Popis: In this paper, a soil-spring model was applied to evaluate the holding capacity according to the loading position of the suction anchor. The API(2010) method, which is mainly applied to small-diameter piles, the PISA(2015) method, which recently introduced research results in offshore wind power design, and the Jeanjean(2009) method, which was presented as a model suitable for large-diameter piles in cohesive soil, were analyzed. A comparative review of the finite element analysis(ALE) was applied was performed for the conditions. A procedure for calculating the holding capacities for each loading position of the suction anchor was established using the soil-spring model, and it was confirmed that it was a method that could be used practically. When the soil-spring model of Jeanjean(2009) was applied, the results (5~10%) most similar to the FEM(ALE) analysis results in tendency and holding capacity could be obtained.
