Anchor Bolt – Fulfilling All Your Concrete Attachment Needs
An anchor bolt as the name suggests is used in anchoring, or holding any structure or object with the concrete. Different manufacturers have come up with a varied range of these bolts to suit their individual needs especially in construction sites like buildings, dams to nuclear power plants. However, all anchor bolts should have a threaded end with a nut and washer as attachment for external load.
Among the other anchor bolts are those that consist of a bent bolt with a hook on the end. There are also others, which come with some other sort of bending. Of all the anchor blot varieties, the Cast-in-place ones are the strongest and are used for heavy machines mounted on poured concrete floors. Nowadays, this type of anchor bolt is used to connect the concrete foundation of a building to its wall, in order to make them earthquake resistant.
