Abstract: | Inclined anchors are widely used in a variety of civil engineering problems to resist oblique loads, most relevant being in
transmission towers and in rocks and dams for structural strengthening. In the present study, the breakout resistance of the
inclined anchors in sand has been worked out using limit equilibrium approach. The breakout resistance has been calculated
for different soil friction angles with varying relative depth ratio and anchor inclination. The break out factor increases
continuously with the inclination of the anchor. A comparison of predicted values of break out resistance of anchors by the
proposed analysis with the experimental values as reported by the other researchers showed reasonably good agreement. |
