Abstract

To improve concrete-filled tube (CFT) columns, an octagonal concrete-filled tube (OCFT) column was developed. Because the OCFT column requires a small boring diameter, the OCFT column is suitable for Top-Down construction method. In this study, the compression performance of OCFT column to be used as Top-Down pile foundation was verified using centrifuge equipment. Under 12 g centrifugal acceleration, the bearing capacities of the pile foundations of OCFT and H-shaped sections were tested. When the pile foundations were embedded in soil of full depth, 45 % of the design strength, which was assumed to be the construction load, was supported by the OCFT and H-shaped sections in the elastic states. When the pile foundations were embedded in soil of half depth, the buckling of the pile foundations was not investigated. After the loading test, the rock at the bottom of pile foundation, which had a strength of 3.5 MPa, was not damaged due to 45 % of the design strength.

콘크리트 충전 강관 기둥을 개선한 팔각 콘크리트 충전 강관 기둥 (OCFT 기둥)이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 시공성 및 경제성 측면에서 장점을 갖는 OCFT 기둥을 역타(Top-Down) 공법에 적용하기 위하여 원심모형실험 장비를 활용하여 압축성능을 검증하였다. 12 g의 원심가속도가 작용하는 상태에서 말뚝으로 시공된 OCFT 기둥의 시공하중에 대한 지지가능 여부와 토사가 굴토되었을 경우 말뚝의 좌굴안전성 등을 관찰하기 위하여 압축강도에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 천공 후, OCFT 기둥과 H 형강이 말뚝기초로 시공되고 뒷채움으로, 지반에 완전히 묻힌 실험체의 경우와 반만 묻힌 경우에 대하여, 약 13,000 kN의 공칭강도의 45% 시공하중을 재하한 결과 모든 실험체가 탄성상태에서 거동하였다. 하중재하실험 종료 후, 풍화암과 말뚝하부를 관찰한 결과 풍화암이 손상되지 않았으며, 이로부터 3.5 MPa 조성된 풍화암은 $600{\times}600mm$ OCFT 기둥의 공칭강도의 45%도 안정적으로 지지할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.
