HGA Bracket Data Sheet

HGA Bracket
Load-rated device for quickly connecting tilt-up brace shoes to helical ground anchors
The Helical Ground Anchor
(HGA) Bracket provides a simple connection point between HGAs and tilt-up braces. The design eliminates the need to remove, then reattach, pipe brace shoes. The pipe brace shoe bolts directly to the bracket.
The tilt-up panel engineering, bracing and anchoring requirements will determine which HGA Bracket is the most effective.
HGA Bracket in 1-Bolt configuration with and without brace shoe.
HGA Bracket in 2-Bolt configuration with and without brace shoe.

* Safe Working Load based on 1.67:1 safety factor.
** Capacity of Helical Ground Anchor may control design.
Each configuration of the HGA Bracket comes with 3/4” x 4” grade 8 bolts for fastening the HGA Bracket to the shoes and a grade 8 bolt and nut for fastening the bracket to the HGA.
Note: The load-ratings of the helical ground anchor, tilt-up brace and HGA Bracket must be considered simultaneously for maximum allowable capacity and spacing.
Note: Helical Ground Anchor, Pipe Brace, and/or soil conditions may be the controlling factor. Capacities for all components must be considered when engineering a bracing configuration.
