Effects of embedment depth on the pullout capacity of bucket foundations in sand
TLDR
In this paper, a series of 1g experimental tests was conducted to investigate the effects of embedment depth on the pullout capacity of bucket foundations in sand, and the results showed that a 50% increase in embedding depth resulted in an average increase in pullout capability of 40%.About:
