시멘트밀크(저압이나 고압에 의한 선단확근말뚝공법)나 쏘일시멘트(SIP말뚝공법) 위에 안치된 말뚝기초의 선단지지력과 확대기초를 지지하는 시멘트밀크 고결체 기둥 기초의 연직지지력 공식을 알아보기 위하여 총 14개의 시험체에 대하여 정재하시험 및 하중전이시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과에 의하면, 고결체 주변지반의 구속효과가 없는 8개의 시험체는 말뚝선단보강형태와는 무관하게 말뚝선단 아래의 시멘트밀크 고결체의 강도와 면적이 클수록 크게 나타났으며, 평균구속계수는 자유표면의 영향으로 1 보다 적은 0.43(D+1)이었다. 그리고 고결체 주변지반의 구속효과를 받는 6가지 지반조건에서 설치된 말뚝의 구속계수는 말뚝선단 아래 시멘트밀크 고결체를 주변지반의 구속효과로 1 보다 큰 평균 2.1의 값을 나타내었다. 그리고 지반의 구속효과를 고려한 말뚝기초와 직접기초 아래에 설치된 시멘트밀크 고결체의 이론적인 (선단)지지력 공식을 제안하였다.

New PHC piles, where short steel pipes are attached to the pile toe, are developed to increase the base load capacity of bored pre-cast piles embedded in weathered rock. In this study, new bored pre-cast piles using the new PHC piles are installed at 7 test sites with different soil conditions, and static and dynamic pile load tests are performed to investigate quantitative characteristics on the base load capacity of new bored pre-cast piles. In addition, based on the static pile load test results, a new empirical equation for estimating the base load capacity of new bored pre-cast piles is proposed. A comparison between predicted and measured base load capacities shows that the proposed empirical equation produces conservative predictions for the new bored pre-cast piles. However, the existing design criterion significantly underestimates the base load capacity of new bored pre-cast piles.

Conventionally, because evaluation methods of the bearing capacity for double steel pipe-concrete composite pile design have not been established, the conventional vertical bearing capacity equations for steel hollow pile are used. However, there are severe differences between the predictions from these equations, and the most conservative one among vertical bearing capacity predictions are conventionally adopted as a design value. Consequently, the current prediction method for vertical bearing capacity of composite pile prediction composite pile causes design reliability and economical feasibility to be low. This paper investigated mechanical behaviors of a new composite pile, with a cross-section composed of double steel pipes filled with concrete (DSCT), vertical bearing capacities were analyzed for several DSCT pile conditions. Axisymmetric finite element models for DSCT pile and surrounding ground were created and they were used to analyze effects on behaviors of DSCT pile pile by embedding depth, stiffness of plugging material at pile tip, height of plugging material at pile tip, and rockbed material. Additionally, results from conventional design prediction equations for vertical bearing capacity at steel hollow pile tip were compared with that from numerical results, and the use of the conventional equations for steel hollow pile was examined to apply to that for DSCT pile.

In this study, evaluation of load capacity and CPT-load capacity parameters were performed using calibration chamber tests for different types of piles including straight-side and tapered piles. Various soil conditions were considered in the investigation, aiming at establishing design procedure for foundation of electronic transmission tower structures. Test results show that no significant difference of total load capacity from straight-side and tapered piles, while individual components of base and shaft load capacities were quite different. Based on the test results, values of CPT-load capacity correlation parameters for different pile types were analyzed for the evaluation of both base and shaft load capacities.

In this paper, numerical analyses were conducted on piled raft foundation settlement and pile bearing characteristics in soft ground. Results obviously showed longer and larger piles developed end bearing capacity values, but also showed the load of the central pile is larger than the surrounding piles in a group formation. Additionally, after pile yielding, the load carrying capacity exists as a raft. Moreover, results showed no transverse displacement according to embedment depth for the single pile case, but larger transverse displacements for deeper embedment depths.

To analyse the end bearing capacity of a single pile in cohesionless soils, the mode of deformation due to a pile penetration has been intestigated through model pile penetration tests using acetone hardening and resin impregnation technique. A new mode of deformation has been assumed from the experimental results and a new solution compeying with the theory of spherical cal.its expansion has been proposed. The end bearing capacity according to the proposed solution is expressed as the product of the limit spherical cavity expansion pressure multiplied by a col.relation factor. The results has been compared with other solutions based on the theory of cavity expansion. From the comparison, the proposed solution is expected to provide a way to solve the problem of pile bearing capacity prediction based on the theory of cavity expansion which often has been criticized as giving higher value of pile bearing capacity than the actual value.

