This paper presents a new numerical solution of the ultimate lateral capacity of rectangular piles in clay. The two-dimensional plane strain finite element was employed to determine the limit load of this problem. A rectangular pile is subjected to purely lateral loading along either its major or minor axes. Complete parametric studies were performed for two dimensionless variables including: (1) the aspect ratios of rectangular piles were studied in the full range from plates to square piles loaded along either their major or minor axes; and (2) the adhesion factors between the soil-pile interface were studied in the complete range from smooth surfaces to rough surfaces. It was found that the dimensionless load factor of rectangular piles showed a highly non-linear function with the aspect ratio of piles and a slightly non-linear function with the adhesion factor at the soil-pile interface. In addition, the dimensionless load factor of rectangular piles loaded along the major axis was significantly higher than that loaded along the minor axis until it converged to the same value at square piles. The solutions of finite element analyses were verified with the finite element limit analysis for selected cases. The empirical equation of the dimensionless load factor of rectangular piles was also proposed based on the data of finite element analysis. Because of the plane strain condition of the top view section, results can be only applied to the full-flow failure mechanism around the pile for the prediction of limiting pressure at the deeper length of a very long pile with full tension interface that does not allow any separation at soil-pile interfaces.

In Hong Kong, large-diameter (${\ge}600mm$) bored piles and large-section excavated rectangular barrettes are commonly used to support tall buildings to resist both vertical and horizontal loads. These piles and barrettes penetrate through and may found in saprolitic soils and decomposed rocks. Generally, the design of these large bored piles and barrettes involves considerable amount of uncertainty and design parameters must usually be verified by field tests. In this paper, over 50 full-scale load tests on large-diameter bored piles and over 15 large-section of rectangular barrettes in Hong Kong are reviewed and interpreted critically, in particular the degree of mobilisation of side shear resistance using a mobilization rating (MR) factor and a displacement index (DI) for floating bored piles and barrettes and rock-socketed piles, respectively. The author was heavily involved with many of these load tests. The diameter of the bored piles tested ranges from 0.6m to 1.8m and the depth varies from 12m to 75m. Sizes of barrettes critically reviewed include $2.2m{\times}0.6m,\;2.2m{\times}0.8m,\;2.8m{\times}0.8m\;and\;2.8m{\times}1.0m$ (on plan) and the depth varies from 36m and 63m. Based on these field tests, a new failure load criterion for large-diameter bored piles and barrettes is developed and proposed. The side shear resistance of the bored piles and barrettes is quantitatively analyzed with respect to local displacements, standard penetration tests, unconfined compressive strength (UCS) for rock sockets and using the effective stress principle. In addition, the effects of construction including post-grouting, construction time, side scraping and excavation tools on side shear resistance are investigated and reported.

본 연구는 측방변형을 일으키는 수평모래지반에 매설된 사각형 수동열말뚝의 모형실험에 대한 것이다. 말뚝의 형상, 열말뚝의 위치, 말뚝의 간격과 지반변형에 따른 열말뚝의 특성을 고찰하고자 하였다. 실험결과는 다음과 같다. 수평응력의 분포양상은 말뚝의 형상과 위치에 따라 삼각형, 사다리꼴, 사각형의 형태로 다양하게 나타났다. 휨모멘트는 B-type의 경우 outer pile이 inner pile보다 크게 나타났으나, H-type의 경우는 inner pile이 outer pile 보다 크게 나타났다. 수평저항력비$(R_f)$는 말뚝의 형상에 관계없이 열말뚝의 수평간격이 증가함에 따라 증가하는 경향으로 나타났다. 수평저항력의 작용점위치(Y/L)는 지반변위와 수평간격에 따라 큰 변화를 보이지 않으며, H-type이 B-type보다 조금 크게 나타났다.

본 연구는 지반변형을 일으키는 경사모래지반에 매설된 사각형 수동열말뚝의 모형실험에 대한 것이다. 실험은 지반의 경사각을 조절하여 지반파괴를 유도 하였고, 말뚝의 형상, 위치, 간격을 달리하여 말뚝 거동을 측정하였다. 그 결과 수동말뚝에 작용하는 토압과 수평저항력 그리고 지반변형억제 효과를 확인하였다. 전면 폭이 넓은 B-type 말뚝이 측면 폭이 넓은 H-type 말뚝보다 지반변형억제 효과가 크게 나타났다. 사면경사에 따른 수평저항력 그래프를 이용하여 사면의 파괴각, 말뚝과 지반의 분담력을 알 수 있다.

