Anchor Verification

The "Anchor Verification" frame contains a table with a list of anchors entered in the "Anchors" frame.

By clicking on the "Edit" button (or by double-clicking on the anchor in the table), the "Anchor Verification Parameters" dialog window is opened for the selected anchor.

In this window, the "Anchor type" is selected:

The "Anchor type" is selected in this window:

• do not verify
• prestressed bars
• strand

The prestressed bar and strand anchors can be checked for three different types of failure:

• Strength of anchor R_t
• Pull-out resistance (soil) R_e
• Pull-out resistance (grouting) R_c

Computed bearing capacities of anchors are reduced by the corresponding safety factor or reduction coefficient, which are defined in the frame "Settings", tab "Anchors". The verification of the anchor is satisfactory when the maximum force in the anchor F is lower than all computed bearing capacities. The maximum force in the anchor F is equal to the prestressing force of the anchor in the current stage.
