Selecting the correct drag embedment anchor requires detailed knowledge of the seabed soil conditions and a precise understanding of the maximum environmental loads the anchor will experience. The key soil parameters that influence anchor selection include the soil type (clay, sand, silt), undrained shear strength (for clay), effective stress parameters (for sand), and the soil's layering and variability. Geotechnical investigations, including Cone Penetration Tests (CPT) and soil borings, are essential for obt....
