Abstract (en)

The ground anchor has a base (1) to support an above-ground structure, and a line (2) connecting the base to an anchoring element (3) driven into the ground (4) through a hole (11), with an elastic element (81,82) to apply a tension to the upper end of the line. A projection (123) on the underside of the base is fitted into the top of the hole (11), and the line is taken through a hole in the bottom of the projection and immobilised by a given pressure from the elastic elements. The hole (11) is of greater diameter than the line (2), and once the anchoring element has been positioned in the ground and the line tensioned the hole is filled with a dense and quasi-incompressible material.
