Recently, pile foundations were constructed in rough or soft ground than ground of well condition thus it is important that prediction of ultimate bearing capacity and calculation of proper safety factor applied pile foundation design. This study were performed to dynamic loading tests for the thirty two piles at four different construction sites and selected pile at three site were performed to static loading tests and then compare with measured value and value of static and dynamic loading tests. The load-settlement curve form the dynamic loading tests by CAPWAP was very similar to the results obtained from the static load tests. Based on dynamic and static loading tests, the reliability of pile-driving formula were analyzed and then suggested with proper safety factor for prediction of allowable bearing capacity in this paper.

4개 현장에 실물크기의 강관말뚝과 PC 및 PHC 말뚝의 축방향에 대한 지지거동을 알아보기 위하여, 강관말뚝에 스트레인게이지를 부착하고 항타시 계측기 손상여부를 조사하면서 동재하시험을 수행하였다. 아울러 동일한 말뚝에 대하여 2일과 7일 경과후에 정재하시험을 실시하여 하중-침하량 거동과 주면 및 선단지지력을 분리 측정하였다. 그 결과, CAPWAP 해석에 Davisson방법을 적용하여 구한 강관말뚝의 허용지지력은 정재하시험에서 구한 허용지지력 보다 약 2~33%정도 크게 나타났다. 그리고 정재하시험 결과에서 구한 산술평균한 허용지지력은 CAPWAP해석에서 Davisson's offset방법으로 구한 허용지지력보다 극한지지력에 FS=2.5를 적용하여 구한 허용지지력에 더 근접하는 경향을 보였다. 또한, 단위면적당 주면지지력은 깊이가 증가함에 따라 증가하였고, 말뚝선단부 1~2m 이내에서 발휘되는 비율이 상당히 큰 것으로 나타났다.

초고층 건축물 기초의 고용량 하중 지지능력을 확인할 수 있는 가장 현실적인 방안인 고유압방식의 고용량 양방향 말뚝재하시험을 2개 현장에서 실시하였다. 고유압 복동식 양방향 말뚝재하시험은 정재하시험 시 재하용량 한계와 현장조건의 제약을 극복 할 수 있는 가장 현실적인 방안으로 볼 수 있었으며 고용량이 필요한 시험말뚝에 대한 재하시험에 매우 유용한 시험방법으로 판단되었다. 2개의 사례에서 계산된 설계하중 충족비는 각각 3.3, 2.1이었으므로 사례(P-2)에서 1방향 재하하중을 다소 작게 재하하였더라면 말뚝기초의 안정성을 실증적으로 확인하지 못하였을 것으로 판단되었다. 초고용량의 양방향 말뚝재하시험에서 설정한 최대하중까지 재하하더라도 말뚝 및 지반의 극한상태를 확인하는 것은 쉽지 않았으므로 대구경 현장타설말뚝의 극한지지력을 추정하기 위하여 2개의 고용량 대구경 현장타설말뚝에 대한 수치해석을 실시하였다.

평판재하시험으로 부터 실제 기초지반의 지지력 및 침하량을 산정할 때, 재하판과 실제기초의 크기가 상이하므로 인해 일어나는 영향, 즉 Scale effect가 고려되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 재하폭에 따른 지지력 및 침하량의 변화특성을 분석하기 위해 5종류의 모형기초지반을 형성하고, 크기가 각각 l0cm, 15cm, 20cm, 25cm인 4가지 크기의 정사각형 평판으로 재하시험을 실시하여 재하폭에 따른 지지력 및 침하 특성을 분석하였다. 재하시험을 실시하여 분석한 결과, 순수모래 지반에서는 재하폭이 커지면 극한지지력은 증가하였으나 Scale effect에 관한 기존의 식과 같이 비례적으로 증가하지는 않았고, 순수점토 지반에서도 재하폭이 커지면 극한지지력은 약간 증가하여 재하폭에 무관하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 재하폭과 침하량의 관계를 보면 순수모래 지반은 재하폭이 커지면 침하량은 증가하였으나 Terzaghi and Peck(1967)의 실험식에 의한 값만큼 증가하지는 않았으며, 순수점토 지반에서도 재하폭이 커지면 침하량은 증가하였으나 Scale effect에 관한 기존의 식과 같이 비례적으로 증가하지는 않았다.

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.

