Abstract

In this study, uplift capacity of helical anchor plate embedded in layered soil (clay-sand) was investigated by conducting small scale model tests in laboratory. Model anchor plate with 50mm diameters of helix were used in the tests. The parameter investigated for the uplift capacity is density of sand. It was observed that uplift capacity of anchor plate increased with increasing density of sand. In addition, the tests were modelled by using the finite element program called PLAXIS 2D. The experimental results were compared with the numerical results and finally, some necessary suggestions for continuation of this work were put forward.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, tabakalı zeminlere (kil-kum) inşa edilen helisel ankraj plakalarının çekme kapasitesi laboratuvar ortamında model deneyler yapılarak araştırılmıştır. Deneylerde 50mm çapında helisel model ankraj plakası kullanılmıştır. Model deneylerde tabakalı zeminlerde kum tabakası sıkılığının ankraj plakasının çekme kapasitesi üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Kum sıkılığının artması ile ankraj plakasının çekme kapasitesinin arttığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca, model deney düzeneği, sonlu elemanlar yöntemi kullanan PLAXIS 2D bilgisayar programı ile modellenip analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen deney sonuçları sayısal sonuçlarla karşılaştırılmış ve gerekli öneriler yapılmıştır.
