Estimation of Uplift Capacity of Horizontal Plate Anchor in Sand

In this paper a detailed analysis of breakout resistance of a horizontally laid anchor plate in sandy soil is presented. To compute the distribution of soil reactive pressure on the failure surface, Kötter’s equation is employed. The failure surface is assumed to be in the form of a cone. An analytical expression for the breakout resistance is derived. Results are reported in terms of the breakout factors and net breakout resistance. A comparison is made with the available experimental data and theoretical solutions.

Rebar Anchor Plate Research and Application

Recently, rebar anchor plate has been widely used in the project, which solve the rebar anchor problem and improve the construction quality. This paper introduced the rebar mechanical anchorage technology background, research content and progress, and rebar anchor plate application, which would offer the guidance and reference for the designers and constructors.
