Abstract
This chapter considers a review of previous theoretical and experimental work and the analysis of an anchor plate embedded in sand experience pullout loading. Numerical analysis and laboratory works were performed to research the performance of ultimate pullout loading anchor plates. Different anchor plates and soil parameters were employed by different researchers. Inevitably, such a wide range of parameters will contribute to conflicting conclusions for ultimate pullout loading of anchor plates. Unfortunately, results obtained from laboratory testing are typically problem specific and are difficult to extend to field problems with different material or geometric parameters in field scale. Numerical methods in estimating the ultimate pullout capacity of plate anchors have been developed; one of the earliest publications concerning ultimate pullout capacity of anchor plates was done by Mors (1959). Only a few investigations into the performance of ultimate pullout loading in sand have been recorded in model numerical studies.
