This study elucidates the uplift behaviors of the straight-sided and belled shafts. The field uplift load tests were carried out on 18 straight-sided and 15 belled shafts at the three collapsible loess sites under an arid environment on the Loess Plateau in Northwest China. Both the site conditions and the load tests were documented comprehensively. In general, the uplift load-displacement curves of the straight-sided and belled shafts approximately exhibited an initial linear, a curvilinear transition, and a final linear region, but did not provide a well defined peak or asymptotic value of the load, and therefore their uplift resistances should be interpreted from the load test results using an appropriate criterion. Nine representative uplift resistance interpretation criteria were used to define the "interpreted failure load" for each of the load tests, and all of these interpreted uplift resistances were normalized by the failure threshold, $T_{L2}$, obtained using the $L_1-L_2$ method. These load test data were compared statistically and graphically. For the straight-sided and belled shafts, the normalized uplift load-displacement curves were respectively established by the plots that related the mean interpreted uplift resistance ratio against the mean displacement at the corresponding interpreted criteria, and the comparisons of the normalized load-displacement curves were made. Specific recommendations for the designs of uplift belled and straight-sided shafts in the loess were given, in terms of both capacity and displacement.

Anchors have been commonly used to as foundation systems of the structures that require the uplift resistance. Recently anchors have been used in ocean sediment for mooring systems to stabilizeoffshore structures. In the saturated clayey soil however suction developed between the soil and andchor and affects the uplift capacity of anchor. To estimate the uplift capacity of the andchor accurately, the failure mechanisms of the andchor by the uplift force should also be correctly assumed. The uplift capacity is usually expressed in terms of breakout factors with respect to embedment ratio. In this paper, a two-dimensional plane strain numerical investigation into the vertical uplift capacity of a plate andchor in a clayey soil is described. The breakout factor against their corresponding values of embedment ratio was calculated and plotted along a single curve. The modes of failure mechanism at shallow and deep andchors are also presented.

The uplift capacity and displacement of an earth anchor for improving the wind resistance of the 1-2W type plastic film pipe on greenhouse was tested using the steel circular vertical earth anchor with various diameters and embedded depths (L) in dry sand. The diameter (B) of the model anchor is 90mm, 120mm, 150mm, respectively. The model tests were performed embedded depth ratios (L/B) ranging from $1{\sim}3$ in loose density. In the case of diameter 90mm, as the uplift loading increased, the uplift capacity also increased until the loading was reached to ultimate uplift capacity. After that, the uplift capacity was continually increased or decreased until the experiment was finished. In general, the ultimate uplift capacity was different depending upon the anchor diameter and embedded depth ratios.

In the past decade, different types of underreamed ground anchors have been developed for substructures requiring uplift resistance. This article introduces a new type of umbrella-shaped anchor. The uplift behavior of this ground anchor in clay is studied through a series of laboratory and field uplift tests. The test results show that the umbrella-shaped anchor has higher uplift capacity than conventional anchors. The failure mode of the umbrella-shaped anchor in a large embedment depth can be characterized by an arc failure surface and the dimension of the plastic zone depends on the anchor diameter. The anchor diameter and embedment depth have significant influence on the uplift behavior. A finite element model is established to simulate the pullout of the ground anchor. A parametric study using this model is conducted to study the effects of the elastic modulus, cohesion, and friction angle of soils on the load-displacement relationship of the ground anchor. It is found that the larger the elastic modulus and the shear strength parameters, the higher the uplift capacity of the ground anchor. It is suggested that in engineering design, the soil with stiffer modulus and higher shear strength should be selected as the bearing stratum of this type of anchor.

This paper presents the results of full-scale load tests performed frictional anchors to various lengths at several sites in Korea. Various rock types were tested, ranging from highly weathered shale to sound gneiss. In many tests, rock failure was reached and the ultimate loads were recorded along with observations of the shape and extent of the failure surface. Laboratory tests were also conducted to investigate the influence of the corrosion protection sheath on the bond strength. Based on test results, the main parameters governing the uplift capacity of the rock anchor system were determined. By evaluation of the ultimate uplift capacity of anchor foundations in a wide range of in situ rock masses, rock classification suitable for structural foundation was developed. Finally, a very simple and economical design procedure is proposed for rock anchor foundations subjected to uplift tensile loads.

