New! PTI DC35.1-14: Recommendations for Prestressed Rock and Soil Anchors

This publication represents the current state of the art in the design and construction of permanent and temporary prestressed rock and soil anchors using high-strength prestressing steel. The recommendations provide practical guidance for the design, installation, and testing of prestressed rock and soil anchors.

These recommendations supersede the 2004 edition and include major revisions in the requirements for: • Added "Extended Temporary Anchor" category • All permanent anchors = Class I protection • Added "Special Prestressing Materials" section • Minimum tendon bond length requirements • Improved guidance for anchorage protection • Improved guidance for coupler protection • New reference to ADSC grouted wedge testing • Improved guidance for repair of corrosion protection • Additional guidance for evaluating creep movement • Improved decision tree for anchors that fail • Guidance for epoxy-coated strand has been updated, remains in supplement section.

This document was prepared by the PTI Committee for Prestressed Rock and Soil Anchors (DC-35) with input and review by the Anchored Earth Retention Committee of the International Association of Foundation Drilling.
