Fourteen model pile load tests using a calibration chamber and instrumented model pile were preformed to investigate the variation of the behaviors of driven piles in sands with soil and lateral cyclic loading conditions. Results of the model tests showed that the first loading cycle generated more than 70% of the pile head rotation developed for 50 lateral loading cycles. Lateral cyclic loading also made an increase of the ultimate lateral load capacity of piles for $K_0$=0.4 and an decrease for $K_0$ higher than 0.4. Higher portion of the increase or decrease in the ultimate lateral load capacity by lateral cyclic loading was generated for the first loading cycle due to densification of loosening of the soil around the pile by lateral cyclic loading. It was also observed that a two-way cyclic loading caused higher ultimate lateral load capacity of driven piles than a one-way cyclic loading. When the pile was in the ultimate state, the maximum bending moment developed in the pile increased with increasing $K_0$ value of soil and was insensitive to the magnitude and number of lateral cyclic loading.

In order to investigate the effect of the loading rate on the mechanical behavior of SRC shearwalls, we conducted the lateral loading tests on the 1/3 scale model shearwalls whose edge columns were reinforced by H-shaped steel. The specimens were subjected to the reversed cyclic lateral load under a variable axial load. The two types of loading rate, 0.01 cm/sec for the static loading and 1 cm/sec for the dynamic loading were adopted. The failure mode in all specimens was the sliding shear of the in-filled wall panel. The edge columns did not fail in shear. The initial lateral stiffness and lateral load carrying capacity of the shearwalls subjected to the dynamic loading were about 10% larger than those subjected to the static loading. The effects of the arrangement of the H-shaped steel on the lateral load carrying capacity and the lateral load-displacement hysteresis response were not significant.

Drained cyclic triaxial tests were conducted on a saturated sand to examine its deformation characteristics under either axial or lateral cyclic loading condition. To apply lateral cyclic loading, the cell pressure was cycled while maintaining a constant vertical stress. The strain accumulations and flow direction in the soil were presented and discussed considering various initial stress ratios (η₀), cyclic stress amplitudes and cyclic stress paths. The results indicate that axial strain accumulation shows an exponential increase with the maximum stress ratio (η^max). The initial deviatoric stress has comparable effects with lateral cyclic stress amplitude on the accumulated axial strain. In contrast, the accumulated volumetric strain is directly proportional to the lateral cyclic stress amplitude but not much affected by η₀ values. Due to the anisotropy of the soil, the accumulated axial and lateral bulging strains are greater in lateral cyclic loading when compared to axial cyclic loading even though η^max is the same. It is also found that η^max affects soil's lateral deformation and increasing the ratio could change the lateral deformation from contraction to bulging. The flow direction depends on η^max in the sand under lateral cyclic loading, regardless of η₀ values and the cyclic stress amplitudes, and a large η^max could lead to great deviatoric strain but a little volumetric strain accumulation.

최근 말뚝기초의 수평저항력에 대한 연구들이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 말뚝기초의 수평저항력에 대한 실험연구들의 경우 변위제어법 또는 하중제어법을 사용하고 있다. 하지만 변위제어법의 경우 말뚝에 가해지는 하중의 속도에 따라 말뚝의 수평저항력이 달라진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모형실험을 통해 수평재하속도에 따른 말뚝기초의 수평저항력 변화를 파악하고자 한다. 실험결과 말뚝두부에 가해지낸 수평재하속도가 빠를수록 말뚝의 수평저항력이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이를 확인하기 위해 재하속도에 따른 지반과 말뚝의 측면변경 모형실험을 추가적으로 진행하였으며, 그 결과 재하속도가 빠를수록 말뚝의 회전절점의 깊이가 감소하였다. 역해석을 통해 수평재하 속도에 따른 회전절점의 깊이 변화를 파악하였다. 수평재하속도에 따른 말뚝기초의 수평저항력과 회전절점의 깊이 변화를 통해, 말뚝의 수평재하시험시 재하속도는 1.5mm/min 이내로 시험하는 것을 제안하였다.

