Execution of Special Geotechnical Works - Ground Anchors
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1537 standard provides guidelines for the installation and monitoring of both permanent and temporary ground anchors. It specifically focuses on anchors that can be stressed and tested according to the EN ISO 22477-5 standard.
This standard acknowledges that the planning and design of ground anchors require specialized knowledge and experience in the field. While EN 1997-1 Eurocode 7 briefly covers these topics, DIN EN 1537 provides more detailed guidance for the execution of ground anchors.
It's important to note that this standard does not address alternative systems of anchoring, such as tension piles, screw anchors, mechanical anchors, soil nails, expander anchors, or deadman anchors. Its scope is limited to the specific requirements and procedures for ground anchor installation and monitoring.
