President's Message
First, we thank all of you who have cared for and encouraged SAMWOO. SAMWOO was established on Oct. 22nd, 1993, and has continued to endeavor to become the best company in connection to Ground Anchors. Through our consistent development of ground anchor and various tests, we are endeavoring to enable safer and economically efficient construction, based on perfect quality management. We obtained the ISO 9001 international certificate for the first time in the nation, in the design/production and additional services field for ground anchors. We are equipped with outstanding R&D abilities as a small size business, having a R&D department, Venture enterprise certificate, and INNOBIZ certificate, and became the representative company in the Korean Anchor industry by obtaining various certifications that prove our advanced management performance, marketability, and future potential. SAMWOO is ceaselessly endeavoring to grow into a world class company from the leading enterprise in the Korean anchor industry, instead of being satisfied with the present status, through various overseas business activities, such as establishing a branch in Vietnam and business partnerships with foreign construction companies. We are realizing our vision of distributing the Korean anchor technology around the world. Everyone, including individuals and companies who conduct designing, construction, auditing, and supervising regarding the ground anchors! Here we are, the best for any work regarding anchors. The SAMWOO family can solve any problems you may have. If there is a need to design and install ground anchors in the moon, SAMWOO will take care of it.

Ground Anchor
Ground Anchor
Ground anchor is a system that stabilizes the structure against excessive transformation, or displacement by fixing a highly strong tension member such as the P.C. strand to both sides of the inner ground and the structure and applying Pre-Stress. Ground anchors are widely used to stabilize structures at various domestic and overseas construction and engineering sites with its outstanding economical quality and constructability for the past 50 years since its commercialization.

SW-RCD Anchor
SW-RCD Anchor System
The strong points of using anchors for constructions in urban centers include effective construction management and shortening of the construction period, but this also caused serious problems, due to the difficulties in removing the tension members in later construction works or when issuing usage permits for nearby areas. Especially, the strength per cross section of P.C. strands that are used as tension members are about six times stronger than normal steel rods, which makes it very difficult to remove the stands buried in the ground, causing much loss of excavation equipments and drilling equipments due to the anchors used at the nearby construction sites. Therefore, a removable anchor was developed to enable the removal of the P.C. strands according to the construction process after completing the excavation process, which is now being widely used. The SW-RCD anchor system, a compressive-distributive type removable anchor that can be removed after usage, is a representative anchor product developed and commercialized by SAMWOO for the past years. SAMWOO had obtained numerous patents for this product, and since this product can be removed by man force without requiring cranes or backhoes such as the existing U-Turn anchors, it is a removable anchor system that is most efficient in various aspects, such as time, space and cost.

SW-PCD Anchor
SW-PCD Anchor System
SW-PCD anchor system is a compressive-distributive type permanent anchor, developed and commercialized by SAMWOO. Unbonded P.C. strands are used as tension members, having outstanding corrosion and rust protection. The block also has sealing structure that has outstanding corrosion protection. SW-PCD permanent anchor system separately confines the strands with grips to maximize the performance of the strands, and since it does not apply concentrated load to the ground, being a compressive-distributive type anchor, it can minimize the creep due to the load, and also, the allowed anchoring force can be adjusted according to the ground condition. Also, since its fixation location is flexible, it can secure the necessary load easily as well as re-tension, even if the bearing plate or block subsides due to the lack of the supporting force of the main floor.
10
Structure / Specification
To strengthen the merits of the compressive-distributive type anchor, we separately confined the strands bound to the block. Such separated confining system is a system that bounds the insert to the inside of the Grip, assembles the strand, and completely bounds by pushing it into the device with a small diameter.

SW-PTF Anchor
SW-PTF Anchor System
SW-PTF anchor system is a tensile-frictional type permanent anchor system, which has been widely used in Korea and overseas, with sufficient research results and application history. It has outstanding corrosion and rust protection, and is used for various permanent purposes such as lift up resistance, supplementation and stabilization of cut sections at new load and additional construction area, stabilization of slope, supplementation of walls, and stabilization of tunnel pit mouths based on its advanced quality obtained through standard production process. There are two types according to the form of the Nose-con; an open type and a closed type.

Anchor Test
Anchor Test Service
SAMWOO began anchor tests in 1998, first in the anchor industry, and has been conducting various anchor tests over hundreds of times domestically and overseas during the past 10 years, including performance tests, proof tests, creep tests, and Lift-Off Tests. Our accruing technologies and know-how is contributing to the development of related industries, and is being the foundation of development and producing better anchor products.
Performance Test
Proof Test
Proof tests are conducted to prove and evaluate the fact that the performances of all the anchors are fit for the site condition.
Creep Test
Creep tests are conducted to judge whether the load has been decreased due to the anchor's creep (relaxation of the strand, creep of the grout, ground, bonded anchor length), and its purpose is in determining the creep's tendency than quantitatively judging it. Extended creep test takes a long time (about 8 hours). This test is for measuring the creep transformation of the anchor, and is required for anchors built into clay grounds that have plasticity indexes of 20 or more, and liquid limits of 50 or more.
Proof Test
Lift-Off Test
Lift-off test is conducted to confirm the tension of the ground anchor that has already been fixed. Refer to the test result as data for the malignance of the tension.

Production Facility
SAMWOO has a production factory, comprising two production buildings, one office, and one laboratory and dormitory (a total of four buildings) in a 1.7 acre land in Gimpo city, Gyeonggi-do. We apply standardized production processes and semi-automated processes, and have a total of four production lines, including two RCD lines for the production of SW-RCD anchor system, one PCD line for SW-PCD anchor systems, and a PTF line for SW-PTF anchor systems.
