Reliability Based Stability Analysis for Pile Foundation

신뢰성이론에 의한 말뚝기초의 안정해석

Current steel pile foundation design is bared an WSD, but the reliability based design method is more rational than the WSD. For this reason, this study proposes a reliability Index of the pile foundation by LFD which is most common type of pile foundation, and also proposes the theoretical bases of nominal safety factors of stability analysis by introducing the reliability theory. The measured bearing capacity data are analyzed to the descriptive statistics and classified into the four models of uncorrelated -normal(UNNO), uncorrelated -nonnormal(UNNN), correlated -normal(CONO), and correlated nonnormal (CONN). This study presents the comparisons of reliability index and check points using the AFSOM with respect to the four models as well as BASIC program.
