Abstract
A new UHPC pre-stress transfer device is proposed for pre-stressed anti-floating anchor rods. To investigate the axial compression performance of the device during pre-stressing, physical experiments and a finite element verification were conducted on four different types of full-scale device specimens. The changes in the axial displacements and ultimate bearing capacities under axial pressure for the different types of devices were analyzed. The results indicated that bending failures occurred in the upper plate portions of all the types of specimens, with transverse cracks appearing near the upper plate portions of the short columns. The axial compression ultimate bearing capacity of each specimen exceeded the design value. Among them, the axial compression ultimate bearing capacity of the HM18 device increased the most relative to its design value by 87%, while axial compression ultimate bearing capacity of the HM45 device increased the least relative to its design value by only 2%. The new UHPC transfer device exhibits good applicability in pre-stressed anti-floating anchor rods.
