    DYWI Drill Hollow Bars Secure the Future of


    Granary Island in Gdansk

    t the junction of the


    Motawa River and the
    Dead Vistula River lies
    a block of land known as Granary
    Island, located in the heart of the
    famous Amber district in downtown
    Gdansk. Until 1945, Granary
    Island was an important part of
    the citys industry with wharfs and
    warehouses. In the course of time,
    the island was slowly being lost to
    the two rivers, which caused both
    landslides and increasing damage
    to the quayside.
    Due to the citys growing economy
    and tourist industry, it became more
    and more important to stabilize both
    quaysides and deepen the waterway
    along the Motawa River in the Gdask
    area. To stabilize the quaysides, 1,036
    T76-1200 DYWI Drill Hollow Bar
    Anchors with a total length of 23,930m
    were chosen as the tie back solution
    for the new sheet piles.
