Anchors Replacement
FIXED ANCHORS
Fixed anchors replacement group is involved with at-the-crag work inspecting age-related fixed anchor factors that will be resolved via upgrade/replacement. Utilize modern effective methods and tools to ensure you achieve long-term fixed anchor capacity (i.e. using stainless bolts). CCA recommends basic enhanced fixed anchor guidelines or concepts. Analyze processional data on rock climbing route non-disparity margins and relative potential minimization options, versus enhanced yield recreational value (such as belay stations near the top of certain routes). Research and utilize new technological innovations on enhanced application concepts in fixed anchor protection methods and product improvements.
Objectively utilize existing fixed gear to its designed maximum age capacity through analysis (or stress testing where applicable), and effectively re-utilizing existing chambers (where the old material is successfully removed) to extend the super-life span of the existing original placement section.
