Das, Braja M.

SUMMARY

Anchors are primarily used in construction of foundations of earth-supported and earth-retaining structures. The anchors are used in construction to transmit the outwardly directed load to soil at a greater depth and/or farther from the structure. Although earth anchors have been used in practice for several hundred years, proper theoretical developments for purposes of modern engineering design have taken place only during the past few decades. This book summarizes most of the theoretical and experimental works regarding the ultimate and allowable holding capacity of earth anchors. Book jacket.Das, Braja M. is the author of 'Earth Anchors (Developments in Geotechnical Engineering)' with ISBN 9780444882813 and ISBN 0444882812.
