Concrete foundation and flood wall anchor bolts

Above is the system in its (nearly) "invisible" state. The wall is yet to be erected, and the only visible components of the wall are the reinforced concrete foundation, the embedded base plates, and anchor bolts (the headless storage bolts, which keep the profile flat, have been removed while the headed anchor bolts wait to be lubricated). Also visible is an expansion joint in the foundation.

All bolts (anchor and storage) should be lubricated before use. For larger applications, it's a good idea to lube the entire run ahead of erecting the rest of the components.
