Comprehensive Model for Embedded Plates
Publication: Journal of Structural Engineering
Volume 126, Issue 5
Abstract
A model to predict the behavior of embedded plates is developed considering plate flexibility, effects of transverse shear in plate, base stiffness (for tensionless base), anchor parameters, and attachment size. The development of the model, including its validation for linear elastic behavior, is presented. Linear behavior revealed influence of plate flexibility, transverse shear effects in plate, anchor stiffness, base stiffness, and attachment size on important design parameters of embedded plates. Subsequent development of a comprehensive model that includes material nonlinearity for prediction of behavior, mode of failure, and capacity of embedded plates is also presented. The model is validated with the available results of experimental and analytical work. Adoption of the model will be of help in obtaining better insight for formulating design guidelines for embedded plates.
