What is Load Testing and Why is it Important?
Tuesday 6th April 2021
Load testing is an essential part of any project, and many different products require this type of testing. Load testing determines the ability of a product to withstand and perform under a proposed loading. When using a product correctly and within the approved loads, then load testing guarantees the product will hold safely. Why is load testing necessary? Load testing is crucial as it ensures that a product can withstand a certain weight or force safely. The defined number is known as the Safe Working Load (SWL). You must always adhere to the SWL to ensure maximum safety and no chance of product failure. At Spirafix, we carry out regular testing of our ground anchor range and compare load results…

The benefits of installing a Solar Carport
Thursday 19th March 2020
What is a Solar Carport? Solar carports are ground-mounted solar panels that are installed above parking areas and they are one of the fastest-growing trends within the solar industry! Any car park can be used, so they can be installed in business parks, grocery stores, airports, park & ride lots, anywhere! Benefits of Solar Carports Minimise Energy Expenses Which leads to significant savings! The electricity generated can be used by the business providing the land, and then the excess can be stored or sold back to the National Grid. Electricity is susceptible to rate increases, and a solar carport can help hedge against rising utility costs by lowering energy bills and making them more predictable. Carbon Footprint Reduction By installing a solar carport…

Can I use Spirafix for a timber building and decking project?
Monday 24th September 2018
As part of our education strategy we've include here one of our most frequently asked questions -can I use Spirafix for a timber building or decking project? We have had our spiral anchors tested for this application and they are suitable. Spirafix ground anchors will sustain at least the same load when being pushed into the ground as when be pulled out. However, the requirement for a foundation application is that any building load must be sustained over a long period of time. This will cover ground conditions at their weakest, which is during prolonged wet weather. Also clays will have surface heave and shrinkage during these climatic changes. This means that any anchor being used needs to be de-rated for…

Do I need to prepare the ground before I install Spirafix Ground Anchors?
Monday 3rd September 2018
A great question and one we get asked frequently. No you don't need to prepare the ground before you start your install. Spirafix are designed to cope with hard ground conditions and drive down into position on their own helix. They are installed via impact, so they are a 'hammer in' anchor. They are NOT twisted into position, so normally a lump hammer (for smaller anchors), sledge hammer (medium sized anchors) or power tool can be used. Spirafix can be installed down through tarmac by creating a small pilot hole first and then driving the anchor down through the pilot hole. If you need to install in concrete then a core will need to be drilled out. We advise you…

After high winds Spirafix remain rock solid
Monday 26th February 2018
It's always great to recieve good feedback, so we were delighted when Morgan Denton, Project Manager at Attend2IT sent us this lovely email. ''We use the Spirafix system to secure the guy lines for our 20M temporary telecoms masts. Normal ground anchors slip over time and need to be checked on regularly and smacked back down. It was when a mast was hit with over 60mph winds for three days on low laying wet ground that we realised just how good they are. After three days of gusty high winds which would normally be too much for a standard ground stake and would force us to drop the mast, we found the Spirafix Ground Anchors simply hadn't moved! They were as…
'The Grand Tour' - and how Spirafix Ground Anchors helped out
Monday 12th February 2018
We recently worked on a project for the Amazon Prime series 'The Grand Tour' featuring Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May for the episode 'Breaking Badly'. As usual the Grand Tour Team were on top form behaving badly and they needed the Spirafix Team to securely fix a jet engine to the ground at Huddersfield International Airport where they were causing mayhem and creating laughs. The stunt itself however was no laughing matter and the H&S team were, quite rightly, watching our every move to ensure compliance with safety regs. They needed 12 tonnes of force to fix the 6 tonnes of thrust from the turbine safely and securely to the ground. We installed 6 of our 75mm anchors and 12 of…

Galvanised Spirafix Ground Anchors provide simple solution for tethering floating offices
Monday 6th November 2017
Louise Lewis, Marketing Manager
Our installation team were on site at Arlington Business Park, Reading recently to help out on another interesting project. One of our clients is develping floating office space and needed an easy to install, safe and secure solution for anchoring the office to the lake side. We galvanised just 8 of our 2.2 metre, 75mm spirafix ground anchors and delivered them to site to install them with a hydraulic installer - using a 30 litre power pack providng 95 joules of impact energy. These spirafix will be used as anchor points and needed to be safe and secure so the ground anchors, which twist down into position on their own helix with each impact blow, were installed quite close together for a…
Solar panels installed in challenging location
Monday 25th September 2017
Louise Lewis, Marketing Manager
We recently installed a number of ground mounted solar panels for a client who had a fairly challenging location. On a long, narrow, uneven and fairly steep stretch of greenfield we were asked to oversee installaiton to ensure accuracy was achieved. The client told us that Spirafix Ground Anchors had been chosen because they could be installed in fairly difficult locations - the soil type was perfect for the helical anchor but the fairly steep bank was awkward as all ground mounted panels needed to be in near perfect alignment. It turned out to be a fairly straightforward install and we were very pleased, yet again, with the results. If you have a project, large or small, call us to…
