To test the effect of various pile tip shape series of model scale loading tests were carried out on test piles with special pile tips. Special pile tips were made using the 3D printer and were attached to the bottom end of the test pile for loading tests. The pile tips were made to have 30°, 45°, 60° inclined tips, as well as a rounded tip. The main objective of the test was to observe the effect of various pile tip shapes on settlement and penetrability of the pile. Moreover, a numerical model simulating the pile loading test carried out in this study was established and verified based on the loading test results. From this, the stress concentration around the pile tip was investigated. This will allow us to analyze the decrease of stress concentration around the pile tip which is the main cause of the pile tip damage during pile installation. However, modifying the pile tip shape will eventually increase the settlement of the pile. By estimating the degree of increase in pile settlement, the viability and the efficiency of the pile shape modification was judged. In addition, case studies on the effect of different pile tip shape and ground conditions on pile settlement and stress dispersion was conducted.

In the bi-directional pile load test (BD PLT) for pile load test of Mega foundation, loading capacity specification were not specified exactly. Therefore there are so many confusions and variations of maximum 2 times in loading capacity are come out. In this study, specifications of bi-directional pile load test (BD PLT) were considered. Based on cases of the bi-directional pile load test performed in domestic areas, maximum equivalent test load, test load increasing ratio and sufficiency ratio of design load were analyzed. It can be known that the loading capacity specification of bi-directional pile load test must be defined as 1-directional test load that is established as more than 2 times of design load.

Pile load test is good for estimating pile bearing capacity, but using this method is limited by time and cost required. Dynamic and static method is more convenient and economical, but confidence of estimated value by dynamic and static method are lower than that of pile load test. After being compared pile bearing capacity data obtained from pile load test with those of other two methods, the results from this study were summarised as follows. For allowable bearing capacity values greater than 175t per pile, bearing capacity acquired from static method was higher than that acquired from pile load test, whereas bearing capacity acquired from pile load test was higher than that acquired from static method for values under 175 per pile. It was that variance of bearing capacity was large when bearing capacity obtained by dynamic method was higher than 250t. Also bearing capacity based on dynamic method was higher than that based on pile load test. Allowable bearing capacity get from dynamic method suggested that carefull precautions are necessary in application for allowable bearing capacity values higher than 2S0ton per pile.

Due to the sea-crossing bridge span is generally large and main pier pile foundations are located in deep water and carry large vertical load, sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations bearing mechanism and load deformation characteristics are still vague. Authors studied the vertical bearing properties of sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations through pilot load tests. Large tonnage load test of Qingdao Bay Bridge main pier pile program is designed by using per-stressed technique to optimize the design of anchor pile reaction beam system. Test results show that the design is feasible and effective. This method can directly test bearing capacity of main pier pile foundations, and analysis bearing behaviors from test results of sensors which embedded in the pile. Through test study the vertical bearing properties of main pier pile foundation and compared with the generally short pile, author summarized the main pier pile foundations vertical bearing capacity and the main problem of design and construction which need to pay attention, and provide a reliable basis and experience for sea-crossing bridge main pier pile foundations design and construction.

Pile Bridge Abutments constructed on a soft base are affected by a lateral flow. Laterl flow pressure acting on Pile is very difficult to calculate because of, interation of ground and Pile. So, it is different to estimate displacement of Pile Bridge Abutments. This paper studied about possibility of the displacement estimation of Pile Bridge Abutments by using the equivalent sheet pile wall theory that was Randolph proposed in 1981. Analysis program through using the SAGE CRISP that is FEM program. Analysis data used Centrifuge test results of Springman(1991), Bransby(1997) and Ellis(1997)'s paper. In conclusion, maxium displacement that is carried out by centrifuge test and numerical analysis has occured at the head of pile, as well as Maximum displacement of pile is closely similar. But the moment acting on pile of numerical analysis is under estimated compare to the centrifuge test. Through the comparative study, it is found that displacement estimation by equivalent sheet pile wall is in relatively good agreement with the results of centrifuge test.

Large tonnage pile foundation load test system is designed in this paper by using pre-stressed technique to optimize the design of anchor pile reaction beam system, in which project pile can be successfully taken as anchor pile. The test results show that the cracks and excessive deformations of the prestressed anti-force device designed in this study have not occurred, and the prestressed tendons of the anchor pile ensure that the anchor pile will not be pulled and fractured, and the prestressed tendons can be reused, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of the test. This test method can directly test bearing capacity of long rock-socketed piles, and analysis bearing behaviors from test results of sensors which embedded in the pile. Through test studied, authors summarized the vertical bearing characteristics of long rock-socketed piles and the main problems that should be paid attention to during design and construction, and provided reliable solutions.

