Executive Summary | The Japanese design standard for harbour structures permits to calculate tension in tierods and the maximum bending moment of anchored sheet pile walls with the equivalent beam method, if they have their embedments in sand layers. It assumes that walls are equivalent to simple beams ended at the sea bottom, and that they are supported at sea bottom and connected points with anchors, which are applied under the same loads to walls. It, however, recommends that stresses of walls should be determined with the fixed earth support method, if their embedments are in clay. Because of its complicy, there is need to develope a simple one. |
