Abstract

One of the construction methods applied as a pier foundation type is a single type cast-in-place pile. In applying a pile bent system as a foundation type, the main concern in designing can be said to secure the lateral bearing capacity of pile structure in system. In addition, to increase the rigidity of the pile structure, a method of increasing the lateral bearing capacity by reinforcing the pile structure with a casing has been used. However, although the reinforcing effect and appropriate reinforcing length of casing may vary depending on the soil conditions, there is insufficient studies on this, and for this reason, the entire pile structure in a pile bent system is reinforced with a casing, in the field. In addition, if the length of the entire pile is reinforced with a casing, it may lead to delays in construction and increase in construction costs. That is, in order to more effectively reinforce the pile structure with a casing, it is necessary to study the lateral bearing characteristics of the reinforced pile structure in system. And it should be determined the appropriate reinforcing length of the casing from the evaluated bearing characteristics. Therefore, in this study, the lateral bearing characteristics of piles applied with the reinforcing length of casing for each condition were evaluated through a numerical analysis. And, based on the analysis results, the appropriate reinforcing length of casing was proposed. As a result of the study, it was found that in order to effectively increase the lateral bearing capacity of pile structure, the reinforcing length of casing should be applied twice the influence range of the bending behavior of the pile, 1/β.

교각기초 형식으로 적용되는 기초공법 중 하나는 단일형 현장타설말뚝이다. 이 말뚝에 대한 설계 시 주된 관심사항은 말뚝체에 작용하는 수평지지력 확보 여부이다. 현재 말뚝체의 강성증가를 위해 외부강관으로 말뚝체를 보강하여 말뚝의 수평지지력을 증가시키는 방법이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 지반조건에 따라 외부강관의 보강효과와 적정 강관보강 길이가 달라질 수 있음에도 이에 대한 연구가 미흡하여 현장에서는 대부분 말뚝체 전체를 외부강관으로 보강하고 있다. 그러나 시스템 내의 전체 말뚝길이를 외부강관으로 보강할 경우 공사 지연과 공사비의 증가로도 이어질 수 있다. 따라서 좀 더 효과적으로 외부강관을 활용하기 위해서는 외부 강관으로 보강된 말뚝체를 대상으로 말뚝의 수평지지특성을 평가하여 강관의 적정한 보강길이를 결정해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수치해석방법을 통해 각 조건별 외부강관의 보강길이를 적용한 단일형 현장타설말뚝의 말뚝체에 대한 지지특성을 평가하고, 이 해석결과를 바탕으로 외부강관의 적정 보강길이를 제안하였다. 본 연구결과, 단일형 현장타설말뚝의 말뚝체에 대한 수평지지력을 효과적으로 증가시키기 위해서는 강관의 보강길이가 말뚝의 휨거동 영향범위인 1/β의 2배를 적용해야 하는 것으로 나타났다.
