Anchor Bot
An anchor bolt, as the name suggests, is a piece similar to an anchor made from steel rebar, with the upper part threaded. It is used to connect a tower or base to the foundation. An important consideration is selecting the appropriate type of anchor bolt based on the structural features such as height, weight, bending moment, etc., which we will discuss further.
Factors Affecting Anchor Bolt Selection
- Tower Specifications: Height of the tower, weight along with the relevant equipment, and the bending moment derived from structural calculations.
- Foundation Dimensions: The area of the foundation and the volume of concrete pouring also affect the diameter of the anchor bolt.
- Embedding Depth: The embedding depth is directly related to determining the dimensions of the anchor bolt.
Anchor Bolt Pricing
Factors that directly affect the price of anchor bolts include: anchor diameter, anchor length, bend length, and thread coating (galvanization: because the anchor bolt threads are exposed outside the concrete, they are susceptible to rusting, which is why galvanized coating is used on the threads to prevent corrosion).

Stirrups
Anchor bolts alone do not provide the necessary resistance to torsional and shear forces, and during an earthquake, irreparable damage may occur. To prevent this and increase the resistance of anchor bolts, lateral reinforcement bars, called stirrups, are used. According to global standards, two reinforcement bars should be placed every 15 cm with a stirrup. Additionally, the ends of the stirrups are bent inward at a 135-degree angle to better withstand the pressure exerted on the structure. Nik Noor Company, with its experienced technical team, performs all calculations in a fully engineered manner and provides them to you.
