Helical bearing plates are spaced along the entire length of screw anchors. These true-spiral helices install with ease and minimal soil disturbance. Monitoring torque during installation accurately indicates expected holding capacity.

Technical support and pre-engineered system for design flexibility and standards compliance.
The SOIL SCREW™ Retention Wall System is based on more than 80 years of earth-anchor research and development by ISO-certified manufacturer A. B. Chance Company, which also markets to electric utilities, telecommunications and pipeline industries worldwide.