In this study, static pile load tests with load transfer measurement were accomplished in the field. Yield pile capacity (or ultimate pile capacity) determined by load-settlement-time relationship was determined and axial load transfer behavior was analyzed. In the test for the four test piles were behaved as end bearing pile but ratios of skin friction to total pile capacity were 27%∼33%.

This study results of performed field load test in order to estimate the best pile length assessment and allowable bearing capacity of the pile foundation. End of initial driving(EOID) and restrike of pile dynamic loading tests were performed to calculate allowable bearing capacity of the experimental pile side and results were compared with the allowable bearing capacity estimated by theory. The results of allowable bearing capacity by EOID test is $1.08{\sim}1.21$ in the range of compared to the capacity calculated by the Structure Foundation Design Criterion. Allowable bearing Capacity by restrike of pile dynamic loading test is $1.32{\sim}1.48$ in the range of compared to the Structure Foundation Design Criterion. The Foundation Design Criterion underestimated the pile capacity. If the bearing capacity calculated by Structure Foundation Design Criterion is 100, EOID of pile dynamic loading test is 116, restrike of pile dynamic loading test is 138 for 20m pile used in this experimental.

국내의 경우 종래의 말뚝기초의 설계에서는 주로 선단지지력에만 의존하는 설계가 이루어져 왔으나 현장에서 실제 크기 말뚝에 대한 하중전이측정실험이 이루어진 이후 많은 하중전이측정실험 자료들을 통하여 마찰력이 크게 발휘되는 것이 밝혀져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 항타강관말뚝 및 대구경 현장타설말뚝의 재하시험 시 측정된 축하중전이 사례들을 분석하여 재하시험방법에 따른 말뚝기초의 하중지지양상을 구명하였다. 사례 말뚝들의 평균마찰력 분담율을 말뚝의 종류, 재하시험방법, 상대근입길이, 말뚝의 직경, 지반의 종류 등의 함수로 상관관계를 나타내는 것은 곤란하였다. 평균 마찰력 분담율은 50% 이상을 상회하는 것으로 나타나고 있었으므로 사례 말뚝기초는 대체로 마찰지지말뚝으로 거동하는 경우가 많은 것을 볼 수 있었으며 극히 일부 사례말뚝은 혼합지지말뚝으로 거동하였다.

강관말뚝은 오랫동안 다양한 깊은 기초에 적용되어 왔으나 최근 강재가격의 상승으로 균질한 품질, 큰 강성, 용이한 시공 등의 장점에도 불구하고 기술자들이 자유롭게 적용 못하고 있다. 그러므로 강관말뚝으로 시공할 경우에는 초기 항타후 계획고 이상에서 절단된 강관을 재활용할 수 있다면 공사비를 절감하는데에 기여할 수 있다. 이러한 사유로 인하여 시공자들은 항타후 절단된 강관말뚝을 새롭게 시공할 말뚝과 함께 시공하고자 하나 명확한 정량적인 항타후 강관말뚝의 거동특성의 부재 및 재활용을 위한 적절한 대응방법과 기준의 부재로 인하여 말뚝의 건전도 문제, 문제 발생시의 대응방법 부재 등이 실제 현장에서 종종 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 신규 강관말뚝과 사용자 하중 또는 극한 하중을 받은 강관말뚝에 대하여 현장에서 수행한 말뚝 동재하시험과 실내에서의 피로시험, 인장시험, 샤르피 충격시험을 실시하여 그 결과를 비교분석하였다. 시험결과로부터 허용응력 수준의 항타응력이 발생한 사용 하중조건에서는 항복강도의 변화가 2% 이하이며 최대 허용항타응력($0.9{\sigma}_y$)을 항타횟수가 3000회까지 받은 극한 하중조건에서는 항복강도의 변화가 5% 이하인 것을 확인할 수 있다. 또한 각 변수의 민감도를 확인하기 위하여 통계분석을 실시하였다. 모든 실험결과로부터 강관말뚝의 재활용 가능여부에 대한 판단 기준은 항복강도의 변화 보다는 오히려 샤르피충격에너지, 용접부에서의 강도변화 및 품질관리, 강관의 단면 변화, 항타후 강관의 국부좌굴에 기인하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
