A horizontal anchor is a structural member designed to resist the vertical pullout forces and
ensure the stability of structures like the tower foundations, masts and bridges. This paper …

The paper investigates the behaviour of groups of horizontal square anchor plates in
geogrid-reinforced sand using laboratory model tests. The optimum spacing for two anchor …

On the premise of following the concept of culture heritage conservation, the technique of
wooden bolt anchorage plays an important role in the conservation of rammed earthen sites …

The intrusion of deformable compound anchors in dry sand is simulated by coupling the
Finite Element Method (FEM) with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). This novel …

To optimize the distance between the bells in pile design, this paper reports a series of small
scale tests on the uplift capacity of double belled piles embedded in dry dense sand …

The vertical uplift resistance of two interfering rigid rough strip anchors embedded
horizontally in sand at shallow depths has been examined. The analysis is performed by …

In this paper, numerical and analytical methods are used to evaluate the ultimate pullout
capacity of a group of square anchor plates in row or square configurations, installed …

The vertical uplift capacity of an infinite numbers of rigid strip plate anchors placed in a
group and embedded in sand, has been determined. An upper bound theorem of limit …

Anchor plates in groups are widely used to increase the uplift performance of foundations for
different structures. In this study, the influence of embedment depth, geogrid stiffness, and …

The lateral loading of a plate anchor is a complicated process that involves complex anchor‐
soil interactions. The deformation characteristics of the soil around an anchor have an …
