Moorage

Mooring fields for municipal and private harbors are a cost effective way to safely store your boats.

CHANCE Mooring Screw Anchor can offer a simple, economical mooring for boats requiring holding capacities to 100,000 pounds or even more. These moorings are so effective that in areas subject to hurricanes special incentives are often offered by insurance companies to boat owners who use these moorings.

CHANCE Screw Anchors are installed into the harbor bottom by either work boats or divers using hydraulic rotary installing equipment with anti-torque devices. The bearing plates are installed through the silt to good bearing soils and the chains or lines are connected to the mooring or platforms above. The same anchors are used in the fast growing aqua-culture field holding fish cages securely to the ocean bottoms.

 

Highway, Airports, Railway: Signs, Lights & Equipment

Critical signal transmitters or receivers need stable foundations. The CHANCE INSTANT FOUNDATION® System screw anchors meet this criteria and are the preferred system by many organizations.

The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) often uses this system on PAPI and NAVAID systems (landing and navigational control systems.) to place foundation systems deep in the soil below frost heave and expansive soil movements. The same is true for railroad signal boxes and emergency call boxes along highway systems. Simply positioning the foundation anchor and rotating it into the ground gives the structure a stable high performance foundation.

Economical, readily available, predictable and measurable capacity during installation are some of the advantages of the CHANCE INSTANT FOUNDATION System. We have available information on applications, on wind generators, satellite receivers, solar panels, and other devices requiring stable foundations.
