The existing mechanical and grouting anchors mostly use the expansion shell method to form a cavity on the borehole wall, and the cement slurry is poured to form multiple enlarged head plates, but the operation is more difficult and the diameter of the formed plate is smaller. In this paper, a new type of large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor and its reaming cavity forming tool are proposed, which can make the operation easier and form a large-diameter enlarged head plate. In order to study the influence of the diameter of anchor plate, the number of anchor plates and the spacing of anchor plates on the vertical uplift capacity of the large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor, 25 sets of comparative models were established for simulation analysis. The finite difference method of FLAC(3D) software is used to simulate the model. It is found that when the length of the anchor is 6 m and the diameter of the anchor rod body is 150 mm, the optimal diameter of the anchor plate of the large diameter multi-plate soil anchor is 590 mm, the optimal number of anchor plates is 6, and the optimal anchor plate spacing is 800 mm, which means the action range of the anchor plate on the lower soil is about 5 times the diameter of the bolt. When the number of anchor plates is too small or the spacing between anchor plates is too large, the structural advantages of large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor cannot be fully utilized, resulting in a decrease in the ultimate uplift capacity. When the number of anchor plates is too large or the spacing between anchor plates is too small, the stress superposition effect occurs in the soil, and the through shear failure occurs, which leads to the decline of the ultimate uplift capacity. Under the condition that the number of anchor plates and the spacing of anchor plates are fixed, the larger the diameter of the anchor plate is, the larger the ultimate pull-out capacity of the large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor is, the smaller the vertical failure displacement of the anchor head is, but the increase of the uplift capacity is gradually reduced. The creep rate of the new large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor bolt is 0.91 mm, and the creep rate of equal-diameter soil anchor bolt is 1.69 mm. It is verified that the new large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor can be effectively applied to various projects.

This paper presents a new type of large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor and its cavity-forming tool. The large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor is obtained by adopting a toothed chain, centrifuging holes to form cavities, forming multiple cavities, placing a steel strand with centering support, injecting cement mortar, and curing. In order to study the uplift bearing characteristics and creep property of the large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor, the equal-diameter soil anchor was taken as the control group. The ultimate pull-out bearing capacity, vertical displacement, axial force, anchor plate bearing load, and side friction resistance were simulated and analyzed by FLAC3D 5.0 64-bit software, and the creep property test of the anchor bolt was carried out. The results show that under the same conditions, the ultimate pulling capacity of the large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor is 125% higher than that of the same-diameter soil anchor. The vertical displacement of the large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor decreases by 51.74% compared with that of the equal-diameter soil anchor when the ultimate uplift capacity is reached. The side friction resistance of the large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor is small and its growth rate is slow. When the ultimate pulling capacity is reached, the load sharing of the anchor disc accounts for 76.54% of the total load applied. The creep rate of the large-diameter multi-plate soil anchor bolt is 0.91 mm, and the creep rate of the equal-diameter soil anchor bolt is 1.69 mm. By fitting the data, it is found that the large-diameter multi-disc soil anchor provides a method to increase the anchorage force of the soil anchor, and the research on its bearing characteristics and creep property provides a theoretical basis for the application of the soil anchor.
