LOAD TESTS OF PILED RAFT MODELS WITH DIFFERENT PILE HEAD CONNECTION CONDITIONS AND THEIR ANALYSES

[摘要] References(14)Cited-By(3)A series of experimental and analytical studies on the behaviours of model pile groups and model piled rafts in dry sand subjected to static vertical loading and static cyclic horizontal loading were carried out in order to investigate the influence of various pile head connection conditions between the raft and the piles on the behaviours of the foundations models and to examine the applicability of an simplified analytical method to simulate the load tests. In the load tests, the behaviours of the model foundations were investigated in detail, with particular focus on cyclic horizontal loading, and behaviour such as horizontal stiffness and the rotation of the foundation, the load proportions between the raft and the piles, and the bending moments and shear forces generated in the piles. A simplified three-dimensional deformation analysis method was used to simulate the experiments.
