تعیین پارامترهای اندرکنشی خاک-مهاری جهت مدلسازی عددی بر اساس داده های میدانی

Anchors play a special role in geotechnical structures such as excavations. The anchor section in soil is generally divided into five zones including reinforcement element, grout, grout and surrounding soil mixture, shear zone and soil media. The main objective of the present research is to determine the soil-anchor interaction parameters for numerical modeling of anchored wall using FLAC2D software. Basically, the injection area determining is the main challenge in the anchor force nomination. According to the proposed method, the diameter of the injected area is determined based on the injection pressure, grout volume, porosity and shear zone thickness. It is shown that the diameter of the injected area is approximately increased by 40% relatively to the drilling diameter. The diameter of the injected area in rock media, however, is equal to the drilling diameter. The other parameters are determined using equalization of rock media formulas for soil media. In order to ensure the validity of the proposed method, the pull-out test is numerically simulated in FLAC2D software. The numerical results have been then verified with anchor tension results in an excavation project. The results indicate that ultimate load of anchor calculated from the numerical model is comparable with equations proposed by many researches. Also, there is a negligible difference between the displacement obtained in numerical simulation and pull-out test results. This method is therefore can be used in numerical modeling of anchored wall in soil media with high precision. Anchors play a special role in geotechnical structures such as excavations.
