7.2.1 Site Properties 



The site properties are given as: 



Internal friction angle = 35 degrees 



Unit buoyant weight = 880 kg/m 3 (55 pcf) 



-3 -5 



Permeability = 1 x 10 cm/sec (3 x 10 ft/sec) 



7.2.2 Hazardous/Unusual Conditions 



Since none of the examples of paragraph 2.4 seem to apply, it is 

 assumed that there are no hazardous/unusual conditions. 



7.2.3 Penetration 



Penetration into cohesionless soils is covered by paragraph 3.2. 

 For the CEL propellant- embedded anchors, a tabulation of embedment 

 depths is given for a range of sand densities. From Table 3-2, D for 

 a medium dense sand is found to be about 7 meters (23 ft). 



7.2.4 Fluke Keying 



Using Equation 4-2 from paragraph 4.2 



D = D - 1.5 L (4-2) 



P 



= 7 - (1.5)(1.5) 



= 4.8 m (15.7 ft) 



7.2.5 Static Holding Capacity 



Short-term static holding capacity is calculated using Equation 5-2 

 from paragraph 5.1.2.
