Pile foundations of existing bridges lie in soil and water environment for long term and endure relatively heavy vertical loads, thus prone to damages, especially after stricken by external forces, such as earthquake, collision, soil heap load and etc., and the piles may be injured to certain degrees as well. There is a relatively complete technical system for quality inspection of new bridge pile foundations without structures on the top. However, there is no mature technical standard in the engineering community for the non-destructive testing technology specific to the existing bridge pile foundations. The quality of bridge pile foundations has always been a major problem that plagues bridge maintenance. On the basis of many years' experiences in test engineering and theoretical studies, this study developed a new type of detection technology and equipment for the existing bridge piles.

The aim of this study is to estimate the field applicability of PBFM to replace in-site soil with pile backfill used to replace the existing cement paste. As results, the flowability, segregation and bleeding, and bond strength of PBFM was a good performance than that of the existing cement paste. But the skin friction of pile by Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA) and compressive strength was slightly decreased than that of the existing cement paste. However, as pile backfill materials, and in terms of economics and environment, the applicability of PBFM is considered very effective.

Micropiled raft has been used to support the existing and new structures or to provide the seismic reinforcement of foundation systems. Recently, research on micropile or micropiled raft has been actively conducted as the usage of micropile has increased, and the reinforcement effect of pile for the raft, the pile installation methods, and methods for calculating the bearing capacity of micropiled raft have been proposed. In addition, existing research results show that the behavior of this foundation system is different depending on the pile conditions and can be greatly influenced by the characteristics of the upper or lower ground depending on the conditions of pile. In other words, considering that the micropile is a friction pile, it can be predicted that the reinforcing effect of micropile for the raft and the bearing capacity of micropiled raft may depend on the cohesion of upper soil layer depending on the pile conditions. However, existing studies have limitations in that they were conducted without taking this into account. However, existing studies have limitations as they have been conducted without considering these characteristics. Accordingly, this study investigated the reinforcing effect of micropile and the bearing characteristics of micropiled raft by varying the cohesion of upper soil layer and the stiffness of pile which affect the behavior of micropiled raft. In this results, the reinforcing effect of micropile on the raft also increased as the cohesion of soil layer increased, but the reinforcing effect of pile was more effective in ground conditions with decreased the cohesion. In addition, the relationship between the axial stiffness of micropile and the bearing capacity of micropiled raft was found to be a logarithmic linear relationship. It was found that the reinforcing effect of micropile can increase the bearing capacity of raft by 1.33~ 3.72 times depending on the cohesion of soil layer and the rigidity of pile.

본 연구는 3차원 수치해석을 통해 기존말뚝과 보강말뚝의 하중분담율(Load Distribution Ratio)과 근사적 해석 기법으로 보강말뚝의 축방향 강성(Axial Stiffness)을 산정하였다. 시공단계를 고려하여 말뚝기초의 LDR에 영향을 미치는 인자를 파악하기 위해서 1) 말뚝기초의 강성, 2) 말뚝기초의 선단지지조건, 3) 기초판 접촉효과, 4) 보강말뚝의 설치위치에 따라 해석을 수행하여 기존말뚝과 신설말뚝의 하중분담율 거동을 확인하였다. 또한 5) 기존말뚝의 축방향 강성($K_{ve}$)를 사용하여 말뚝지지 전면기초의 3차원 근사적 해석기법(YSPR)으로 보강말뚝의 직경에 따른 강성($K_{vr}$)을 산정하고, 장기간 사용으로 인한 경화를 고려하여 $K_{ve}$를 3단계로 나누어 감소시켜 보강말뚝의 강성 변화의 경향을 살펴보고, 신설 말뚝의 강성 산정방법을 제시하였다.

The existing methods for installation of long steel pipe pile have some uneconomical problems such as increase of installation cost and period due to the welding of two piles and removal of soil plug, and decrease of driving efficiency due to the increase of driving resistance by time effect during the welding of piles and removal of soil plug, etc. Thus, in this study, new installation method for long steel pipe pile is suggested to work out the existing problems, and calibration chamber tests are peformed to investigate both driving and economical efficiency for the suggested method. The test results showed that the new installation method has increase bearing capacity as well as reduce installation cost and period for long steel pipe piles as compared with existing methods.

In remodeling business or construction of both new strucures and existing structures, Case that pile foundation was set is often. Micro pile, holding compressive force and tensile force by spherical friction, is supported by skin friction rather than end bearing capacity. but, This is weak in tension. Active area of micro pile's skin friction is narrow and micro pile don't do unification behavior hence. So bearing capacity was not fully mobilized in existing researching. In this study, in order to compensate for this method, micro pile to install Resisting Fixture is proposed.

In the current work, a series of three-dimensional finite element analyses have been conducted to investigate the behaviour of pre-existing single piles in response to adjacent tunnelling by considering the tunnel face pressures and the relative locations of the pile tips with respect to the tunnel. Via numerical modelling, the effect of the face pressures on the pile behaviour has been analysed. In addition, the analyses have concentrated on the ground settlements, the pile head settlements and the shear stress transfer mechanism at the pile-soil interface. The settlements of the pile directly above the tunnel crown (with a vertical distance between the pile tip and the tunnel crown of 0.25D, where D is the tunnel diameter) with a face pressure of 50% of the in situ horizontal soil stress at the tunnel springline decreased by approximately 38% compared to the corresponding pile settlements with the minimum face pressure, namely, 25% of the in situ horizontal soil stress at the tunnel springline. Furthermore, the smaller the face pressure is, the larger the tunnelling-induced ground movements, the axial pile forces and the interface shear stresses. The ground settlements and the pile settlements were heavily affected by the face pressures and the positions of the pile tip with respect to the tunnel. When the piles were inside the tunnel influence zone, tensile forces were induced on piles, while compressive pile forces were expected to develop for piles that are outside the influence zone and on the boundary. In addition, the computed results have been compared with relevant previous studies that were reported in the literature. The behaviour of the piles that is triggered by adjacent tunnelling has been extensively examined and analysed by considering the several key features in substantial detail.

본 연구에서는 수직증축 구조물의 기존말뚝의 축강성(K_ve)을 이론적인 접근과 현장 계측 결과를 바탕으로 추정하였다. 이론적인 접근에는 Randolph와 Wroth(1978)가 제안한 축강성 공식을 적용하여, 지중에 설치된 강성 및 연성말뚝의 세장비(L/D)에 따른 축강성의 범위를 도출하였다. 여기에, 1995 - 1997년 사이에 설치된 38본 말뚝의 계측된 시공 당시 축강성을 이론적으로 도출한 축강성 범위에 중첩해서 고려하였다. 이를 통하여, 노후화와 열화에 의하여 감소한 기존말뚝의 축강성의 최대값을 세장비에 따라 제안하였고, 도출된 값을 통계적인 기법을 통하여 상위 95% 값을 제안하여 신설 보강말뚝 설계 시 필요한 최소 축강성(K_vr)을 산정하는 데에 활용할 수 있도록 하였다.

In this study, we concerned the steel cap and head part arrangement of PHC pile structure to complement existing construction process which have the defects such as highly hazardous circumstance for safety concerns and retard a term of works. The steel cap developed for supplement the stiffness between extend foundation and contact section of PHC pile that is based on structural theory. The experiments have been performed to evaluate the characteristics of behavior between head part of PHC pile using steel cap and extend foundation.
