Draft Structural Verification of The Anchorage Zone of 1.0m Height
Draft Structural Verification of The Anchorage Zone of 1.0m Height
Draft Structural Verification of The Anchorage Zone of 1.0m Height
Verification of the load capacity for anchorage zone has been done using the strut and tie method.
Strut and tie model according to the below figure has been assumed:
Verification of ultimate limit state:
• Tie
N td 327.56 kN .1000
AB ⇒ As1 = = = 779.90mm2
f sd 4 20 N /mm2
• Struts
The struts resistance has been checked by computing the strut widths and checked whether they
fit in the space available. The width of the struts is given with the following equation:
N cd
bi =
k ci . f cd . t
fcd = 35MPa
1164.01∗1000
b=
0.6∗35∗500 = 112 mm
1175∗1000
b= = 84 mm
0.8∗35∗500
As shown in the figure below all strut widths fit into outline of the cross section, thus this solution is
acceptable.
