Dave. 1 computer file (PDF); vii, 102 pages, appendices A-C.This thesis presents results from a comprehensive laboratory evaluation of the fracture and ultimate strength and deformation capacities of multistrand PT anchorage systems for use in seismic resilient rocking wall structures. The testing program encompassed two anchorage manufacturers, two anchorage alignment configurations, and two wedge geometries under both monotonic and cyclic loading.en-USAnchorageModified wedgeMultistrandPost-tensioningPreWECRocking wallComprehensive evaluation of multistrand post-tensioning anchorage systems for seismic resilient rocking wall structuresThesis or Dissertation
