Experimental study and numerical analysis on bearing behaviors of super-long rock-socketed bored pile groups

A centrifuge modeling test and a three-dimensional finite element analysis（FEA）of super-long rock-socketed bored pile groups of the Tianxingzhou Bridge are proposed.Based on the similarity theory,different prototypical materials are simulated using different indicators in the centrifuge model.The silver sand,the shaft and the pile cap are simulated according to the natural density,the compressive stiffness and the bending stiffness,respectively.The finite element method（FEM）is implemented and analyzed in ANSYS,in which the stress field during the undisturbed soil stage,the boring stage,the concrete-casting stage and the curing stage are discussed in detail.Comparisons in terms of load-settlement,shaft axial force distribution and lateral friction between the numerical results and the test data are carried out to investigate the bearing behaviors of super-long rock-socketed bored pile groups under loading and unloading conditions.Results show that there is a good agreement between the centrifuge modeling tests and the FEM.In addition,the load distribution at the pile top is complicated,which is related to the stiffness of the cap,the corresponding assumptions and the analysis method.The shaft axial force first increases slightly with depth then decreases sharply,and the rate of decrease in rock is greater than that in sand and soil.

A case study on behaviors of composite soil nailed wall with bored piles in a deep excavation

A complete case of a deep excavation was explored. According to the practical working conditions, a 3D non-linear finite element procedure is used to simulate a deep excavation supported by the composite soil nailed wall with bored piles in soft soil. The modified cam clay model is employed as the constitutive relationship of the soil in the numerical simulation. Results from the numerical analysis are fitted well with the field data, which indicate that the research approach used is reliable. Based on the field data and numerical results of the deep excavation supported by four different patterns of the composite soil nailed wall, the significant corner effect is founded in the 3D deep excavation. If bored piles or soil anchors are considered in the composite soil nailed wall, they are beneficial to decreasing deformations and internal forces of bored piles, cement mixing piles, soil anchors, soil nailings and soil around the deep excavation. Besides, the effects due to bored piles are more significant than those deduced from soil anchors. All mentioned above prove that the composite soil nailed wall with bored piles is feasible in the deep excavation.

Dynamic estimation and reliability control of quality assurance for bored piles

A systematic method was proposed to estimate the occurrence probability of defective piles(OPDP) from a site according to quality assurance inspection. The OPDP was firstly suggested as the criterion to weight the performance of a pile foundation. Its prior distribution and updating distribution were deduced to follow Beta distributions. To calibrate the OPDP, a dynamic estimation model was established according to the relationships between prior mean and variance and updating mean and variance. Finally, a reliability-control method dealing with uncertainties arising from quality assurance inspection was formalized to judge whether all the bored piles from a site can be accepted. It is exemplified that the OPDP can be substantially improved when more definite prior information and sampling formation become available. For the example studied herein, the Bayesian estimator of updating variance for OPDP is reduced from 0.0037 to 0.0014 for the first inspection, from 0.0014 to 0.0009 for the second inspection, and with less uncertainty by incorporating experience information.

Comparative Examinations of Single Bored Piles Using International Codes

This paper presents some aspects of the load-settlement behavior for large diameter bored piles using four different international codes, namely: ECP 202 [1], DIN 4014 [2], AASHTO [3] and French Code [4]. Ultimate capacities for 38 pile load tests founded in realistic multi-layered soils in Delta and Port Saidareas atEgyptare evaluated using modified Chin (1970) method and compared to ultimate load predictions obtained by the aforementioned codes. Many statistical analyses were conducted on the total pile loads and individual contributions of tip and skin resistances. Based on code predictions of ultimate pile loads, an empirical modified load-settlement model is proposed. This model will simplify to a great extent the analysis of piled-raft systems as it can effortlessly predict pile settlement due to the load on pile itself. Comparisons showed that the pile load test is an irreplaceable process for determining the ultimate capacity of piles.

