The invention provides a stressing device, a nose cone for a stressing device, a locking device for a stressing assembly, a locking assembly for a stressing assembly, a stressing assembly and to a method of installing a stressing device in civil engineering and mining. A first aspect of the invention provides for reading installation parameters provided on a component of the stressing assembly, when installing the stressing assembly and using these parameters to install the stressing assembly. A second aspect provides an axial stressing device for axially stressing a stressing assembly, which includes an axial load applying mechanism and an axial load sensor for sensing the axial load applied, in use, to a locking device of the stressing assembly with a corresponding method of installing a stressing assembly. A third aspect provides a stressing device for stressing a stressing assembly, which includes a data storage unit for storing an installation parameter of the stressing assembly when it is installed and extends to a corresponding method of installing a stressing assembly which includes storing installation parameters of the stressing assembly and transferring the data subsequently to an administrative system. |
