The use of pile foundations has become more popular in recent years, as the combined action of the pile cap and the piles can increase the bearing capacity, reduce settlement, and the piles can be arranged so as to reduce differential deflection in the pile cap. Piles are relatively long, slender members that transmit foundation loads through soil strata of low bearing capacity to deeper soil or rock strata having a high bearing capacity. In this study analysis of pile cap with considering different parameters like depth of the pile cap, width and breadth of the pile cap, type of piles and different types of soil which affect the behaviour of pile cap foundation is carried out by using Finite Element Software ANSYS. For understanding the settlement behaviour of pile cap foundation, parametric studies have been carried out in four types of clay by varying pile cap dimensions with two types of piles namely normal and under-reamed piles for different group of piles. Furthermore, the analysis results of settlement and stress values for the pile cap with normal and under-reamed piles are compared. From the study it can be concluded that settlement values of pile cap with under-reamed pile are less than the settlements of pile cap with normal pile. It means that the ultimate load bearing capacity of pile cap with under-reamed piles are greater than the pile cap with normal piles.

Large diameter piles can be defined as piles with diameter of at least 0.76 m (2.5 ft). In bridge foundation, large diameter piles have been used as pier foundations and their use has been increased greatly. In this study, static pile load tests for large diameter piles peformed in Kwangan Grande Bridge construction site were introduced. Also, various sensor installation methods for several types of piles (that is, open-ended steel pipe pile, drilled shafts and socketed pipe piles), pipe axial load measuring method, load transfer analysis method and pile load test results (pile-head load - settlement curve, and pile axial load distribution curve along the pile depth) were introduced.

The coupled soil-pile-structure seismic response is recently in the spotlight of researchers because of its extensive applications in the different fields of engineering such as bridges, offshore platforms, wind turbines, and buildings. In this paper, a simple analytical model is developed to evaluate the dynamic performance of seismically isolated bridges considering triple interactions of soil, piles, and bridges simultaneously. Novel expressions are proposed to present the dynamic behavior of pile groups in inhomogeneous soils with various shear modulus along with depth. Both cohesive and cohesionless soil deposits can be simulated by this analytical model with a generalized function of varied shear modulus along the soil depth belonging to an inhomogeneous stratum. The methodology is discussed in detail and validated by rigorous dynamic solution of 3D continuum modeling, and time history analysis of centrifuge tests. The proposed analytical model accuracy is guaranteed by the acceptable agreement between the experimental/numerical and analytical results. A comparison of the proposed linear model results with nonlinear centrifuge tests showed that during moderate (frequent) earthquakes the relative differences in responses of the superstructure and the pile cap can be ignored. However, during strong excitations, the response calculated in the linear time history analysis is always lower than the real conditions with the nonlinear behavior of the soil-pile-bridge system. The current simple and efficient method provides the accuracy and the least computational costs in comparison to the full three-dimensional analyses.

본 연구는 매설 조건이 불건전한 건설 현장에 매설된 삼중관이 항타 진동에 노출되었을 경우에 발생하는 배관의 거동을 매설 심도에 따라 분석하였다. 매설 배관으로부터 20m의 이격 거리를 갖는 항타 에너지는 7tonf의 램이 1.2m에서 낙하하였을 경우로 선정하였고, 매설 심도는 0.6, 1.4, 2.2, 3.0, 3.8m로 변화하여 연구를 진행하였다. 관의 길이방향 중심에서의 진동 속도와 응력을 확인 하였고, 감쇠비를 고려하여 삼중관의 거동을 분석하였다. 이격거리가 동일한 경우의 진동 속도에 대한 감쇠율은 매설 심도가 증가함에 따라 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 또한, 내관에서 응력 감쇠율도 매설 심도가 증가함에 따라 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다.

Stock(1992) had developed the graph for solving the penetration depth, tieforce of anchor and maximum bending moment of sheet-pile wall for cantilever and free earth supported anchored wall. Kim(1995) had developed graph for design of fixed earth supported anchored wall. In this paper, the simplified formulas for calculating the penetration depth, tieforce of anchor and maximum bending moment of sheet-pile wall was developed for fixed earth supported anchored wall in sand. The developed formulas may be helpful for design or sheet pile wall.

