Communication towers are critical to your business and constitute a significant part of your company’s assets. Maintaining their structural integrity is essential to safeguarding your investment.
The most significant threat to the safety and longevity of a guyed tower is underground anchor corrosion. Understanding and addressing the corrosion risk for each tower guy anchor can maximize its lifespan and prevent tower failure.
VIKOR is a national wireless infrastructure construction company with over 35 years of experience. Our team of dedicated professionals specializes in corrosion assessment and protection to ensure the utmost safety of your tower.
Corrosion risk for each tower can vary based on several factors. Guy anchor steel shafts in direct contact with soil should be assessed considering the tower's age, soil resistivity, moisture content, and pH levels.
VIKOR conducts specific tests to assess the corrosion risk for each of your towers and develops a specialized corrosion management plan to protect those at highest risk.
Once a corrosion assessment is complete and a course of action established, our team installs, high-quality AnchorGuard protection and retrofit or upgrades the anchor protection. AnchorGuard is a pre-engineered solution that allows us to monitor what can’t be seen beneath the soil and proactively monitor the safety of the tower guy anchors.
