The Combined Bearing Capacities of Anchor Chain Segment by Considering Its Actual Geometry and Roughness

The soil resistances along the embedded ground chain affect the pull-out capacity of anchor as they determine the magnitude and direction of tension at the padeye. To facilitate analyses, the chain was usually simplified as a cylindrical line. The chain segment with actual geometry, buried deeply in...
