A Study on the Behavior of Group Pile in Sandy Soil by Model Test

모형실험에 의한 사질토 자반에서의 군말뚝 거동에 관한 연구

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the bearing capacity, settlement and pile action of pile groups in cohesionless soil, based on a wide range of model test in laboratory. Model test were conducted with changing the variables affecting the behavior of group pile; Number of pile, Diameters, Spacings between piles and Arrangement of piles. Effects of these variables on group efficiency were investigated by analyzing test results. Test results were also compared with the existing analytical method and data obtained in-situ tests.
