Theoretical Study of Behavior of Ground Anchor in Frictional Soil by the Use of the Kinematic Approach of Limit Analysis | Chapter 5 | Recent Advances in Science and Technology Research Vol. 7

 This paper presents the results of the theoretical study based on the kinematic method of the limit analysis for the production of the cohesionless soil (sand) failure mechanism around a single one; inclined soil anchor at tension time; and for the estimate of the limit load in the case of the Mohr-Coulomb criterion and the related flow law, taking into account the mobilisation of soil. On the collapse load, the impact of the inclination and length of the ground anchor, the friction angle of the soil (almost) and the dry density were examined. Through this analysis, the findings obtained by the theoretical approach were found to be greater than those obtained by the empirical approach (the recommendations T.A. 95).
