To study the mechanism of bearing capacity of a suction bucket, a series of centrifugal tests were designed to investigate the uplift bearing capacity, and the entire dynamic process of pore water pressure were monitored as well. The results show that with the increase of inclined degree of suction foundation, the bearing capacity of suction foundation decreases continuously, and the influence of inclination on the foundation bearing capacity is obvious.