Model tests in calibration chamber with open -ended steel pipe pile have been performed in sand deposit to clarify effect of soil plug on bearing capacity, load transfer mechanisms in soil plug, and behavior of soil plug under dynamic and static conditions. Model piles were devised so that bearing capacity of open -ended pile could be measured separately into outside skin friction, inside skin friction due to soil plug -pile interaction and end bearing force on the section of steel pipe pile. It may be concluded, form the test results, that the plugging level of open -ended pile is more correctily defined by specific recovery ratio, y, rather than by plug length ratio, PLR, and the major part of inside skin friction is generated within the range of three times as long as the inner diameter of the pile from the pile tip. The ratio of inside skin friction to total bearing capacity is much larger than that of outside skin friction to total bearing capacity. Therefore, the bearing capacity of pile could not be well predicted, unless the inside skin friction is properly taken into account.

In order to investigate the influence of slanting angle of reticulated root piles(RRP) on their bearing capacities, model tests of compressive and uplift loads on RRP with different slanting angles, which were installed in sandy soils with a relative density of 47%, were carried out. Each pile which is made of a steel bar of 5mm in diameter and 300mm in length, is coated with sand to be 6.5mm in diameter. One set of RRP consists of 8 piles which are installed in circular patterns forming two concentric circles, each of which has 4 piles. Slanting angles of RRP for load tests are 0$^{\circ}$, 5$^{\circ}$, 10$^{\circ}$, 15$^{\circ}$, 20$^{\circ}$, and 25$^{\circ}$. In addition, compressive load tests on circular footing whose diameter is the same as the outer circle of RRP were carried out. Test results show that maximum load bearing capacities of RRP by regression analysis are obtained at about 12$^{\circ}$ and 13$^{\circ}$ of slanting angles for compressive and uplift load tests, respectively. Maximum compressive bearing capacity is estimated to be 13oA bigger than that of the vertical RRP and 95% bigger than that of surface footing. Maximum uplift capacity is estimated to be 21% bigger than that of the vertical RRP. And it can be appreciated that increasing the slanting angle makes the load -Settlement behavior more ductile.

모래지반의 상대밀도, 말뚝의 시공방법, 일정근입깊이에 따른 소요향타 에너지 그리고 지하수 조건에 따라 말뚝의 지지력과 하중전이를 연구하기 위하여 강관말뚝을 이용한 모형실험을 수행하였다. 매입말뚝은 말뚝을 미리 설치한후에 지반성형을 실시하였고, 타입말뚝은 매입말뚝과 같은 깊이까지 항타높이를 5, 10, 15cm로 달리하여 말뚝을 관입하였다. 그 뒤 정적하중을 단계적으로 가하여 하중-침하 곡선에 의한 모형 말뚝의 지지력과ㅏ 말뚝내의 등간격으로 설치된 변형 게이지를 이용하여 타입말뚝 의 하중전이에 대해 살펴보았다. 타입말뚝의 하중전이시험에서는 항타 전과 항타 후 말뚝내 하중전의 소효항타 에너지에 따른 변화를 관찰하였다. 매입말뚝의 시험결과는 현재 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 대표적인 정적 지지력 공식들에 의하여 계산되어진 값들과 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 상대밀도가 작은 느슨한모래지반에서는 Vesic 공식이 그리고 상대밀도가 큰 조밀한 모래지반에서는 Hanbu 공식이 가장 근접한 평가를 나타내었다. 하중전이시험에 의한 항타시 잔류응력은 모든 경우에서 지표면과 선단부위에서 아주 큰 잔류응력이 나타났고. 말뚝의 선단 지지력비는 상대밀도에 비례하게 증가하였다.

본 연구는 낙동강 하구 대심도 연약지반에 항타관입된 PHC 말뚝에 대하여 SPT 지지력 공식으로 부터 계산된 선단지지력 값과 PDA 시험에서 얻어진 선단지지력 측정값을 비교하였다. 또한, SPT N값이 50이 넘는 경우에 대하여는 N값과 롯드 관입깊이의 선형관계를 가정하여 30cm 관입깊이에 해당하는 N값을 적용한 경우와 CPT $q_c$와의 상관성을 이용하여 $q_c$값으로부터 N값을 산정한 경우의 2가지 분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 본 연구에서 적용한 SPT 지지력 공식 모두 측정된 선단지지력 값과 차이가 났으며, SPT 지지력 공식은 대심도 연약지반에 항타 근입된 말뚝에 대하여 실제적인 설계를 수행할 때 신뢰하기 어려운 것으로 나타났다. 또한, N>50인 경우에 대하여 N값과 롯드 관입깊이의 선형관계를 적용하는 것은 지지력을 매우 과대평가하는 것으로 나타났다.
