Interaction of Anchors with Soil and Anchor Design
Abstract
The report provides a practical up-to-date guide that enables the practicing engineer to select and size common anchor types, including direct- embedment anchors, deadweight anchors, drag-embedment anchors, and pile anchors. For each anchor type, the report includes site survey recommendations, a brief description of various anchors within each anchor category, methods for determining anchor performance, and, in certain cases, suggestions for improving poor anchor behavior. Sources for additional information are suggested where the treatment of a broad topic is necessarily limited.
