.... This parameter is usually determined experimentally with a vertical load applied to the end of a cantilever beam (Frederking et al, 1985), (ITTC, 2014). Apart from determining internal parameters, it is possible to evaluate the applicability of the data and criteria obtained from the cantilever beam experiment...

... Abstract Hybrid foundations, mudmats with corner pin-piles, were proposed recently to effectively resist the large lateral and vertical loads from the jumper and flowline walking loads. Previous hybrid foundation designs did not fully utilize the pin-pile axial capacity. Through a design case...

The loading arm is equipped with a set of three pairs of strain gauges in order to monitor the vertical load V and bending moment M applied on the foundation during testing. The horizontal load H is directly inferred from the bending measurements...
