Overview

The submission includes a public redacted copy of the Post Access Report report and any necessary underlying un-redacted data to support charts, figures, etc. from Sperra's TEAMER RFTS 9 Drop Testing of Ultra-Low-Cost Torpedo Anchors for Marine Renewable Energy project. This dataset provides technical information from the drop test campaign conducted at Sandia National Laboratories' 300-foot Drop Tower Facility from 9/16/24 - 9/20/24, where full-scale prototypes of Sperra's patented ultra-low-cost concrete torpedo anchors were evaluated for embedment performance in saturated sandy seabed conditions. The data supports the validation of concrete torpedo anchors as a cost-effective, low-carbon alternative to steel torpedo anchors for use with anchoring marine energy, with results informing future numerical modeling improvements and design refinements. This project is part of the TEAMER RFTS 9 (request for technical support) program.
