This study aims to investigate the effect of consolidation shear stress magnitude on the shear behaviour and non-coaxiality of soils. In previous drained bi-directional simple shear test on Leighton Buzzard sand, it is showed that the level of non-coaxiality, which is indicated by the angle difference between the principal axes of stresses and the corresponding principal axes of strain rate tensors, is increased by increasing angle difference between the direction of consolidation shear stress and secondary shearing. This paper further investigated the relation and includes results with higher consolidation shear stresses. Results agree with the previous relation, and further showed that increasing consolidation shear stresses decreased the level of non-coaxiality in tests with angle difference between 0° and 90°, and increased the level of non-coaxiality in tests with angle difference between 90° and 180°.

Offshore foundations are typically designed to resist mooring loads coming from a single direction. This paper provides some insights into the geotechnical challenges associated with anchor sharing (i.e. where mooring loads are coming from multiple directions to one anchor) for Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) applications. Firstly, the multidirectional mooring load conditions on shared anchors are characterised for cases with one, two and three mooring lines connections. Secondly, multi-directional loadings applied on a caisson foundation in a geotechnical centrifuge facility showed large capacity reduction and large displacement of the foundation at large loading angle. Thirdly, multi-directional simple shear tests have showed that volumetric contraction increases as the degree of shear stress reversal increases. Lastly, the results from the soil element tests are brought into discussion with the physical modelling results to identify the foundation’s response to multi-directional loading.
