  • Releaseable steel cable anchor and method for withdrawing the same
    Patent number: 3936924
    Abstract: A releaseable steel cable anchor comprises a steel cable assembly encased within a thermoplastic resin which bonds the cable assembly to an anchor body embedded within the ground. Typically, the cable assembly is buried in a hole filled with a hardening material such as cement or mortar, which forms the anchor body. Either electrical heating wire or an elongated receptacle to receive a combustible material is provided along substantially the entire length of the resin encasing the cable assembly in order to melt and/or combust the resin material encasing the steel cables, whereupon the steel cables may be readily withdrawn from the anchor assembly.
