ABSTRACT

Anchor technology has been widely extended to many trades after 100 years of its development. This paper discusses the application of pre-stressed anchor reinforcement for anchorage of Xiaoping Island Sheng-island Bridge, carried out safety analysis of reinforced anchorage by software of general finite element analysis, Ansys. The analytical results showed that the use of pre-stressed anchor to reinforce anchorage was feasible and provided effective reference to subsequent actual project.

Keywords: pre-stressed anchor reinforcement; finite element analysis; anchorage
