The Bending and the Bearing Capacity of Bonding Method of Steel Piles into Pile Caps

강관말뚝 두부보강 방법의 휨내력 및 압축내력 특성

Engineers should be careful in the design of bonding piles into pile caps because they are weak points in the pile foundation. Therefore in this study, the mechanism of bonding piles into pile caps was explained, and the design method of the composite bonding method was proposed. And the proposed design method was verified in comparison with the result of the full scale test. Also, the characteristic for the bearing capacity and the mechanism of compressive load of bonding method were analyzed.