In this study, the applicability of PHC pile jointing method using rectangular steel tubular was studied. PHC pile joints are welded and bolt assembly. The bolt assembly method is a method that improves the various problems of welded joints. Numerical analysis and tests were conducted to analyze the applicability of the PHC pile jointing method using a rectangular steel tubular. The tests were carried out to test the material properties of the rectangular steel tubular material and the bending test of the pile joints. The numerical analysis was interpreted in the same conditons as the tests conditions. As a result, the material strength of each rectangular steel tubular could be used as a joint material. In the bending test, it was evaluated as a sTable material above the allowable stress of piles. In the numerical analysis results under the same conditions as the tests, it was possible to apply the pile joint material without exceeding the allowable stress of the material.

본 연구에서는 군말뚝 교각 주위에서의 세굴특성을 실험을 통하여 파악하였다. 실험은 4개, 9개, 15개, 35개의 파일로 구성된 군말뚝에 대해 수행하여 파일수, 유속, 접근각에 따른 세굴형상, 최대세굴심의 깊이 및 위치의 변화를 살펴보았다. 실험결과에 의하면, 4개 및 9개로 구성된 군말뚝의 경우 유속비와 상관없이 단일교각의 최대세굴심과 흡사하였고, 15개와 35개로 구성된 군말뚝의 경우 유속비가 증가함에 따라 최대세굴심도 급격히 증가하여 단일교각 세굴심 의 약 2.2배 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 세굴형태는 말뚝간격이 조밀해질수록 원형의 세굴공이 중첩되어 전체적으로 직사각형의 형태를 띠는 것으로 나타났다. 75개의 파일로 구성된 군말뚝에 대한 접근각의 영향을 살펴본 결과 세굴심은 접근각이 35$^{\circ}$에서 최대가 되었으며 이때의 세굴공은 대각선 방향으로 형성됨을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, two large pile load tests were performed in the deep sand gravel deposit of Nakdong river basin so that the characteristics of the load transfer was identified. The fully instrumented rectangular barrette pile in the size of $1.5\times3.0m$ and the circular bored pile of the diameter 1.5 m were placed into the ground below 50 m. Under the applied loads of 2,400 tonf and 4,000 tonf, the test results of the load transfer showed the portion of 83% and 93% of the applied loads on the barrette pile and the bored pile, respectively, were supported by the skin friction along the pile shaft. It was revealed that the most of these skin friction mobilized in sand layer underlying clay layer having N-value more than 30 and that the friction per unit area of the bored pile was larger than the friction of barrette pile. However, if embedded in the stiff sand graval layer, the both piles were proven to be sufficient for using as the friction piles.

Recent changes in the construction method of piles to minimize noise, along with the development of high-strength reinforcement, have provided an economical high performance RC pile development to compensate for the disadvantages of existing PHC piles. In this study, a methodology for the development of cross - section details of high performance RC piles of various performances is presented by freely applying high strength steel and concrete. This study suggested a technique for calculating bending moments for a given axial force corresponding to the allowable crack widths and this can be used for serviceablity check. In calculating the design shear force, the existing design equation applicable to the rectangular or the I section was modified to be applicable to the hollow circular section. In particular, in the limit state design method, the shear force is calculated in proportion to the axial force, and the procedure for calculating PV diagram is established. Last, the section details are determined through PM diagrams that they have the similar flexural and axial-flexural performances of the PHC pile A, B and C types with a diameter of 500 mm. To facilitate the application of the selected standard sections to the practical tasks, the design PM diagram and design shear forces are proposed in accordance with the strength design method and limit state design method.

Paper presents an improved solution algorithm based on Finite Element Method to analyse piled raft foundation. Piles are modelled as beam elements with soil springs. Finite element analysis of raft is based on the classical theory of thick plates resting on Winkler foundation that accounts for the transverse shear deformation of the plate. Four node, isoparametric rectangular elements with three degrees of freedom per node are considered in the development of finite element formulation. Independent bilinear shape functions are assumed for displacement and rotational degrees of freedom. Effect of raft thickness, soil modulus and load pattern on the response is considered. Significant improvement in the settlements and moments in the raft is observed.