This paper presents a combined experimental, numerical, and analytical study on elliptical concrete-filled steel tubular (E-CFT) and rebar-stiffened elliptical concrete-filled steel tubular (RE-CFT) subjected to axial loading. ABAQUS was used to establish 3D finite element (FE) models for the composite columns and the FE results agreed well with the experimental results. It was found that the ultimate load-bearing capacity of RE-CFT stub columns was 20% higher than that of the E-CFT stub columns. Such improvement was attributed to the reinforcement effects from the internal rebar-stiffeners, which effectively enhanced the confinement effect on the core concrete, thereby significantly improved both the ultimate bearing capacity and the ductility of the E-CFT columns. Based on the results, equations were also established in this paper to predict the bearing capacities of E-CFT and RE-CFT stub columns under axial loading. The predicted results agreed well with both experimental and numerical results, and had much higher accuracy than other available methods.

본 논문에서는 jet grouting 공법을 적용한 파형 마이크로파일의 지지력 향상 효과 및 거동 특성을 분석하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 각 말뚝의 형상에 따른 거동을 비교하기 위해 일반 마이크로파일, 파형이 없는 jet grouted 말뚝 및 네 종류의 파형 마이크로파일의 모델을 제작하여 원심모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 일반 마이크로파일 대비 파형 마이크로파일의 지지력 향상 효과를 확인 할 수 있었으며, 특히 파형의 간격이 상대적으로 좁은 말뚝의 지지력 개선 효과가 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 기존의 재하시험에 의한 지지력 예측 및 평가 방법을 토대로 파형 마이크로 파일의 지지력 산정 방안을 검토한 결과 P-S 곡선법과 25.4mm 전침하량기준이 파형 마이크로파일의 거동을 합리적으로 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper consists of two parts; the first part describes the laboratory work concerning the behavior of lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubes (LACFT). Based on eccentricity tests, fifty-four specimens with different slenderness ratios (L/D= 3, 7, and 14) were tested. The main parameters varied in the test are: load eccentricity; steel ratio; and slenderness ratio. The standard load-strain curves of LACFT columns under eccentric loading were summarized and significant parameters affecting LACFT column's bearing capacity, failure mechanism and failure mode such as confinement effect and bond strength were all studied and analyzed through the comparison with predicted strength of concrete filled steel tube columns (CFT) using the existing codes such as AISC-LRFD (1999), CHN DBJ 13-51-2003 (2003) and CHN CECS 28:90 (1990). The second part of this paper presents the results of parametric study and introduces a practical and accurate method for determination of the maximum compressive strength of confined concrete core ($f_{max}$), In addition to, the study of the effect of aspect-ratio and length-width ratio on the yield stress of steel tubes ( $f_{sy}$) under biaxial state of stress in CFT columns and the effect of these two factors on the ultimate load carrying capacity of axially loaded CFT/LACFT columns.

Any structure constructed on the earth is supported by the underlying soil. Foundation is an interfacing element between superstructure and the underlying soil that transmits the loads supported by the foundation including its self weight. Foundation design requires evaluation of safe bearing capacity along with both immediate and long term settlements. Weak and compressible soils are subjected to problems related to bearing capacity and settlement. The conventional method of design of footing requires sufficient safety against failure and the settlement must be kept within the allowable limit. These requirements are dependent on the bearing capacity of soil. Thus, the estimation of load carrying capacity of footing is the most important step in the design of foundation. A number of theoretical approaches, in-situ tests and laboratory model tests are available to find out the bearing capacity of footings. The reliability of any theory can be demonstrated by comparing it with the experimental results. Results from laboratory model tests on square footings resting on sand are presented in this paper. The variation of bearing capacity of sand below a model plate footing of square shape with variation in size, depth and the effect of permissible settlement are evaluated. A steel tank of size $900mm{\times}1200mm{\times}1000mm$ is used for conducting model tests. Bearing capacity factor $N_{\gamma}$ is evaluated and is compared with Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen and Vesic's $N_{\gamma}$ values. From the experimental investigations it is found that, as the depth of sand cushion below the footing ($D_{sc}$) increases, ultimate bearing capacity and settlement values show an increasing trend up to a certain depth of sand cushion.

This paper presents a failure type assessment curve method to judge the failure type of transmission tower segments. This novel method considers the equivalent static wind load characteristics and the transmission tower members' load-bearing capacities based on numerical simulations. This method can help judge the failure types according to the relative positions between the actual state points and the assessment curves of transmission tower segments. If the extended line of the actual state point intersects with the horizontal part's assessment curve, the segment would lose load-bearing capacity due to the diagonal members' failure. Another scenario occurs when the intersection point is in the oblique part, indicating that the broken main members have caused the tower segment to fail. The proposed method is verified by practical engineering case studies and static tests on the scaled tower segments.