반복수평하중을 받는 말뚝의 거동은 반복하중의 크기와 재하횟수 뿐만 아니라 반복하중의 재하방법(한방향 또는 양방향 재하)에도 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 반복수평하중의 재하방법이 모래지반에 타입된 항타말뚝의 거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서 가압토조를 이용한 모형말뚝재하시험을 수행하였다. 실험결과에 따르면 반복수평하중을 한방향으로 받는 말뚝의 누적 영구수평변위는 최초 재하방향과 같은 방향으로 발생하지만, 반복하중을 양방향으로 받는 말뚝의 영구수평변위는 최초 재하방향과 반대 방향으로 발생하였다. 그리고 이와 같은 반복하중의 재하방법에 따른 말뚝 영구수평변위의 변화로 인해 한방향 반복재하는 말뚝의 반복극한수평지지력을 감소시키고 양방향 반복 재하는 말뚝의 반복극한수평지지력을 증가시켰으며, 수평하중의 반복재하횟수가 많아질수록 하중의 재하방법에 따른 말뚝의 반복극한수평지지력 차이는 더욱 확대되었다. 또한 반복수평하중의 재하방법에 따른 말뚝 주변지반의 다짐도 차이로 인해 수평하중이 반복재하되는 동안 말뚝에 발생하는 최대 휨모멘트는 반복하중이 양방향보다 한방향으로 재하되는 경우에 더 크게 나타났다. 그러나 극한상태에서 말뚝에 발생한 최대 휨모멘트는 반복하중이 한방향보다 양방향으로 재하된 경우에 그리고 반복재하를 받은 경우보다 그렇지 않은 경우에 더 큰 것으로 조사되었다.

By conducting uniaxial loading cycle tests on the coal rock with outburst proneness, the dilatation characteristics at different loading rates were investigated. Under uniaxial loading and unloading, the lateral deformation of coal rock increased obviously before failure, leading to coal dilatation. Moreover, the post-unloading recovery of the lateral deformation was rather small, suggesting the onset of an accelerated failure. As the loading rate increased further, the ratio of the stress at the dilatation critical point to peak-intensity increased gradually, and the pre-peak volumetric deformation decreased with more severe post-peak damage. Based on the laboratory test results, the lateral deformation of the coals at different depths in the #1302 isolated coal pillars, Yangcheng Coal Mine, was monitored using wall rock displacement meter. The field monitoring result indicates that the coal lateral displacement went through various distinct stages: the lateral displacement of the coals at the depth of 2-6 m went through an "initial increase-stabilize-step up-plateau" series. When the coal wall of the working face was 24-18 m away from the measuring point, the coals in this region entered the accelerated failure stage; as the working face continued advancing, the lateral displacement of the coals at the depth over 6 m increased steadily, i.e., the coals in this region were in the stable failure stage.

In this paper, the Coefficient of Subgrade Reaction was analyzed from the data which were the results of lateral pile loading tests and pressuremeter tests on construction sites. The prediction method with N-value was compared with lateral pile loading tests and the results of lateral pile loading tests were compared with the prediction method considering diameter of a pile. Also, the results of lateral pressuremeter tests were compared with those of lateral pile loading tests. As a result, consideration for a diameter and lateral deformation of a pile was needed when the coefficient of horizontal subgrade reaction is presumed. Therefore, a formula which is taking into account the allowable deformation of a pile was suggested from lateral pressuremeter tests in this study.

The model tests of short pile with very small pile length/diameter(L/D) were performed in this paper. Varying the pile diameter, length, and the lateral loading point, the lateral resistance and behavior of very short pile were studied in this model tests. The experimental and analytical results are as follows. The lateral ultimate resistance of short pile in sands was the maximum at the point of h/L=0.75, regardless of pile length/diameter(L/D). As the pile diameter is larger, the lateral ultimate resistance of pile with L/D=1 decreases a little and the lateral resistance increases according to the ratio of pile length/diameter. As the lateral loads are acting on the pile, the displacement of pile head is maximum at the pile top of h/L=0, but minimum at the middle point of the pile. And if the loading point is under the middle of pile, the displacement of pile head occurs oposite in the loading direction, but its magnitude is very small.

In offshore engineering, lateral cyclic loading may induce excessive lateral movement and bending strain in pile foundations. Previous studies mainly focused on deformation mechanisms of single piles due to lateral cyclic loading. In this paper, centrifuge model tests were conducted to investigate the response of a $2{\times}2$ pile group due to lateral cyclic loading in clay. After applying each loading-unloading cycle, the pile group cannot move back to its original location. It implies that residual movement and bending strain are induced in the pile group. This is because cyclic loading induces plastic deformation in the soil surrounding the piles. As the cyclic load increases from 62.5 to 375 kN, the ratio of the residual to the maximum pile head movements varies from 0.30 to 0.84. Moreover, the ratio of the residual to the maximum bending strains induced in the piles is in a range of 0.23 to 0.82. The bending strain induced in the front pile is up to 3.2 times as large as that in the rear pile. Thus, much more protection measures should be applied to the front piles to ensure the serviceability and safety of pile foundations.
