Guy Anchors
Select a suitable piece of wood which will span the hole, drill 1 hole Ø10.5 mm through and secure
the ground anchor to the wood at an angle of 45° using a suitable bolt as shown in fig 5, suspend in
the hole as shown ensuring they are in the correct position & orientation.
Mix approx 0.5m³ of concrete and fill the five holes ensuring the concrete is well packed down and air
removed. Ensure all inserts are correctly positioned & allow to harden for 2 days.
Note: The holes can be filled with concrete first and the foundation bolts and ground anchors pushed
in immediately afterwards if this is found to be easier.
