In this study the behavior of piles with an extended head is invested experimentally using reduced-scale model tests. Special attention is given to verifying the increase of end bearing capacity of piles with spreading head. Model piles and extended head plates made of steel pipe were used in this study. Bearing capacity of piles is regarded as only end bearing capacity. The study analyzed the tendency of single and group pile of bearing capacity compared with the existing PHC pile, and examined optimum effect of extended head.

기초의 지지방식 중 깊은 기초로 분류되는 말뚝기초는 일반적으로 고강도의 기성강관(Spiral Steel Pipe)을 재료로 한 말뚝을 사용하는 것이 설계 및 시공측면에서 유리하나, 현재 국내 외의 치솟는 건설원자재 비용 및 고유가에 따른 장거리 운반비용의 증가와 더불어 건설현장에서의 경제적 부담이 상당부분 증가되고 있는 실정이다. 특히, 개발후진국을 비롯한 건설 산업의 국제적 진출에 대한 활기와 더불어 해외현장 변동상황(원자재의 수급 문제에 따른 공기지연 및 경제성) 등을 고려하면 이에 대한 능동적인 대처가 절실할 수 있다. 본 사례는 중동지역 $\bigcirc\bigcirc$조선소의 이러한 현장여건을 고려하여 중 소하중 규모의 크레인 기초에 적용된 말뚝의 구조 해석적 검토와 지역 지반조건을 반영하여 안정하고 현지조달이 가능한 말뚝 재료의 변경을 제안한 경우이다. 본 검토에서는 기초 말뚝의 정역학적 허용지지력과 기초지반 조건을 고려한 항타관입 분석 및 크레인 이동하중을 고려한 응력해석을 실시하여 최대연직력, 모멘트, 전단력, 응력비 등을 비교하였으며, 동일한 검토조건하에서 결과를 바탕으로 변경 가능한 말뚝을 선정하였다. 기초지반에 대한 적정안전율을 갖는 허용지지력 및 구조적 안정성의 확보가 가능한 콘크리트 말뚝으로의 변경이 가능하며 상부하중 규모에 따라 설치간격에 따른 파일본수의 증 감이 발생되었다.

Hollow prestressed concrete-filled steel tube (HCFT) piles, which combines PHC piles inside thin-wall steel tubes, were developed to increase the flexural strength of the pile with respect to the lateral load. Since P-M curves are needed for evaluating the structural safety of piles when applying HCFT piles to fields, equations for plotting P-M curves of HCFT piles in limit states were proposed. When the yield strength is applied to the steel tube and PC steel bar of HCFT piles, the proposed equations significantly underestimated the flexural strength of HCFT piles. Unlike the flexural strength test results, the proposed equations also provide greater flexural strengths for 12 mm thick steel pipe piles with the same diameter than for HCFT piles. However, when the ultimate strengths are used instead of the yield strengths for the steel tube and PC steel bar, the proposed equations provide the flexural strengths very close to the flexural strength test results.

Dynamic and static load tests are conducted in four construction sites by using steel pipe piles(SPP) and concrete piles to compare differences of load bearing mechanism. Steel pipe piles are instrumented with electric strain gages and are subject to dynamic load tests during driving. The damage of strain gages attached is checked simultaneously. Static load test is also conducted on the same piles after two to seven days' elapse. Then load-settlement behavior and shaft and/or tip resistances are measured. As a result, the allowable bearing capacity calculated by the Davisson's offset method of CAPWAP analysis shows 2~33% larger than that of static load test. The average value of allowable bearing capacity of static load test is closer to the allowable capacity obtained at the safety factor of 2.5 applied on ultimate bearing capacity than to the one obtained from the Davisson's offset method. The analysis of strain gage readings shows that unit skin friction increases with depth. Furthermore, the friction mobilized around the 1~2m above the pile tip considerably contributes to the total shaft resistance.
