Structural Modeling Experiments and Field Adaption Evaluation of Steel Cap for Performance Development of PHC Pile

PHC Pile 두부 성능개선을 위한 파일캡의 구조모델시험 및 현장 적용성 평가

In this study, we concerned the steel cap and head part arrangement of PHC pile structure to complement existing construction process which have the defects such as highly hazardous circumstance for safety concerns and retard a term of works. The steel cap developed for supplement the stiffness between extend foundation and contact section of PHC pile that is based on structural theory. The experiments have been performed to evaluate the characteristics of behavior between head part of PHC pile using steel cap and extend foundation.
