The ironing system for FREE FLOORS

COMPACTGROUND GS is our bracket system for open-space projects that do not require driven pile foundations. The structure is secured in place using ground anchors, ballast, or a combination of both—this allows the attachment points and load to be adapted to the soil conditions and wind loads, rather than using a single foundation type across the entire area. The brackets and ground anchors are hot-dip galvanized; the system has been wind tunnel tested and bears the CE mark.

The system is designed specifically for smaller open-space projects, challenging soil conditions, and special sites such as landfills. The ground anchors are installed using a hammer drill, eliminating the need for a pile driver on site. Whether ground anchors, ballast, or a hybrid solution is appropriate is determined on a project-by-project basis based on soil conditions and wind loads.

Because they can be driven into the ground with a hammer drill and removed thanks to their external thread. This allows a nail to be repositioned if it encounters an obstacle; it can also be removed during demolition. When used in combination with ballast trays, anchor points and ballast can be distributed to accommodate the project’s wind loads.

COMPACTGROUND GS can be secured using ground anchors, stone ballast, or a hybrid solution combining both methods. Ground anchors secure the system brackets to the ground, while ballast trays provide additional weight. This combination allows anchor points and ballast to be distributed according to soil conditions, wind loads, and project requirements.

The two lengths serve different purposes. The 800-millimeter ground anchors are intended for applications where frost heave needs to be prevented. The shorter 450-millimeter stakes are intended, among other things, for landfills and for use in combination with ballast trays. The length used must be appropriate for the nature and intended use of the site.

Two. The COMPACTGROUND GS10 PLUS positions the modules at a 10-degree angle in an east-west orientation; the system filter does not account for a shading angle in this case. COMPACTGROUND GS15 operates with a 15-degree south-facing orientation and a shading angle of more than 20 degrees. Both models can be secured using stone ballast, ground stakes, or a combination of both.

The GS10 PLUS is suitable for a dense east-west layout with a 10-degree tilt. The GS15 is designed for a south-facing orientation with a 15-degree tilt and corresponding row spacing. Which variant offers greater benefits depends on the site layout, the desired orientation, and project-specific planning.

The ballast tray holds stones as ballast. It complements ground anchors or is part of a purely ballasted design. The trough is available in lengths of 450 and 900 millimeters; the matching ballast retention bracket prevents the stones from slipping within the trough and ensures they are evenly distributed.

The COMPACTGROUND GS10 PLUS leaflet is available for preliminary selection, and the joint intake form for GS10 PLUS and GS15 is available for project preparation. Separate assembly instructions are available for the COMPACTGROUND GS15 and COMPACTGROUND GS10 PLUS; the ground anchor pull-out test kit is also listed in the download section. The download section currently also includes documentation for the flat-roof system of the same name, COMPACTFLAT GS. Therefore, please make sure to use the full product name.
