Effect of a filter cake on shear behavior of sand-concrete pile interface

考虑桩间泥皮对砂土-混凝土桩接触面剪切特性影响的试验研究

A filter cake is often formed between soil and concrete during casting concrete in the ground,such as constructions of diaphragm walls and bored piles.The present study aims to investigate the effect of the filter cake on the shear behavior of the sand-concrete pile interface.A series of sand-concrete interface direct shear tests were performed with a large-direct shear apparatus while considering different roughness(I=0,10,20 and 30 mm)and filter cake thickness(Δh=0,5 and 10 mm).For a smooth interface without a filter cake,the shear stress-horizontal displacement curves showed a“softening”response.The peak shear strength and friction angle decreased exponentially with increasing theΔh.Whereas,for a rough interface withΔh=5 or 10 mm,the shear stress-horizontal displacement curves presented a“hardening”response.The peak strength,as well as friction angle,decreased linearly with increasing theΔh.Moreover,a critical roughness I_(cr)of 10 mm was observed in the tests without a filter cake.The interface shear strength initially increased with increasing I but gradually decreased when the I exceeded I_(cr).In addition,the filter cake could reduce the roughness sensitivity on shear strength.

在对地下连续墙、钻孔灌注桩等地下结构进行施工时,需要浇筑混凝土,在土体与混凝土间随之会产生泥皮层。本研究旨在探究泥皮厚度对砂土-混凝土桩界面剪切特性的影响规律。基于桩侧不同粗糙度(I=0,10,20和30 mm)和泥皮厚度(Δh=0,5和10 mm),开展一系列的砂土-混凝土接触面大型界面直剪试验。试验结论表明:对于无泥皮的光滑界面,剪切应力-切向位移曲线呈现软化型;随着泥皮厚度的增加,该曲线由软化型转为双折线型。峰值强度和摩擦角随泥皮厚度的增加呈指数下降。当泥皮厚度由0增加至10 mm的粗糙界面,剪切应力-切向位移曲线则由软化型转变为硬化型,峰值强度和摩擦角随泥皮厚度的增加呈线性下降。发现当存在临界粗糙度Icr=10 mm,接触面粗糙度小于临界粗糙度时,剪切强度随粗糙度的增加而增大;当接触面粗糙度超过临界粗糙度时,剪切强度逐渐降低。此外,泥皮存在会降低粗糙度对接触面强度影响的敏感性。
