Title: Model anchor tests in cohesionless soil

Conference · · Offshore Technol. Conf.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5412095

Tandem (piggyback), parallel, and single model anchor tests have been performed in cohesionless soil. Tandem anchor arrangements have been found that result in a tandem system capacity that exceeds twice the capacity of a single anchor. These methods are operationally feasible and offer the potential for anchor weight savings.
