본 연구에서는 사질지반에서 말뚝전면기초와 전면기초와의 거동을 유한요소해석을 이용하여 비교하였다. 25개의 시추공의 표준관입시험의 결과를 이용하여 구한 토질정수를 유한요소해석에 사용하였다. 말뚝을 사용하지 않은 전면기초의 경우 $8m{\times}8m$ and $15m{\times}15m$의 크기의 정규화된 침하계수는 각각 1.02~1.15 and 0.64~0.81의 범위로 나타났다. 전면기초의 두께는 부등침하와 휨모멘트에 영향을 미치고 하중분담과 최대침하에는 큰 영향이 없었다. 말뚝의 간격은 최대침하와 부등침하, 휨모멘트에, 말뚝의 하중분담에 영향을 받고 반면에 부등침하와 휨모멘트는 말뚝의 길이에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

This is an experimental study to investigate the behaviour of piled raft system in different types of sandy soil. A small scale "prototype" model was tested in a sand box with load applied to the foundation through a compression jack and measured by means of load cell. The settlement was measured at the raft by means of dial gauges, three strain gauges were attached on piles to measure the strains and calculate the load carried by each pile in the group. Nine configurations of group ($1{\times}2$, $1{\times}3$, $1{\times}4$, $2{\times}2$, $2{\times}3$, $2{\times}4$, $3{\times}3$, $3{\times}4$ and $4{\times}4$) were tested in the laboratory as a free standing pile group (the raft not in contact with the soil) and as a piled raft (the raft in contact with the soil), in addition to tests for raft (unpiled) with different sizes. It is found that when the number of piles within the group is small (less than 4), there is no evident contribution of the raft to the load carrying capacity. The failure load for a piled raft consisting of 9 piles is approximately 100% greater than free standing pile group containing the same number of piles. This difference increases to about 4 times for 16 pile group. The piles work as settlement reducers effectively when the number of piles is greater than 6 than when the number of piles is less than 6. The settlement can be increased by about 8 times in ($1{\times}2$) free standing pile group compared to the piled raft of the same size. The effect of piled raft in reducing the settlement vanishes when the number of piles exceeds 6.

The load sharing ratio (${\alpha}_{pr}$) of piles is one of the most common problems in the preliminary design of piled raft foundations. A series of 3D numerical analysis are conducted so that special attentions are given to load sharing characteristics under varying conditions, such as pile configuration, pile diameter, pile length, raft thickness, and settlement level. Based on the 3D FE analysis, influencing factors on load sharing behavior of piled raft are investigated. As a result, it is shown that the load sharing ratio of piled raft decreases with increasing settlement level. The load sharing ratio is not only highly dependent on the system geometries of the foundation but also on the settlement level. Based on the results of parametric studies, the load sharing ratio is proposed as a function of the various influencing factors. In addition, the parametric analyses suggest that the load sharing ratios to minimize the differential settlement of piled raft are ranging from 15 to 48% for friction pile and from 15 to 54% for end-bearing pile. The recommendations can provide a basis for an optimum design that would be applicable to piled rafts taking into account the load sharing characteristics.

The piled-raft foundation, a new design concept, is one of the most effective kinds of foundation for reducing settlement of structures. An alternative piled-raft system with disconnection cap and a sand cushion between the pile and raft was also investigated to compare the influence of ultimate bearing capacity and settlement. Load-settlement relation curves were used to evaluate the ultimate bearing capacity. In the numerical analyses, a plane strain elasto-plastic finite element model (Mohr-Coulomb model) was used to present the response of the piled-raft foundation.

For the structural foundation above the soft clay layer conditions, the design charts are first presented for the evaluation of both bearing capacity and total settlement in the basic raft foundation system. wad settlement relationship curves are used to evaluate the ultimate soil bearing capacity. The total settlement is evaluated by applying various traditional factors into the ultimate bearing capacity. Then, the parametric studies are carried out for the piled-raft foundation system. In the numerical analysis, the elasto-pastic finite element model(Mohr-Coulomb model) is used to present the foundation response and design charts, which enable the determination of the raft size and pile length and spacing.

Piled raft 기초는 연약지반상에서 과도한 침하와 raft 및 말뚝의 지지력 산정 문제 등으로 적합한 기초는 아닌 것으로 알려져 왔으나 최근 국내외에서 연약지반내 구조물 시공이 증대되면서 연약지반상 piled raft 기초에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 연약지반에 시공된 piled raft기초의 거동을 분석하였으며 이를 위해 ABAQUS를 이용한 3차원 유한요소 해석을 실시하였다. 해석 시 하중은 등분포하중과 집중하중을 각각 적용하였으며 동일한 조건의 군말뚝과 piled raft 기초 및 다양한 말뚝 배치를 갖는 piled raft 기초를 대상으로 수행하였다. 본 연구결과, 하중형태, 다양한 말뚝 배치 및 근입 깊이에 대한 각각의 침하 및 하중분담특성을 비교, 분석하였으며 이를 통해 연약지반상의 piled raft 기초의 특성을 파악하였다.

