Mechanisms of Soil-anchor Interactions Based on Ideal Elastic-plastic Model

Based on ideal elastic-plastic significant insights into model of the soil-anchor interaction, an analytical solution was developed. The solution offered the interaction of the soil-anchor and provided the basis of the design of anchor system. The theoretical researches were proved by experimental researches and their results were good agreement with the results of experiments. This solution can be used to predict the interface parameters from the given interface parameters, and determine the interface parameters from the given anchor rod pullout test. Thus anchor rod pullout tests can be reduced and reliable anchor rod performance data can be obtained, making anchor rod design more convenient.
