Suction foundation, as a new type of marine anchoring foundation, has the advantages of reuse, fast construction, and large vertical bearing capacity. In this paper, through a self-developed bearing capacity test device, a series of load-bearing performance tests of the suction foundation are performed to reproduce the bearing characteristics of the suction foundation under the action of the pull-up load. It can be found that bearing capacity of suction foundation increases with the penetration, and the influence of the inclination angle on the bearing capacity of the suction foundation is in a middle value range.
