Conclusions
1. The use of anchoring devices to prevent uplift of structures under the indicated soil conditions makes it possible to involve the surrounding soil mass in work and thereby to reduce the weight of the structure, consumption of materials, and cost of construction.
2. When choosing the scheme of calculating anchoring devices it is necessary to take into account the possibility of the realization of one of the two aforementioned schemes of transition of the supporting soil to a limit state, which will make it possible to obtain more accurate values of the bearing capacity of such devices.
