Engineers should be careful in the design of bonding piles into pile caps because they are weak points in the pile foundation. Therefore in this study, the mechanism of bonding piles into pile caps was explained, and the design method of the composite bonding method was proposed. And the proposed design method was verified in comparison with the result of the full scale test. Also, the characteristic for the bearing capacity and the mechanism of compressive load of bonding method were analyzed.

The existing bonding methods of steel pipe piles into pile caps have many problems during construction or design. To overcome these, the composite bonding method of the bolting type and the welding type are proposed in this stud\ulcorner. The full scale test and the numerical analysis using finite element method were performed to verify the function of them. As results, the method of the filled with concrete in steel pipe piles head was good effective to increse strength. And the composite bonding methods are effective to protect the damage caused by earthquake than the bolted bonding method. Also, the composite bonding methods are cheaper than the existing bonding methods and a good construction as well.
