Common Projects and Applications

Bridges

Bridge Bearing Anchor Bolts

F1554 is specified for bridge applications including bearings, approach slabs, steel railings, and other critical components.

Steel Buildings

Steel Building Structure

Structural engineers have identified F1554 as the go-to specification for steel. Due to its versatility, it is used to support building columns and steel bearing plates.

Light Rail

Light Rail Catenary Poles

Catenary poles, used to hold the electrical systems for light rail projects, are increasingly using F1554 anchor rods support the poles.

Light Poles

Light Pole

Both bent anchor bolts and straight anchor rods are common configurations in light pole foundation designs.

Traffic Signals

Pole Base with Anchor Bolts

The configurations for traffic signal bases often use large diameter anchor bolts to support the large structures. Since these bolts are exposed to the elements they are usually hot-dip galvanized.

Industrial Equipment

Industrial Jobsite

Refineries, ethanol plants, water treatments facilities, and other industrial projects commonly use F1554 anchor bolts to secure equipment, pipe racking, and steel structures.

Water Storage Tanks

Water Tower

Water storage towers and standpipes use all three grades of F1554 anchor rods. Bolt circles often contain 8 or more anchor bolts.