본 연구에서는 1-2W형 플라스틱피복 파이프 온실의 내풍성을 증대시키기 위하여 형상 및 직경이 서로 다른 말뚝에 대하여 인발저항력을 검토하였다. 그 결과 민말뚝의 경우, 인발하중이 증가함에 따라 인발저항력은 증가하지만, 대부분의 경우 인발변위가 발생한 직후의 하중단계에서 극한인발저항력에 도달하였다. 그러나 주름말뚝의 경우는 인발변위가 발생한 이후에도 실험을 종료할 때까지 인발저항력의 증감이 반복되는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 기초의 형상, 직경 및 매입깊이에 따라 극한인발저항력은 다르지만, 본 실험의 경우 직경과 매입깊이에 관계없이 극한인발저항력은 주름말뚝이 민말뚝보다 약 2배 정도 크게 나타났다. 단위면적당 극한인발저항력은 매입깊이가 깊어질수록 증가하지만, 직경이 커지면 감소하였다. 실험 대상지역의 설계풍속(26.9m.s$^{-1}$)을 고려하면, 민말뚝은 매입깊이에 관계없이 기초의 인발저항력이 부족하였고, 주름말뚝의 경우은 대부분의 실험조건에서 충분한 것으로 나타났다.

앵커의 극한인발력을 결정하기 위해서는 인발에 의한 지반의 파괴기구를 정확하게 알아야 한다. 그러나 앵커의 인발저항에 영향을 끼치는 요소 중에서 묻힘비에 따른 파괴기구의 변화에 대한 기존의 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 판앵커의 수직인발시 묻힘비에 따른 파괴가구의 변화를 보다 명확히 관찰하고, 지존의 극한인발력 산정식의 적용성을 판단하기 위하여 탄소봉으로 조성된 평면변행률상태의 지반에서 모형실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과로서, 얕은앵커상태와 깊은앵커상태일 때의 지반의 파괴특성을 명확히 구분할 수 있었으며, 깊은앵커의 극한인발력의 산정에 앞서 얕은앵커의 해석이 선행되어야 한다는 것이 증명되었다.

One of the main parameters that affect the design of suction caisson-supported offshore structures is uplift behavior. Pull-out of suction caissons is profoundly utilized as the offshore wind turbine foundations accompany by a tensile resistance that is a function of a complex interaction between the caisson dimensions, geometry, wall roughness, soil type, load history, pull-out rate, and many other parameters. In this paper, a parametric study using a 3-D finite element model (FEM) of a single offshore suction caisson (SOSC) surrounded by saturated soil is performed to examine the effect of some key factors on the tensile resistance of the suction bucket foundation. Among the aforementioned parameters, caisson geometry and uplift loading as well as the difference between the tensile resistance and suction pressure on the behavior of the soil-foundation system including tensile capacity are investigated. For this purpose, a full model including 3-D suction caisson, soil, and soil-structure interaction (SSI) is developed in Abaqus based on the u-p formulation accounting for soil displacement (u) and pore pressure, P.The dynamic responses of foundations are compared and validated with the known results from the literature. The paper has focused on the effect of geometry change of 3-D SOSC to present the soil-structure interaction and the tensile capacity. Different 3-D caisson models such as triangular, pentagonal, hexagonal, and octagonal are employed. It is observed that regardless of the caisson geometry, by increasing the uplift loading rate, the tensile resistance increases. More specifically, it is found that the resistance to pull-out of the cylinder is higher than the other geometries and this geometry is the optimum one for designing caissons.

본 논문에서는 송전철탑 심형기초의 주면마찰력을 평가하고자 충북 음성지역의 편마암에 대해 총 6회(1/8규모 5회, 1/2규모 1회) 현장시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과 파괴형태는 기초체와 암반의 마찰파괴가 아닌 굴착으로 인한 손상된 주변암반 및 기존암반의 절리상태에 지배되는 것으로 나타났으며, 주면마찰력 평가결과 기존의 송전철탑 심형기초에 적용하고 있는 값보다 약 20$\sim$30% 증가되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 기초타설시 사용되는 라이너플레이트의 영향을 살펴보고자 기존 철탑 기초에 대해 시추조사를 4회 실시하였다. 라이너플레이트 배면콘크리트의 압축강도는 타설시 설계강도의 63$\sim$72%였으며, 주면마찰력의 설계기준치를 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.