In the design of a foundation, settlement of the foundation may exceed allowable design criteria even with a competent bearing stratum. In such a case, a piled-raft foundation system may be adopted using piles as settlement reducing component. In this paper, Disconnected Piled Raft Foundation (DPRF) system, which installs disconnected piles underneath the raft and uses the piles as ground reinforcements, is studied as a cost effective design method against the classical piled-raft foundation system. To this end, large size loading tests were carried out on weathered ground changing area replacement ratio and length of piles. The results indicated that the settlement of the reinforced ground was reduced by 34~87% and the allowable bearing pressure increased by 70% on average from those of the unreinforced original ground, respectively. The correlating formula between the area replacement ratio and the load bearing ratio of piles were derived from the test results and numerical analysis. From the correlation, a design method determining the size and the quantity of the disconnected piles to enhance the bearing capacity of original ground to the desired value was proposed based on one inch settlement criteria.

Ground subsidence, which is a current concern that affects piled raft foundations, has occurred at a high rate in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, due primarily to groundwater pumping for water supply. In this study, the groundwater level (GWL) change affect on a piled raft foundation was investigated based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM) using the PLAXIS 3D software. The GWL change due to global groundwater pumping and dewatering were simulated in PLAXIS 3D based on the GWL reduction and consolidation. Settlement and the pile axial force of the piled raft foundation in Ho Chi Minh subsoil were investigated based on the actual design and the proposed optimal case. The actual design used the piled foundation concept, while the optimal case applied a pile spacing of 6D using a piled raft concept to reduce the number of piles, with little increased settlement. The results indicated that the settlement increased with the GWL reduction, caused by groundwater pumping and dewatering. The subsidence started to affect the piled raft foundation 2.5 years after construction for the actual design and after 3.4 years for the optimal case due to global groundwater pumping. The pile's axial force, which was affected by negative skin friction, increased during that time.

본 연구에서는 국내외 적용 중인 압밀지수의 값을 조사하고 조사된 표준편차 범위를 분석하였으며, 편차에 따른 침하량을 계산하였다. 또한 지반에서 내재한 불확실성 변수인 압축지수가 연약지반 처리공법 하에서 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 수치해석을 통해 프리로딩 공법, 배수촉진 공법, 치환 공법을 적용하여 성토단계별 침하거동을 분석하였고, 추가적으로 장기적인 침하에 안정적인 Piled Raft 공법을 추가로 분석하여 침하거동을 파악하였다. 그 결과, 최종침하량에 따른 평균분석 결과는 해석 값의 평균, 해석값의 최대 최소의 중간값, 평균 압축지수(Cc=0.35)를 사용할 경우에 발생된 침하량이 상이한 것으로 나타났다. 최종침하량에 따른 변동계수의 비교 분석 결과, 각 공법별로 시간에 따라 변동계수의 차이를 보였다. 그 중 Piled Raft 공법이 시간의 경과와 상관없이 일정한 변동계수 값을 보이며, 다른 공법보다 낮은 값으로 불확실성 지반정수의 압축지수에 영향이 가장 적은 것으로 확인되었다.

조립토 piled raft 시스템은 상부 raft 기초 하부의 연약지반을 조립토 다짐말뚝으로 보강하여 침하를 감소시키고 또한 지지력 증대를 도모하는 효과적인 공법으로 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는, 말뚝 사이의 상호작용 효과 및 말뚝과 raft의 상호작용 효과 등을 고려하고 또한 판이론(plate theory)을 토대로, raft와 기초지반 사이 접촉면에서 발생하는 지점별 불균등 침하량을 예측하기 위한 유한요소 해석기법을 제시하였다. 제시된 해석기법은 조립토 piled raft 시스템의 다양한 배치형태에 대해 지점별 침하량 예측이 가능하며, 제시된 기법의 적합성 확인을 위해 예측된 침하량을 기존 연구결과(김 등, 1999)와 비교 분석하였다. 이외에도 제시된 기법을 이용하여, 조립토 piled raft 시스템의 배치형태별 거동특성 분석이 이루어 졌으며, 또한 침하량 감소효과를 관련 설계변수와 연계하여 분석을 수행하였다.
