Design of Ground Anchors For Clays

This document summarizes the design of two ground anchors for a retaining wall excavation in stiff clay soil. Key details include an excavation depth of 11.3m, 80kN/m surcharge load, 15 degree anchor inclination, and 45 degree failure plane angle. Anchor loads were calculated as 784kN and 747kN, requiring 7 and 7 steel strands respectively, each with a diameter of 15mm and ultimate strength of 1861MPa.