黏性土中桩侧后注浆单桩抗压承载性能室内模型试验研究

后注浆技术的应用能有效减少桩周土体扰动和泥皮等造成的不利影响,从而提高钻孔灌注桩的承载力。目前有关后注浆技术的研究多集中于桩端后注浆,少有涉及桩侧后注浆,影响了桩侧后注浆技术进一步推广应用。根据桩侧后注浆工艺,开展单桩抗压室内试验,以研究桩侧后注浆量对单桩抗压承载性能的影响。结果表明:在荷载水平较大的工况下,相较于桩侧后注浆量为1 L的单桩,注浆量为2、3 L时单桩极限抗压承载力分别提高18.2%和66.0%,提高幅度与注浆量呈正相关,并且可以在很大程度上减小桩顶沉降量;桩侧后注浆桩桩身轴力在侧注浆点位附近减小较快,在整个加载过程中桩端附近处桩身轴力值均比较低,单桩受压表现为摩擦桩;水泥浆液同时存在上返和下劈扩散,在室内试验条件下,两者扩散高度均约为14倍桩径,在浆液扩散段桩侧摩阻力得到显著提高,且越靠近注浆点位提高程度越明显。

软土地区轨道交通桥梁下方灌注桩小净距施工影响

[目的]我国沿海软土地区灌注桩与运营轨道交通桥梁、桥墩间小净距的施工影响正成为制约城市轨道交通规划与建设的又一瓶颈因素,因此有必要研究小净距钻孔灌注桩施工对周围地层和桥墩的变形影响。[方法]以浙江某城市道路桩板结构形式下穿轨道交通桥梁在建工程为例,通过设计土体侧向变形监测试验和搭建既有桥梁、桥墩的位移智能监测系统,分析了深厚软土区地层与测斜孔的协同变形特性,以及钻孔灌注桩施工对周围地层及桥墩变形的影响规律。[结果及结论]为使测斜孔与地层具有较好的协同变形,软土区测斜孔施工后应稳定停留6 d;淤泥层对施工加载、卸载过程的敏感性较高,由施工引发的软土地层变形量最大;在施工条件下,桥墩3个方向的变形幅值约为未施工的2~3倍;成孔开挖和混凝土浇筑工序对桥墩深度方向的扰动影响较显著,因此已运营轨道交通桥梁下部施工的监测重点应为竖向位移。

静钻根植桩施工环境效应现场试验研究

静钻根植桩采用先钻孔注浆后植桩的施工技术,可以解决传统预制桩施工过程引起的挤土效应问题。然而,静钻根植桩施工过程中钻孔和注浆过程会对周围土体产生一定扰动,目前没有相关研究。文章通过一组现场试验对静钻根植桩施工过程中的钻孔、注浆搅拌和植桩阶段对周围土体的扰动规律进行研究。静钻根植桩施工前在钻孔周围土体中埋设土压力传感器,孔隙水压力传感器和测斜管,分别测试静钻根植桩施工过程中周围土体中水平土压力,超静孔隙水压力和深层土体水平位移的变化规律。研究结果表明:静钻根植桩施工过程会对周围土体造成一定扰动,而施工完成后周围土体中的水平土压力、超静孔隙水压力和深层土体水平位移迅速恢复;当水平距离达到4D(D为钻孔直径)时,静钻根植桩施工过程基本不会对土体产生影响;试验结果可以为静钻根植桩在地铁周围等施工位移控制敏感区域的应用提供理论依据。

印尼软土地区后注浆钻孔灌注桩现场试验研究

后注浆钻孔灌注桩在软土地区工程中应用广泛,但对后注浆灌注桩承载特性的理论研究仍滞后于工程实践。依托印尼软土地区某工程,开展不同桩长普通钻孔灌注桩和后注浆钻孔灌注桩的现场试验。结果表明,后注浆钻孔灌注桩极限承载力是同条件下普通钻孔灌注桩的1.20~1.26倍,后注浆灌注桩的回弹率和弹性变形相应增加;研究区地质条件下后注浆水泥浆液上返高度约为12.4~13.8 m,桩端以下水泥浆下渗深度约为1.3~2.1 m(约为桩径的1.6~2.6倍);后注浆灌注桩水泥浆上返高度以下桩侧和桩端以下岩土层的标贯击数较压浆前均显著提高,后注浆导致的桩侧摩阻力和桩端阻力的提高是钻孔灌注桩承载性能提高的主要因素。研究成果对指导印尼软土地区后注浆设计和施工具有一定的借鉴意义。
