Abstract

Jacked pile that involves the use of hydraulic jacks to press the piles into the ground is free from noise and vibration, and is possibly installed within a limited construction area. Thus, as an alternative to conventional pile driving methods, pile jacking could become widely accepted for the construction projects in urban area (e.g., reconstruction or remodeling construction projects). Great concern has arisen over the prediction of axially loaded jacked pile behavior. Against this background, a series of pile load tests were hence conducted on a jacked steel pipe pile installed in weathered zone (i.e., weathered soil and weathered rock). From the test results, base resistance and shaft resistance for each test condition were evaluated and compared with the values predicted by the previous driven pile resistance assessment method. Test results showed that the previous driven pile resistance assessment method highly underestimated both the base and shaft resistances of a jacked pile; differences were more obviously observed with the shaft resistance. The reason for this discrepancy is that a driven pile normally experiences a larger number of loading/unloading cycles during installation, and therefore shows significantly degraded stiffness of surrounding soil. Based on the results of the pile load tests, particular attention was given to the modification of the previous driven pile resistance assessment method for investigating the axially loaded jacked pile behavior.

유압잭을 통해 지반에 압입 시공되는 압입강관말뚝은 소음 및 진동을 적게 발생시켜 도심지 공사에 적합한 기초형식으로 알려져 있다. 특히 협소한 공간에서 시공이 용이하여 리모델링 혹은 수직증축 공사에 널리 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대되지만, 연직지지거동이 명확히 규명되지 않아 제한적으로만 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 압입강관말뚝의 연직지지거동을 평가하기 위하여 국내의 대표적인 지층인 풍화토 및 풍화암 지반에서 말뚝재하시험을 수행하였다. 재하시험 결과를 통해 각 시험조건 별 주면지지력 및 선단지지력을 평가하였고 이를 항타말뚝을 대상으로 제안된 지지력 평가식과 비교분석하였다. 그 결과, 항타말뚝을 대상으로 제안된 평가식을 통한 예측값은 압입강관말뚝의 주면지지력 및 선단지지력을 각각 57.2% 및 33.8% 과소평가 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 기존의 지지력 평가식이 단단한 풍화토 및 풍화암층의 강도를 적절히 고려하지 못하며, 항타공법에 비해 압입공법을 통한 말뚝 설치 시 말뚝주변 지반교란에 따른 지지력 감소가 더 작게 나타나기 때문으로 판단된다. 추가적으로, 기존의 지지력 평가식을 재하시험 결과를 바탕으로 개선하여 압입강관말뚝의 연직지지거동 평가 및 연직지지력 산정 시 활용 가능하도록 하였다.
