Book Experimental Investigation of the Combined Load Response of Model Piles Driven in Sand

Download or read book Experimental Investigation of the Combined Load Response of Model Piles Driven in Sand written by Jintae Lee and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the load applied on a pile is usually a combination of a vertical and a lateral load, there have been few studies done on the response of piles subjected to combined loading; these studies; in addition, produce results that are inconsistent with respect to the effects of axial loads on the lateral load response of piles. In this paper, we present the results of model pile load tests performed to assess the influence of axial loads on the lateral response of piles driven in sand. Using a drop hammer, an instrumented circular model pile was driven into large-scale sand samples prepared in a cylindrical steel tank with various densities using a pluviation method. Lateral load tests were performed on the model pile subjected to different axial loads. The combined load test results showed that the presence of an axial load on a driven pile is detrimental to its lateral capacity, for the lateral deflection of the model pile head increased with increasing axial load. The bending moments at the pile head increased substantially (by 10 %, 36 % and 39 % for loose, medium dense and dense sand, respectively) in the presence of axial loads.

Book Experimental Investigation on Soil Deformation Caused by Pile Buckling in Transparent Media

Download or read book Experimental Investigation on Soil Deformation Caused by Pile Buckling in Transparent Media written by Chang-Guang Qi and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transparent media and particle image velocimetry (PIV) approaches were employed to measure the buckling deformation of fully embedded model piles and the consequent soil deformation under different constraints in a nonintrusive manner. Transparent media (also called transparent soils) are made of fused quartz and a pore solution, the refractive index of which is matched with that of fused quartz. A laser light sheet was employed to irradiate the transport soil and capture digital images of the buckling deformation of the model piles, and PIV was used to obtain the deformation of pile foundation and soil mass. The results show that the effect of the constraint mode at the pile tip on the buckling curve depends on the change in pile strength and slenderness ratio, the movement of soil on both sides of the maximum buckling point fits Rankine's earth pressure theory, and compared with single-pile buckling, the buckling deformation curve of multiple piles shows an elevated maximum deflection point.

Book ICPMG2014   Physical Modelling in Geotechnics

Download or read book ICPMG2014 Physical Modelling in Geotechnics written by Christophe Gaudin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 1366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 8th International Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics (ICPMG2014) was organised by the Centre for Offshore Foundation Systems at the University of Western Australia under the auspices of the Technical Committee 104 for Physical Modelling in Geotechnics of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. This quadrennial conference is the traditional focal point for the physical modelling community of academics, scientists and engineers to present and exchange the latest developments on a wide range of physical modelling aspects associated with geotechnical engineering. These proceedings, together with the seven previous proceedings dating from 1988, present an inestimable collection of the technical and scientific developments and breakthroughs established over the last 25 years. These proceedings include 10 keynote lectures from scientific leaders within the physical modelling community and 160 peer-reviewed papers from 26 countries. They are organised in 14 themes, presenting the latest developments in physical modelling technology, modelling techniques and sensors, through a wide range of soil-structure interaction problems, including shallow and deep foundations, offshore geotechnics, dams and embankments, excavations and retaining structures and slope stability. Fundamental aspects of earthquake engineering, geohazards, ground reinforcements and improvements, and soil properties and behaviour are also covered, demonstrating the increasing complexity of modelling arising from state-of-the-art technological developments and increased understanding of similitude principles. A special theme on education presents the latest developments in the use of physical modelling techniques for instructing undergraduate and postgraduate students in geotechnical engineering.

Book Analysis of Pile soil Interactions in Expansive Soils

Download or read book Analysis of Pile soil Interactions in Expansive Soils written by Khac Tuan Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study provides a simplified model to estimate the pile-soil interaction in expansive soil under axial loading with high accuracy compared with other complicated models. -- Three methods can be used to predict the pile-soil interaction under the axial loading. Group 1 is the Simplified Analytical Method. This method is easy to apply. However, the results in terms of the vertical pile movement and the axial load are usually overestimated, and it is impossible to estimate the vertical soil movement. Group 2 is the Boundary Element Method, and Group 3 is the Finite Element Method. Those two methods offer accurate results but the theory behind them is intricate. -- The present model uses a combination of theories in Group 1 and Group 2 so that it is easier to apply to interpret the following issues: -- • The relationship between load and settlement (t-z curve). -- • Vertical movements of pile and soil. -- • Settlement of the pile head. -- • Axial loads. -- There is a good agreement between the present model with RS Pile results and other models. The model has the same interpretations for the pile-soil interaction under the axial loading: -- • In the case of under only soil's swelling pressure (no applied load), the pile and the surrounding soil move upwards due to the soil heave. -- • As the applied load increases, the vertical pile movements, axial loads, settlement of the pile head, and vertical soil movements also increase. -- • The pile-soil interaction is dependent on the distance between the pile axis to the calculated position. The larger distance, the smaller the downward movement of the pile and the surrounding soil. Those movements are inversely proportional to depth.
