. By avoiding labor-intensive and expensive methods like concrete counterweights, you can save both.
