Vertical Uplift Capacity of Equally Spaced Multiple Strip Anchors in Sand
Jyant Kumar,Manas Kumar Bhoi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of clear spacing (s) between the anchors, for different combinations of embedment ratio (λ) of anchors and friction angle (ϕ) of soil mass, was examined in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pullout Capacity of a Vertical Plate Anchor Embedded in Cohesion-less Soil
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the ultimate pullout capacity of a shallow laid vertical plate strip anchor in cohesion-less soil with the consideration of active and passive states of limit equilibrium in the soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pullout capacity of embedded suction anchors in sand
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical solution has been developed to estimate the horizontal, vertical, and inclined loading pullout capacities of embedded suction anchors in sand, and validation of the analytical solution on pullout capacity has been made through comparisons with the centrifuge model test results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active and passive arching stresses outside a deep trapdoor
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated changes in the vertical soil pressure measured at various locations within a granular soil mass surrounding a deep rectangular trapdoor acting in both active and passive modes.

Extended limit design theorems for continuous media
TL;DR: In this paper, the safe loads for a Prandtl-Reuss material subject to surface tractions or displacements which increase in ratio are extended to any perfectly plastic material and any history of loading.

The Ultimate Uplift Capacity of Foundations
G G Meyerhof,J I Adams +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the ultimate uplift capacity of foundations with special reference to transmission tower footings is evaluated and a number of model uplift tests made by the authors and by others are studied and evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The behaviour of anchor plates in sand
R. K. Rowe,E. H. Davis +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a theoretical investigation into the behavior of anchor plates in sand, considering the effects of anchor embedment, friction angle, dilatancy, initial stress and initial stress on the anchor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breakout resistance of objects embedded in ocean bottom
TL;DR: For relatively shallow anchors in undisturbed dense and stiff soils, general shear along a convex, torical slip surface is observed as mentioned in this paper, which degenerates into a cylindrical surface for remolded, compressible and semiliquid soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Failure Loads of Vertical Anchor Plates in Sand
TL;DR: In this article, a series of tests on model anchor plates in sand are described in the form of dimensionless force coefficients and shape factors relating failure loads to the geometry of the anchor and its depth of embedment.
