The results of a study of the behaviour of buried suction anchors tested singly and in a group arrangement are presented and discussed. The tests were conducted in saturated granular soil, contained in a 1.8 m diameter tank, in both loose and dense s...

SAHOTA, B.S. 1979. The break-out behaviour of a suction anchor embedded in a granular soil. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, MPhil thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993204

The thesis describes an experimental investigation into the uplift behaviour of hemispherical suction anchors embedded in saturated sand. Anchor types are briefly discussed. Some existing theories related to plate-type anchors, for uplift foundations... Read More about The break-out behaviour of a suction anchor embedded in a granular soil..