The study deals with physical modeling of a typical three storeyed building frame supported by a pile group of four piles ($2{\times}2$) embedded in cohesive soil mass using three dimensional finite element analysis. For the purpose of modeling, the elements such as beams, slabs and columns, of the superstructure frame; and that of the pile foundation such as pile and pile cap are descretized using twenty noded isoparametric continuum elements. The interface between the pile and the soil is idealized using sixteen node isoparametric surface element. The soil elements are modeled using eight nodes, nine nodes and twelve node continuum elements. The present study considers the linear elastic behaviour of the elements of superstructure and substructure (i.e., foundation). The soil is assumed to behave non-linear. The parametric study is carried out for studying the effect of soil- structure interaction on response of the frame on the premise of sub-structure approach. The frame is analyzed initially without considering the effect of the foundation (non-interaction analysis) and then, the pile foundation is evaluated independently to obtain the equivalent stiffness; and these values are used in the interaction analysis. The spacing between the piles in a group is varied to evaluate its effect on the interactive behaviour of frame in the context of two embedment depth ratios. The response of the frame included the horizontal displacement at the level of each storey, shear force in beams, axial force in columns along with the bending moments in beams and columns. The effect of the soil- structure interaction is observed to be significant for the configuration of the pile groups and in the context of non-linear behaviour of soil.

말뚝두부와 기초판의 연결방법으로서 기존의 강선남김방식은 시공성이 좋지 않고, 말뚝두부에 파손 및 균열이 발생할 가능성이 높을 뿐만 아니라 현장 인명사고가 자주 발생하여 최근에는 대안적인 방법으로서 원커팅에 의한 철근보강 방식이 제안되어 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 방법들은 역학적인 성능규명에 의하여 그 상세가 구체적으로 제안 또는 검증된 사례가 없다. 이 연구는 원커팅 철근보강 방식에 있어서 최적 보강상세를 제안 할 목적으로 후 타설된 말뚝 내 속채움 콘크리트와 말뚝간의 전단마찰 저항력의 부족으로 인한 파괴를 실험을 통하여 규명하고, 적정 채움 깊이를 제안하였다. 실험결과에 근거하여 말뚝 부착파괴 강도를 안전측의 값으로 0.4MPa를 가정한다면, 부착파괴 이전에 철근이 항복에 도달하도록 하기 위해서 속채움 콘크리트의 깊이는 최소한 PHC 450과 PHC 500의 경우 600mm 이상, PHC 600의 경우 1,000mm 이상 확보하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

Nowadays, owing to the development of analysis techniques for PDA test, we can evaluate the serious damage of pile during driving in site. In this study, we checked the damage of pile by pulling it out after evaluation of the pile damage during driving by PDA testing. After that, almost damaged pile was checked and the outline depth of damage could be verified. To increase the quality of driven pile, we have to increase the number of PDA testing for drivability analysis with checking the damage especially for preliminary pile driving and dynamic load test for checking the bearing capacity and consider the application of driving by energy monitoring.

Monopiles have been most widely used for supporting offshore wind turbines (OWTs) in shallow water areas. However, multi-member lattice-type structures such as jackets and tripods are also considered good alternatives to monopile foundations for relatively deep water areas with depth ranging from 25-50 m owing to their technical and economic feasibility. Moreover, jacket structures have been popular in the oil and gas industry for a long time. However, several unsolved technical issues still persist in the utilization of multi-member lattice-type supporting structures for OWTs; these problems include pile-soil-interaction (PSI) effects, realization of dynamically stable designs to avoid resonances, and quick and safe installation in remote areas. In this study, the effects of PSI on the dynamic properties of bottom-fixed OWTs, including monopile-, tripod- and jacket-supported OWTs, were investigated intensively. The tower and substructure were modeled using conventional beam elements with added mass, and pile foundations were modeled with beam and nonlinear spring elements. The effects of PSI on the dynamic properties of the structure were evaluated using Monte Carlo simulation considering the load amplitude, scouring depth, and the uncertainties in soil properties.
