JO MORRIS | FASTENER TRAINING INSTITUTE ASPHALT ANCHORS ASPHALT ANCHORS KEEP MODULAR BUILDINGS GROUNDED from page 62 BoltHold anchors securely hold down equipment to asphalt without damage to the asphalt surface. A number of models are available to meet pull force and shear resistance requirements. To hold down the modular structure, Anchor Modular selected the SP12, rated at 2,000 lb. pull resistance. Installation was quick — drilling one-inch diameter holes in the asphalt, filling the holes with the special grout provided by AAC, then pushing the anchors all the way until flush with the asphalt. After 15 minutes each anchor was ready for use. The provided bolt is removed from the installed anchor, and the strap is bolted to the anchor. The asphalt anchors’ unique properties and installation made it easy for Dooley’s team to install them without cracking or ruining the surrounding asphalt. After the installation was completed, a conformity pull test was performed on a sampling of the anchors to ensure that they would remain secure in compliance with local building codes. The BoltHold anchors had beaten the goal of 1,800 pounds of resistance per anchor, by resisting 5,400 pounds. “We certainly were very impressed,” Dooley said. “Not only with how well it performed, but also with how easy it was to install. When we have such an application again, you can bet we’ll use Asphalt Anchors.” Anchor Modular Buildings is a one-stop shop for such structures. Since 2002 Anchor Modular has been PULL TEST USING FORKLIFT constructing commercial structures to meet needs of industrial, military, transportation, education, petrochemical, manufacturing and other organizations. With factories throughout the country, Anchor Modular provides quality, reliable and cost-effective modular installations. ASPHALT ANCHORS CORP.
